i want to compress a game and split it in 1gb using freearc or any good compression tool that has smallest compression size.

i want to name it setup-1.bin and so on...

then make a simple/default setup.exe + autorun.inf

and finally put it together in .iso.

//please help me. i'll make sure that i learn fast so i dont waste your time much.

Well, you didn't tick self extractor.
You were suppose to tick it.

unpack.exe is what you use to unpack the data.

you can just go ahead and rename the file.

but if you want a real setup.
compile any one of these, then just place the output exe near the data, done.

and if you want something simple, just stick to the SFX.

is there any way to customize these fields??? maybe read 1 and 2 from Setup.ini and 3 from eula.txt or something like that?
