Alright, I have a simple question:

Is it possible to make a custom installer using ONLY the game disc/s - IE: making an installer without installing the game first?

It would help for annoying DRM and poor internet connection.

Also, When using the custom installer - is there an easier way to align your buttons?
At the moment I am editing the setup.ini, running setup to see where the buttons are, and repeating this process until I eventually get them right.
Is there some way i can make it easier?

Thanks for your help.

I can respond for the align of the buttons. this is an small trick that I use.

open your image with photshop (ie. autorun.png)
right click over the ruler and choose pixels.
use the guide lines to obtain the coordinates were you want the buttons appears. Its not 100% accurate sometimes you have to rest 4 or 5 pixels.
(ie.: if on photoshop show that your button will appears at left=80 and top=160 on setup.ini you must put left=80 top=155) I hope this help you.
