Conversion Designer/Installer Creator 3.0 with pzlib v3 -verified working!!!! :D-
 

hi guys, kitsune here again. for any of you using IC 3.0 and getting the decompression failed -11 error code when using pzlib v3, and the 'crc does not match checksum!' error with zstd, i finally got them to work with IC 3.0, and had a clean install no errors. i am including my full IC 3.0 2800 R2 folder with my updated files, and it doesnt matter what file type you use, i tested both pzlib v3 and zstd on some .ogg files then made a sample setup.exe with it to see what happened and it installed clean, no errors at all during decompression!!!

just extract the attachment to your HD and voila, no more errors!

Thanks, catch you on all the flip side. enjoy making your new installs with pzlib v3 and zstd with IC 3.0, no more annoying crc or decomp failed errors!!

P.S. when adding your .bin files in the external resources section of IC, do -not- forget to select the proper precomp version that you used during compression with UltraArc.
i cannot stress this enough. if you used pzlib/precomp 0.38 when compressing your game in UltraArc, make sure you click on the 'precomp' drop down in IC and select 0.38!! likewise, if you used pzlib 0.42/reflate in UltraArc, make sure you click the dropdown in Installer Creator under external resources and choose 0.42! If you mix the two settings you will always get a decompression failed error during extraction. the 7zip attachment i included has the correct IC 3200 / UA 2800 folder structure and the files for pzlib and zstd properly placed so you wont have to go through the headaches of constant failures during decompression, just make sure you choose the exact same version of pzlib/precomp that you used in UA when compressing your game, otherwise it will not work!! thanks guys, have fun.

shortcut parameter
 

does anyone know how to put parameter to shortcut in installer creator?

did you try enter it under Resources/Tasks/ Commands slot ?

tried that doesnt work. game is PainKiller Hell and Damnation multi 11
by PROPHET and without this parameter "-seekfreeloadingpcconsole -fullscreen" not launching game at all from desktop

You can create a batch file where you add these launch arguments then convert it to exe file with Bat to exe converted application and in installer creator you put the game exe this new exe you created.
100% working

can you give me an example ? i'm new to this. Pls

i've did it .... thanks

can you send me a link of all the versions?

^ first post + 2nd post this page

Hey how can I edit an .ini file after installing the game in innoscript? Like for eg: After installing Assassin's creed II, there is an ini file in which you have to put the directory where you installed the game otherwise the game doesn't work.

About the icon not applying to .exe file, I'm havin the same problem. Tried both versions of IC, using valid icon file, windows 7 compatibility...nothing works. The icon applies to .exe correctly using ASIS 7.0.5.
I'm using windows 8.1 now, but when I used windows 7 (about a year and half ago) the icon applied correctly. Wondering if it might be a windows 8.1 problem?

no does the same in win 10, see post top of this page as well as previous pages too

Yeah, I saw that post and read every post here, that's why I tried windows 7 compatibility. I made previous repack with icon sticking to .exe successfully. I cannot do that with windows 8.1. Icon is valid, even tried 4 or 5 different icons...nothing. I don't have that problem with other install programs from here. Would love to know what the problem is.

it will never be fixed /fixable as OP no longer has source for this, so suggest start reading
Conversion Tutorial Index > http://www.fileforums.com/showthread.php?t=96782

lots of good information / programming to use to make your own...

@Kitsune1982, Thank you! Your Script.iss also fixed the problem I was having with Install Creator not attaching the icon file to compiled .exe file.

Also, thanks to Razor12911, great installer.

Can you tell any alternative to inno setup that can extract files compressed using arc I have tried advance installer and setup factory they can extract files but using .bat file I want them to extract like inno setup so can anyone help

What is the method for recompile the script of compiler ?
Sorry for my english.
I solved it ;)

Hi,

This is my first post here and i must say that I am impressed about the work of the IC program, great job :)

I got some question, maybe someone would like to answer them.

1. I trying to get an icon on a url shortcut, I can get the shortcut created on desktop, when I install, but i don´t know how get the icon from the programs exe file to it.

2. How can i get the programs exe icon on uninstall in "program and Features"?

I hope someone can answer. Thx.

get freeware program called get icons v2.5 it will allow you to extract icons from any program or dll. or you can google images for specific game, alot of times you'll find custom png ( to use for icon ) the online convert png to ico
will also create an ico file for you as well, but get icons is much quicker.

looking for more info on icons, use search topic at top of thread, then input icons, will result in many posts already asking the same questions.

Ok, thanks for the answer. But it was not the question, I know how to get a icon file. My question was how to get the programs exe icon on desktop shortcut url when installing the program. I can do it with the inno setup, but I wonder if I can do it with the IC program.

hi everyone . how to compile setup and get workng with ultra arc diskspan? when i try install it give me error ISDone dll unarc.dll thanks

Hey there Razor.
Since I last used your software (dunno when that was, back when the UI was black...)
Anyway, it has changed a lot for me. Now using 3.0.2.0, and I donnot understan how to use the designer. How to add buttons, how to change button behavior, Button text, etc.
Do all pages share the same background (like main Install page 1)?
Please, I usually figure these thing out for myself, but I'm at a loss... I really need some help

Nevermind, I say I wanted your old Advanced Setup Creator... much better IMHO. Thanx anyway for all you hard work.

Help me i'm a newbie and complete noob
 

Hi :) everyone I'm a complete newbie here and I just don't understand how this forum works because I'm a noob kindly anyone plz refer me a complete pdf or video tutorial how to use latest UltraArc to compress a game as .bin and then how to create a Setup.exe which extracts the .bin file? i have no knowledge of Libraries, Scripts and I don't know to use Inno. I also don't know how to hook up inno with ultraarc or customize .ini files.

i just compressed Age of Empires II HD with all DLC's from 5.20 GB to 2 GB using UltraARC 2900 R7 with these FreeArc options: precomp_p.zt+msc+srep+lzma2+mask
and the output had a compressed file of 2 GB which is named as Data.bin and a Records.ini file.

Now how can i use Installer Creator v3.1 to make Setup.exe which extracts Data.bin and after all this i need to make an ISO image of this Repack.
