Good morning everybody,
first of all I ask your forgiveness for my english as I graduated years ago, therefore I don't speak english often ;)
My question is : how can I extract the content of a bin file given the fact that the setup structure contains :
setup.exe
setup-1.bin
setup-2.bin
setup-3.bin
In fact, I would like to modify their contents i.e. extract & replace files in them.
If anybody have the answer please, help me ;)
Kind regards.

This is the archive format of an installer software - Setup Factory, I think.

Thank you for your answer. I managed to extract all the content using Universal extractor. For instance, this setup has been created using Inno Setup Installeur (information given by Universal Extractor).
Now that i managed to extract those file... I have to find a way to :
1) Re-insert them
OR
2) Re-create the setup structure
Edit : Extracting the setup.exe with Universal Extractor gave me the Inno Setup code file

(Whoops, wrong guess.) Try Inno Setup (http://www.jrsoftware.org/isinfo.php) itself then! ;)

I tried Inno Setup, but when I compile the code I get some weird messages :
[Run]
Filename: "{src}\Redist\PhysX\PhysX_8.10.13_SystemSoftware.ex e"; StatusMsg: "{cm:InstallingPhysX}"; BeforeInstall: "PhysXInstall";
Filename: "{src}\Redist\DirectX9\dxsetup.exe"; Parameters: "/silent"; StatusMsg: "{cm:InstallingDirectX}"; Check: "DXInstall";
For instance, those two lines will induce :
Line 136 : Required function or procedure 'PhysXInstall' not found
Line 137 : Required function or procedure 'DXInstall' not found
The same appears with :
[Files]
Source: "{app}\data\Textures.vfs"; DestDir: "{app}\data"; BeforeInstall: "SetBackgroundImage('inst3')";
And here :
Line 17 : Required function or procedure 'SetBackgroundImage' not found
I read the entire source code and I didn't find any procedures nor functions with those names in it...
I suppose I may send the source code legally as without the file structure it wont be complete if needed to help me
PS : I'm working on a dvd9-dvd5 compression of a game implying setup.bin files, this is why I posted this message in the dvd9-dvd5. And I hope this method will conduce me to something that will allow us to compress more games using this kind of file struc.
