I'm not going to explain all the steps.

basically:

change settings by editing Compiler.ini.
you can be replaced images, music file info.txt.

for unpacking:

setup your unpacking tools (replace/add) and edit ToolList.iss , ToolList_Init.iss as well.
there's a section in compiler.ini for bin files which you can change output, each percentages, password etc.
Create a MD5 file for your new bin files and replace the existing file from it.

Use compiler.exe to create a new Installer and keep your bin files (that created from FreeArc) with Setup.exe (same folder).

@Kitsune,

I don't want to add any compression tool. why?

i gave you a compressor, it's just a example. you don't always want to use it. you're free to use your own compressor with it. so what do you want to do?

just consider an example. if I want to repack a game using XTool:zlib + Srep + Lolz + Diskspan,

Compression:-

Arc.ini
Code:
[External compressor:xprecomp]
header    = 0
packcmd   = xtool.exe e:precomp:t100p,c32mb:zlib - - <stdin> <stdout>

[External compressor:lolz]
header = 0
packcmd = lolz_x64.exe {options} $$arcdatafile$$.tmp $$arcpackedfile$$.tmp

[External compressor:srep]
header = 0
packcmd   = srep.exe {options} -m3f -l512 -v2 -a1 $$arcdatafile$$.tmp $$arcpackedfile$$.tmp
Compressor.bat
Code:
arc.exe a -ep1 -r -ed -s; -w.\temp -mxprecomp+srep+lolz:mtt0:tt1:mt2:d128:mc8:ldmf0+diskspan:200mb   Packed\Hello-1.bf  "F:\test1\*"

Compressor folder:



Compressor folder:




Decompression:-


Arc.ini
Code:
[External compressor:xprecomp]
header    = 0
unpackcmd = xtool.exe d:precomp:t90p:cm0 - - <stdin> <stdout>

[External compressor:srep]
header = 0
unpackcmd = srep {options} -d - - <stdin> <stdout>
Files>Unpack folder



DiskSpanRec>records.ini



ToolsList.iss



ToolsList_Init.iss




see, what I finally got.





* Note:
- you don't need to place the Records.ini file next to Setup.exe.
- follow the steps for the DiskSpan I mentioned in ReadMe.txt.

also an UA compatibility update would be great too..
I guess I won't add UltraArc. DiskSpan is enough.

Remove srep method in arc.ini in the installer, if your are using cls srep and also check cls.ini settings finally check once again u added all tools to Installer which unpack to tmp just go and check temp folder
