Inno Setup Repack 6.03

I upgraded my Inno Setup Repack to v6.03 (The link contain Lite e Full version).
To install skins packs extract SkinPack.rar from the same Inno Setup Repack FULL installer directory.

Hi ppl,

is there a constant for Users\Username\Saved Games ? I want to delete a folder in Saved Games but to no avail. I can't find that constant on the net.

I tried:

{Userprofile}\Saved Games
{%Userprofile%}\Saved Games
%Userprofile%\Saved Games
{Username}\Saved Games

Edit: The only way is writing down the full path in Setup.ini which is SaveGameFolder3=C:\Users\*****\Saved Games\

Not a very happy solution. I can't believe that the Inno Setup developer didn't include such constant.

You can use something like this:

Code:

function UpdateConstant(const S: String): String;

var

  strDocs: String;

  strSaves: String;

begin

  Result := ExpandConstantEx(S, 'savedgames', ExpandConstant('{userdocs}\My Games'));

  if (GetWindowsVersion shr 24 >= 6) and (Result = ExpandConstant('{userdocs}\My Games')) then

  begin

    RegQueryStringValue(HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, 'SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FolderDescriptions\{F42EE2D3-909F-4907-8871-4C22FC0BF756}', 'RelativePath', strDocs);

    RegQueryStringValue(HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, 'SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FolderDescriptions\{4C5C32FF-BB9D-43b0-B5B4-2D72E54EAAA4}', 'RelativePath', strSaves);

    StringChangeEx(Result, '\' + strDocs + '\My Games', '\' + strSaves, True);

  end;

end;

This function also expands the other constants normally:
>> MsgBox(UpdateConstant('{userdocs}'), mbInformation, MB_OK); {expands normally}
>> MsgBox(UpdateConstant('{savedgames}'), mbInformation, MB_OK);

Remembering that CIU already has an UpdateConstant function.
If it is to be used in the CIU script, change the function name such as UpdateConstant2.

Thanks, but where should I "squeeze" these lines in the script coz the compiler gives me an error... UpdateConstant is duplicate. :o

Change the name of the function and call the function using the new name.
Where do you want to use this constant savegames?
In which part of the script?

Man, you're confusing me. I'm not a inno-script pro ! :p ;)

Well, during the uninstalling process. I want a folder, created by the game, vanish from Saved Games folder. Btw, I'm using Win7 and the path is:

C:\Users\My Name\Saved Games\Metro Exodus

Sorry I know, I'm a pain in da ass. I suffer from perfectionism OCD, btw. It's nasty :o

Edit: I sorted it out in Setup.ini --> SaveGameFolder3=C:\Users\{username}\Saved Games\Metro Exodus ...aaaand the folder is gonsky ! I'm happy with it. Well, the only problem is
where Metro Exodus dumps this save game folder in Win10.

@Cesar m8, your priority is to fix the registry issue ! :D

Btw, Metro Exodus creats 3 folders and 2 registry entries during the first launch:

1. My Documents --> 4A Games
2. Users\Username\Appdata\Roaming --> CPY_Saves (ermmm...cough)
3. Users\Username\Saved Games --> Metro Exodus

Registry:

1. HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\4A-Games
2. HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-21-1998757662-2675839664-690416582-1000\Software\4A-Games

To remove the save folder inside the Saved Games folder using the key SaveGameFolder#= use {sd} to set a system drive:
SaveGameFolder3={sd}\Users\{username}\Saved Games\Metro Exodus

I will include a constant {savedgames} in the next CIU update.
If you want to change it in the current CIU script the text in red color.

Code:

function GetSavedGameFolder: String;

begin

  Result := ExpandConstant('{userdocs}\My Games');

  RegQueryStringValue(HKEY_CURRENT_USER, 'Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders', '{4C5C32FF-BB9D-43B0-B5B4-2D72E54EAAA4}', Result);

end;



function UpdateConstant(Current: String) : String;

begin

  Result := Current;

  if UninstallMode then

    StringChangeEx(Result, '{app}', UninstallPath, True)

  else

    StringChangeEx(Result, '{app}', WizardForm.DirEdit.Text, True);

  StringChangeEx(Result, '{savedgames}', GetSavedGameFolder, True);

  StringChangeEx(Result, '{win}', ExpandConstant('{win}'), True);

  StringChangeEx(Result, '{sys}', ExpandConstant('{sys}'), True);

  ...///The code goes on...

After code changed, use SaveGameFolder3={savedgames}\Metro Exodus

Great ! That makes things easier. Thanks ! :D

Btw, regarding registry. Yes, it works but as long as the subkey is empty, the uninstaller will delete it. But if it's not empty, it will remain.
Where is the switch in the script to make registry entries uninstall whether they're empty or not ?
Thanks mate for your work !

Will be released soon after some testing. Just letting you know.

CHANGELOG CIU 3.0.0.0.u7

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- Changed "ISDone.dll" to "ISDone 0.6 final - for FreeArc Alpha 2012" (2012-09-27).

- Removed "DLZ" compressor from CIU, because it's no longer needed.



