Hello there,

How is it possible extract 2 or more bin files using Inno ? and where section need I to put the code ? [Files] section ?

zyo you mean you still have data1.cab on 1st, and data2.cab + data3.cab on 2nd DVD? If yes, try to prepare cabs once again.

mhcvel I don't know what type of archive is your bin file. This script supports freearc, rar and zip archives. if this bin is one of them, you may use yener90's Custom Installer. Archives to unpack are listed in [ExtractSettings] section of setup.ini

yeap thats correct, only contents of data1.cab and data2.cab has been rearranged (but they still have all the files under Data folder) with m0 compression.

I have tried compressing them a couple of times but the installer still gets stuck. gonna try again later today.

zyo did you use another than -mx -ld800m method? I've noticed this script (or maybe freearc?) doesn't like huge files/lot-of-files arhives packed with some method (unfortunately i don't remember which one was that). Try another "safe" compression, i.e. -m0 or maybe prepare more smaller cabs and test.

zyo 13-02-2012 23:05

Yeap Im sure it has something to do with the size of the cab files. I have used -m0 on both cab files and data2 alway stuck at the end of installation process.

zyo let me see your setup.ini as well as your file structure on both DVDs

zyo 15-02-2012 00:59

I didnt change anything in the setup.ini (Do I need to?)
in data1.cab

data2.cab

BAMsE 15-02-2012 02:29

zyo I mean file structure on each DVD/iso not in cab file. And where is data3.cab?

zyo 15-02-2012 20:29

disc1

disc2
http://i44.tinypic.com/33bz7rk.jpg


The structures are the same I blieve

BAMsE 16-02-2012 05:58

I have no idea what is wrong :confused: If I were you I'd try to repack data2.cab and data3.cab to i.e. 4 smaller ones or even try to compress texture packs into separate cabs. If you prepare more cabs remember to edit setup.ini and list them.

zyo 24-02-2012 12:47

I repacked the files into 7 smaller cabs and it still hangs on disc 2

This install is quite buggy tbh...if there is anyway to do an innosetup that will be much better.

peterf did an inno conversion as well but it uses inno/freearc/precomp/srep to all fit on 1 dvd5 just look down a few posts & you'll find it.

zyo 24-02-2012 14:15

I dont think with high res pack it will fit 1DVD5 anymore (they are 2GB in size alone)

BAMsE 24-02-2012 15:35

OK. Maybe give some extra info:
- it gives you some error message or it just stops and won't go further?
- it's happening always at the same position? always the same files are unpacked?
- is it unpacking whole archive (and stucks on proceeding to the next one) or only part of it?

zyo 24-02-2012 22:06

always the same position about 95% of the installation
there is no error message, whole thing just stopped, Im installing it from a SSD mounted with daemontools for testing and the harddrive is not active at that point.
I wouldnt know which archive it stopped at unfortunately likely to be middle of a large file write...

another thing is once it stopped I cant cancel the installation anymore it doesnt freeze but doesnt roll back either.
