it finally works for me. :)

here is what i did..
compressions method
arc a -m0 data.arc "C:\Program Files\*"
precomp.exe -c- data.arc
srep.exe -m3f data.pcf data.srep
arc a -mx data.cab data.srep

precompver=0.42

[ExtractSettings]
FreeArcFile1=Data.cab;DestDir:{app};Disk:1;PrecSre p:1

i put the arc.ini in setup.cab (i modified arc.ini a little according to the method i used above).



no error this time.
i tried two times with full success.

Thanks for ur help Razor 12911

i want to make progress bar vertical at the right corner of the screen of installer..

is it possible?

Inno Setup uses old delphi so no. other wise you could have use RotationAngle Property but anything is possible in delphi.

not unless if you are using a custom graphic progress. PBProc

check on ImgPBSetPosition procedure

procedure ImgPBSetPosition(var PB :TImgPB; Percent :Extended);
begin
if PB.img1<>0 then begin
NewWidth:=Round(PB.MaxWidth*Percent/100);
if PB.Width<>NewWidth then begin
PB.Width:=NewWidth;
ImgSetPosition(PB.img1,PB.Left,PB.Top,PB.Width,PB. Height);
end;
end;
end;

substitute width with height

i will try it and will inform u soon.. :D

i follow ur instructions and now inno is giving me the following error
please have a look

find

MaxWidth : integer;

change it to

MaxHeight : integer;

its not working

after changing this
" MaxWidth : integer;

change it to

MaxHeight : integer; "



i cant follow ur first instruction..


and when i try without step one (ur first instruction) its not working.
its still same progress bar. :(

can u give me an example script with such progress bar?

hmm, It works.

Might consider adding this to my installer

function ImgPBCreate(hParent :HWND; bk, pb :ansistring; Left, Top, Width, Height :integer):TImgPB;
begin
Result.Left:=Left+1;
Result.Top:=Top+1;
Result.Width:=Width-2;
Result.Height:=0;
Result.MaxHeight:=Height-2;
if Length(pb)>0 then Result.img1:=ImgLoad(hParent,pb,Result.Left,Result .Top,0,Result.Height,True,False) else Result.img1:=0;
if Length(bk)>0 then Result.img2:=ImgLoad(hParent,bk,Left,Top,Width,Hei ght,True,False) else Result.img2:=0;
end;

procedure ImgPBSetPosition(var PB :TImgPB; Percent :Extended);
begin
if PB.img1<>0 then begin
NewHeight:=Round(PB.MaxHeight*Percent/100);
if PB.Height<>NewHeight then begin
PB.Height:=NewHeight;
ImgSetPosition(PB.img1,PB.Left,PB.Top,PB.Width,PB. Height);
end;
end;
end;

find

NewWidth and MaxWidth

and change them to

NewHeight and MaxHeight

they are under var

i am sorry to bother you again and again but still error.

i attached the image.

find MaxWidth and Change it to MaxHeight

it's under var

:( sorry i cant find it.

Here's the script with your request

i try this script and still the same progress bar (look at pic) and its not showing filling of bar with progress of installation (empty progress bar).

I have a problem: I use CI 8.5.7.4 and will 2 games integierd in the setup. The problem is, when users will install one game, the installer will makes shourtcuts for both games and not for one game. How can i fix the problem?


Greetings

hello
i have a question
how i can build own gui for game and build setup.exe and autorun.exe ???

You can do that with Winamp and Sound Forge...
/sarcasm off

I can see that you are new to the forums but, is it THAT hard to read First post of this topic before asking a question? Question for which you can find the answer on first page (at least most important parts)...

Second, most of the stuff is Stickied and can be found around this topic...

hi, how to create a multiple or triple executable?