- Updated decompressor RAR (UnRAR.dll) from v5.21 to v5.80

- Updated compressor/decompressor "ZStandard" from v1.43 to v1.44 (x64 + x86).

- Updated decompressor pZLib3 from v3.0.1 to v3.2.0 (Final release)

  >> Now pzLib3 supports DUAL mode for 32 or 64 bit operating systems.



- Fixed conflicts between all current compressors (Thanks to Simorq for help).

  >> It is now possible to activate all compressors (not recommended) without conflicting, but probably the compression will get worse.



- Added Ultra HD compatibility functionality (Resolutions above Full HD).

  >> When booting the installer verifies that the monitor's vertical resolution is greater than 1080.

  >> If true, it inserts compatibility information into the registry and automatically relaunches a new instance of the installer closing the original instance.

  >> If this compatibility mode has been used the installer will clear the registry information upon termination.



- Changed the key name of Exe64Path= to ExePath64= in [Executable#] sections (now use 64 always at the end of all compatibles keys).

- Changed sections name from [Title] to [PageTitle] and also [BigTitle] to [PageBigTitle].

- Changed alignment of the directory selection form (SelectFolderForm) to align with the installer center.

- Changed the text of the welcome page by removing unnecessary information by slightly decreasing the lag in the eastern languages on this page.



- Added new keys WorkDir= and WorkDir64= keys in the [Executable#] sections.

  >> The keys WorkDir= or WorkDir64= determine the "Start In" directory (Work Dir) of executable shortcut.

  >> Use the value "\" in the key WorkDir= or WorkDir64= to display the value as "{app}\<ExePath>\" with backslash at the end.



- Added some new keys in the [Executable#] section for additional information for GOG or UWP installers.

  >> For information about the new keys see the file "_Setup.ini" from the "Help" folder.



- Fixed BigTitle label display on installer pages (Before was not visible).

- Fixed some errors when using commented lines after key value in creator mode.

- Fixed unknown constant "usersendto" error when using Inno Setup version 5.59 or older.

- Fixed some bugs related to removing keys from the registry where subkeys have constants.



- Fixed the size of the installer window by moving to the top leading off the screen.

  > Prior to this fix, this action changes the height of the installer, and the buttons/labels disappear from the installer.



- Fixed SelectDirBrowseLabel position for when using negative values for MoveDirectoryInfo= key so that Edit does not overlap the label.

  >> SelectDirBrowseLabel now vents together to the top when using negative values on the MoveDirectoryInfo = key.



- Added new constant {savedgames} in keys SaveGameFolder#= to inform correct save game folder as "C:\Users\%username%\Saved Games".



- Added new key FirstBGImage= in all [Component#] sections.

  >> This functionality lets you specify the first slide show image for each component.

  >> When the component is not selected, images from the corresponding component key value to the next component key value will not be displayed in the slideshow.



- Added new key CenterInstaller= in [InterfaceSettings] section, default value is 1.

  >> This key allows you to center the screen or display the installer where the autorun page was.

PFX and CER files extension

does anyone know how to get work in.setup.ini with these two files extension? name.pfx and name.cer there is a section in setup ini ? if it is can someone give me an example? these 2 files is for forza horizon 3 and if i install these 2 files in order DLC1 and DLC2 works. thanks in advice

if those are just the normal dlc files, then they should be compressed with the game no need to have them specifically in setup.ini. Unless you mean that 'name' .pfx / .cer are for each game owner ...

It's me again ! :p

There is a tiny problem with UI in Win10. Black fonts on black background. Anyone else ?

And one more tiny problem. It's not showing the size in add/remove programs.

Thanks for reporting ...
This different window is probably displayed by DiskSpan, and then stays inside the DLL. Because it is displayed differently I can not explain. Maybe it's because ISDone DLL was created a long time ago with very old software (maybe) and the diskspan DLL is called by it.

As for the size not displayed... I am aware of this.
It would be easy to enter a key for i game size. but if using components this would have to be calculated depending on the component selected. This function will be included in version 3.0.0.1 (Remind me in the future).

I noticed 2 bugs in InstallerScript_3.0.0.0.u6:
1-Progress bar does'nt reach 100%. It's stuck at something like 70% but it doesn't affect installation process.
2-LogoAB2 in About page doesn't show no matter what value you put in Setup.ini.

There are 2 options to fix this.
1) Use the old progressbar mode by setting value 1 on the Stretch keys of both progressbar sections.

2) This is the recommended mode. Use different images for each bar (ProgressImg.png, ProgressBackground.png) and (ProgressImgSI.png, ProgressBackgroundSI.png). For each bar create the image with the exact width of the value that is displayed on the label (xxx x xxx) when running in progressbar mode.

I don't know if this is so, but to display Logo2.png on the about page requires the value of the key SmallLogoOpacity= in [AboutSettings] to be greater than 0... to display 100% opaque use value 255 on this key.
In the CIU 3.0.0.0.u6 [2019.10.30] theme installer is normally displaying the "LogoAB2.png" logo which is in the "Setup\About" folder. (PS: The default logo in theme installer does not mark Yener90 vertically).

If you want you can send me a pm with your project that I check for you.
