Question about definition file

the IsSigned flag is in the Game Explorer registry values

and by changing that i didn't mean to bypass the signing process but merely to make the content rating that i added to the GDF I made appear in Game Explorer

I do this because I repack some of my very old games like MOH: Pacific Assault and Max Payne, Mafia and so on and some of these games are released long before the CA system became known

i know i can't sign any package but i can make content rating appear by changing that in the registry manually

again question is: is there a way to change this value automatically?

again thanks for you patience Joe

if repacking / doing conversions for the older games, just add the changed registry value ( for the content rating ) into your inno script under the reg section ). Then when you install from the conversion that value will be already set to what you entered previously.

Some of the games you mentioned may not have been converted using an inno script but by taking one of the ones posted here that uses inno, and a bit of time changing the background images, wizard images, icon registry settings, application exes etc, write your own inno conversion file, and it will have that value preset.

good luck!! its time consuming, and lots of installing from original then backing up reg settings etc, uninstall & test out conversion process. ( easier to do with 2 pcs readily available )

Ahhh, you want to change the registry programmatically? You can use Windows' built-in reg command for that.
