What do you mean, port over the extraction to Inno Setup?

Yes I understand the extraction of Setup.DLL and everything like that, needing to have the right decompressors ect. I just don't like get how to necessarily port those functions into Inno.

I'm testing with a archive I created with precomp+srep+lzma (there are going to be mutiple types depending on filetype). It decompresses perfectly within diskspangui I just don't know how to move that function over to Inno setup to work with my setup file

Sorry if I sound kinda dumb about this I am trying my hand at making a little bit more intensive repacks, I've made simple ones with inno itself before doing the compression and everything but never really messed with it

Do you want to learn how to extract an archive created by DSG using Inno Setup? If so, follow these steps:

1. Download DSG: When you download DSG, you'll find a folder named "_ISDone Script Example (DiskSpan_GUI)."

2. Example Implementation: Inside this folder, you'll discover an example of how to implement the necessary functions for extracting archives created by DSG.

3. Additional Examples: For more examples, explore the 'Light Installer Script' thread.

EDIT: Yes that is what I am looking to achieve. I want to compress with DSG and to decompress with inno. I'm trying my hand at making more intensive repacks a la FitGirl

I've read through these and can't lie that I am a bit confused as to which to look at seeing as there are two isdone scripts, I can't really tell what is going on, is the one inside of Script Example the one I want to look at or the one at the top of the _ISDone_ dir?

Again sorry for stupid questions I'm completely lost would not be asking if I didn't have to

The examples within the "Script Example (DSG_Module)" subfolder are examples using an external module (DSG_Module.iss) that is easier for you to adapt in any Inno Setup script that uses IsDone.dll.
The ISDone_Example.iss example in the main folder is more complex and more difficult to adapt to another script (because it contains all the code in the same script).
Both examples have the same purpose, but the main folder example also has hash checking that is not included in the example with DSG_Module.iss.

INFO:
I am sharing an update to the examples using DSG_Module.iss as an attachment.
Fixed a bug in the previous version where uninstallation did not remove files from the installation folder.
