Thanks to Mickey1s for the share. I've included the compiler you need to build the script.

Hello Masquerade

Can I get support help from you about preparing a CODEX Installer Script that can work compatible with DiskSpan_GUI?

Ya this is the one I have! But only LZMA works with it! I cant get any other compression to work when installing "unsupported". Seprep etc does not work with this installer

You need to add the decompressors you want to the installer.

Ah ok awesome. Do i need to also add in the code to the script? Never done that before xD

Hello, when I create the .bin and run the program I get an ISDone.dll error, is there a solution?

[Masquerade]

^^
Thanks for that overwhelming amount of information :mad:

The CODEX installer uses a custom unarc.dll so you need to add the unarc.dll from.your copy of FreeArc to unpack your archives.

but the file is in the setup files folder

CODEX installer compatible with DSG 2.0.2.1+

Thanks for your amazing work, I was surprised to find out that both RUNE and PLAZA installers use the same code base.

I chose to make a convenient repository which contains all the tools requires and instructions to compile it. I myself struggled a little. Took me few hours to figure out that you need a modified version of InnoSetup and when I got the original Enhanced Edition, it was still missing several functions and types so I dig deeper in fileforums until I finally found a version with these functions and types in place

The Repository (https://github.com/SolsticeSpectrum/CODEX-Installer)

Please let me know if I forgot something important in the repository or if I'm missing some credits in the README

[Dario06]

it seems that the DSG versions are not aligned with the Progressgauge :rolleyes:

[Dario06]

Try with the attached file.

perfect!
it works now :)


the code says if there is an error in isdone you have to go back to 100%, I'm right cesar?
or if it doesn't find isdone

if not ISDoneError then
begin
WizardForm.ProgressGauge.Position := 1000;
end;

end;
For some reason the native progress bar has a delay and when the wizardform is resized the bar does not update.
This causes the bar to return to 100% if no error occurs.

I made some changes and everything seems to work well cesar, I will use it for GTA5 evolved, Thanks for everything!

Hello dear friend, I used your installation, but how can I get more information?
Data.bin
I need 8 data, can you solve this problem?

CODEX Installer Script (DSG) attached.
- updated DSG module.

[fabrieunko]

I wanted to test this installer with a game that I have already compacted with DSG 2.0.2.1.
so I took my setup.dll which I decompressed with dsg and put all the files in Setup_DLL (from codex) and launched a build. but when I run the setup I get the following message: incompatible version of the CLS-DiskSpan.dll library



so I retested by putting back the original CLS-DISKSPAN.dll file (from codex) and I got the same error?
what to do to resolve the problem?
thanks in advance

Are you sure you compressed the game with v2.0.2.1 of DSG?
From what I remember it was in v2.0.2.0 that cls-diskspan.dll was changed, so maybe you used an older DSG to compress the game.
CODEX installer does not have a cls-diskspan.dll.
The Setup_DLL folder in the installer's psdts contains CLS-DiskSpan.dll which is the content generated by DSG in Setup.dll during compression of the sample that accompanies the installer.

actually I must have made a mistake... on the other hand I'm trying to translate the installer into French
but I can't find where to find the text of this page

I have another problem.. the files from the CODEX folder are not copied, and I don't have a shortcut on the desktop?

thank you Dario06 for your help I was able to translate everything into French

this version works for me

the codex folder does not have to have a shortcut on the desktop it seems to me, because it is a game Crack and only needs to be copied into the game directory, but if you like having it you can have everything you want, just create a shortcut in [Icons]

Other:
Copy Codex files
if (CurStep = ssPostInstall) and (chbCopyCrack.Checked) and not ISDoneError then begin
CopyCrack(ExpandConstant('{src}\CODEX'), ExpandConstant('{app}'));
end;

Copy Folder and Files

if (CurStep = ssPostInstall) and (chbCopyCrack.Checked) and not ISDoneError then begin
CopyCrack(ExpandConstant('{src}\CODEX'), ExpandConstant('{app}\CODEX'));
end;

Rename CODEX in your folder Crack:

CODEX
{src}\CODEX

SKiDROW
{src}\SKiDROW

It's my fault I forgot something it works..