///////////////////// SETUP SETTINGS //////////////////////

[InstallOptions]
ApplicationName=The Sims 3 Collection
Publisher=Electronic Arts
GameSize=33000
MyExecutableIconName=The Sims 3
MyExecutableName=TS3.exe
MyExecutablePath=Game\Bin
//The Sims 3 Ambitions
MyExecutableIconName2=The Sims 3 Ambitions
MyExecutableName2=TS3EP02.exe
MyExecutablePath2=Game\Bin
//The Sims 3 Fast Lane Stuff
MyExecutableIconName3=The Sims 3 Fast Lane Stuff
MyExecutableName3=TS3SP02.exe
MyExecutablePath3=Game\Bin
//The Sims 3 Generations
MyExecutableIconName4=The Sims 3 Generations
MyExecutableName4=TS3EP04.exe
MyExecutablePath4=Game\Bin

this is right? i can't figure it out..

loks right except

MyExecutableIconName3=The Sims 3 Fast Lane Stuff
MyExecutableName3=TS3SP02.exe shouldn't that be 03 ??

its not 3 its TS3SP02.exe in The Sims 3 Fast Lane Stuff game directory.

i tried the command nothing happen.

all exe's are in same folder Game\Bin ?

yes all exe's are in The Sims 3\Game\bin\TS3.exe
The Sims 3\Ambitions\Game\bin\TS3EP02.exe
The Sims 3\Fast Lane Stuff\Game\bin\TS3SP02.exe
The Sims 3\Generations\Game\bin\TS3EP04.exe

then each path has to point to the correct folder for each exe.

MyExecutableIconName=The Sims 3
MyExecutableName=TS3.exe
MyExecutablePath=The Sims 3\Game\bin
//The Sims 3 Ambitions
MyExecutableIconName2=The Sims 3 Ambitions
MyExecutableName2=TS3EP02.exe
MyExecutablePath2=The Sims 3\Ambitions\Game\bin
//The Sims 3 Fast Lane Stuff
MyExecutableIconName3=The Sims 3 Fast Lane Stuff
MyExecutableName3=TS3SP02.exe
MyExecutablePath3=The Sims 3\Fast Lane Stuff\Game\bin
//The Sims 3 Generations
MyExecutableIconName4=The Sims 3 Generations
MyExecutableName4=TS3EP04.exe
MyExecutablePath4=The Sims 3\Generations\Game\bin

hope it helps :)

i think left behind and I do not understand though repeatedly read,, whether you have video tutorial ?

The problem here: http://fileforums.com/showpost.php?p...&postcount=376 is exists furthermore but i have a new problem:

I will make a autorun menu with 3 games my problem is now, i can't change the "iconname" from the first "play" button (this should stand "Homeworld" not "Spielen") the other 2 buttons let too easily rename.

Here my setup.ini

I am using this script to compress my files:
Precomp version is 0.43.

and changed the values in setup.ini to this:
But still when I run the setup it doesn't install anything. What am I doing wrong?

I cant get the extraction to work at all. The setup just say installation finished without giving me a error. When i see the files in program files nothing has been installed.

@alley_u2

What version of CI you are using?

The latest one i.e 8.5.7.4

The thing is the setup is not giving me a error at all. I dont know what i am doing wrong. I previously used to work with blackbox script provided in this forum. Its like this script is not executing the extraction process at all.

You are using the old parameters. The current parameters are:
Add on Setup.ini in:

[InstallOptions]
PrecompVer=inside

And in:

[ExtractSettings]
FreeArcFile1=Data1.cab;DestDir:{app};Disk:1;
FreeArcFile2=Data2.cab;DestDir:{app};Disk:2;

Depends how many Data.cabs and DVDs you have.

Tried that before didnt work... Did as you said.

FYI:

Got the error [ExtractSettings2] should have been [ExtractSettings]

Yes, [ExtractSettings] :D

Is this compatible with precomp 0.43 and srep 32

Im not sure, i think not. To old version of CI.

So which is the latest one?? Cant see in the forum to download CIU version 2

Yes, because is exclusive version. You need to use CIU 1.0.0.6.

Anyway, will not have support to precomp 0.43, only 0.42 but srep 3.2 should work.

disc without compression chamber with CIU, and I want to do the installation, and which parts need to wipe innoda where you need to add this code I would like to add just the autorun and setup button on the visual and disk compression chamber, changing, etc. How do I use the CIU
I'm sorry for bad english
