Here's my question. Let's say I want to add some optional mods to my installation. How to add them to the installation and how to make backups of possible overwrited files? I'm guessing this belongs to the [Components] section but I don't have much time at the moment to experiment by myself, hence my question here

According yo yener's script (and assuming every exe has same system) the information you're looking to change was actually created WHEN bin files were created by setup.

So, to simplify the explanation, for example;

If you have 3 bin and setup.exe which were created bt script, the installation will check these 3 bin files during installation. If you put 2 bin files instead of 3, setup will ask 'Insert disk1', if you put 4 or more instead of 3, setup will continue to install without asking it.

When some setups are saying only 'insert next disk' some of them are demanding correct bin files and disk numbers. I suggest to re-create or convert your game instead of editing (if it's easy to do)

I made a 3xDVD5 conversion. Everityhing is ok except that the setup ask for disk1 instead of disk2 and disk3, but this is not a major problem.

Thx. Have a nice day

your problem is in setup.ini you have to modify it so the setup ask you for disk 2 so if you have 3 data files on first disk make the forth like this

FreeArcFile1={src}\Data4.bin;DestDir:{app};Disk:2

so Data4.bin is on disk 2 notice Disk number in the last of the line

that's all have fun
