RAGE - (3xDVD9 to 3x or 5xDVD5) *Inno Setup*

[permenition]

Compiled without error, but setup crashes the moment it starts (tried with and without the update, result is the same). Red Faction Armageddon does the same but there I get to the moment files should start copying and then setup crashes.

EDIT: Tried to run setup on another computer where Rage was never installed, the setup there runs.

it autostarts the install after completing the compile. just exit that install sequence. Uninstall from your dvd9 version, then reinstall from dvd5 conversion.

[permenition]

No no, it doesn't start automatically i started it manually. I've uninstalled the game, checked the registry for strings there is no sign of it but it seems to be somewhere. I have this problem with those 2 games and with peterf's conversion of Call of Juarez The Cartel; after autorun starts there are options: play uninstall etc, and the game is clearly uninstalled and no registry strings. (weird) Something is wrong with my system and I can't figure out what, and that seems to be only with inno installations for some reason :S Any help will be appreciated.
p.s. I cleaned the registry with some registry cleaners but nothing changed.

[pakrat2k2]

make sure that your TEMP folder is cleaned out. AND use the tool from this thread to see if anything still lurking behind.

Done, no traces, TEMP cleaned, nothing is changed :S

did you read post #7 ?

also try ansi version of inno instead of unicode version. with unicode version it compiled fine but crashes
whenever you try to run the setup.

[permenition]

Yes I've read post #7. I've compiled it with ansi, I will try with unicode now but as I remember there was error with it on one section (something like TD something), I'll try and edit post when done.

EDIT: With unicode version there is TGUID error if I remove that section there is another one and there goes in a loop. So my question is can I just pack the content of installed folder into my own installation with some other simple installation maker or there needs to be some registry strings added (or I don't mind even packing it into selfextract rar archives) Question is for both Rage and Red Faction Armageddon. I appreciate all your help, but I'm afraid only solution is to reformat my system, and I wont do that now, too much a hassle at a moment. Thank you very much again.

Sorry for this stupid question but how to run it???
thanks

[pakrat2k2]

you need to install inno on your pc.. to do the conversion

[dcnino]

Thanks pakrat2k2 it's working fine on my win7 x64

Hi pakrat2k2
the setup works fine in 5 X DVD5
but is it possible in 4 X DVD5
I means could you please show me the steps.....

thank you

[pakrat2k2]

its a 2xdvd9 original game lucky to get it down to 4xdvd5.

[shag2000]

got an error on the line:
function SHGetFolderPath(hwndOwner,nFolder,hToken: Integer; dwFlags: DWord; pszPath: PChar): Cardinal;

[pakrat2k2]

did you do step #4 correctly ? change line 1 in the script to where you installed the game ? Must have \" to be correct.
and using ansi version of inno not unicode version.

[shag2000]

yea, the problem was the unicode version and also probably an earlier version of inno setup.
thanks for the help
