>>Was that the jpg and png thing? I don't know if that was a bug or a feature, and haven't tested yet, but in previous releases you could only use JPG images for Backgrounds, not PNG ones.

i thought only PNG can be added(previous releases), in this release, you can add multiple PNGs for installer, Installer.bmp, Installer#_*.png(#- counter, *- short name for language)(all Installer*.png should have same dimensions since .bmp is same)

>>You mean internal INNO compression?
vulture protective compression for images(Setup folder) etc.

>> Have you added ztool too?
what we discussed earlier will be implemented, thinking about making something like ultraarc (started writing too, will release a cli tomorrow or on Sunday)

Ahh sorry, i missunderstood you previously. I thought you mean background pictures (in Background folder).

I have wrote that a while back in bug list on other place.

Can't get the EditIni feature to work...

The ini I need edited is in a sub-folder in the game's installation (Binaries\Win32\), the ini file name is steam_api.ini

The section is [Settings], the key is Language, the available languages are:
English (EnglishUS)
German
French
Italian
Spanish (SpanishES)
Japanese
Korean
Russian

What I tried:

Code:

EditIni1={src}\Binaries\Win32\steam_api.ini;Section:Settings;Key:Language;Value:english;Lang:EnglishUS
EditIni2={src}\Binaries\Win32\steam_api.ini;Section:Settings;Key:Language;Value:german;Lang:German
EditIni3={src}\Binaries\Win32\steam_api.ini;Section:Settings;Key:Language;Value:french;Lang:French
EditIni4={src}\Binaries\Win32\steam_api.ini;Section:Settings;Key:Language;Value:italian;Lang:Italian
EditIni5={src}\Binaries\Win32\steam_api.ini;Section:Settings;Key:Language;Value:spanish;Lang:SpanishES
EditIni6={src}\Binaries\Win32\steam_api.ini;Section:Settings;Key:Language;Value:japanese;Lang:Japanese
EditIni7={src}\Binaries\Win32\steam_api.ini;Section:Settings;Key:Language;Value:korean;Lang:Korean
EditIni8={src}\Binaries\Win32\steam_api.ini;Section:Settings;Key:Language;Value:russian;Lang:Russian

Also tried the same with {app} instead of {src}

But nothing happens, the value in the ini file remains Language=english, no matter what.

Here's how the ini looks in the relevant section:

Code:

[Settings]

###
### 
### Enter your name here
### 
### Names with diacritic or cyrillic characters are supported but no garantee to work
###

UserName=MYNAME

###
### Select your language here if available
###

Language=english

Any help?

Thanks.

Are you changing the language from autorun?

Of course, I tested on German & Italian languages with same result, the ini isn't being changed, it stays with the default English value, even though I selected the correct language on autorun and performed the entire setup in selected language.

vollachr · #14 25-03-2018, 06:28

OK, finally figured the EditIni problem out...

It seems there should be an ending semicolon at the end of each line and it should be with {app}, like this:

Code:

EditIni1={app}\Binaries\Win32\steam_api.ini;Section:Settings;Key:Language;Value:english;Lang:EnglishUS;
EditIni2={app}\Binaries\Win32\steam_api.ini;Section:Settings;Key:Language;Value:german;Lang:German;
EditIni3={app}\Binaries\Win32\steam_api.ini;Section:Settings;Key:Language;Value:french;Lang:French;
EditIni4={app}\Binaries\Win32\steam_api.ini;Section:Settings;Key:Language;Value:italian;Lang:Italian;
EditIni5={app}\Binaries\Win32\steam_api.ini;Section:Settings;Key:Language;Value:spanish;Lang:SpanishES;
EditIni6={app}\Binaries\Win32\steam_api.ini;Section:Settings;Key:Language;Value:japanese;Lang:Japanese;
EditIni7={app}\Binaries\Win32\steam_api.ini;Section:Settings;Key:Language;Value:korean;Lang:Korean;
EditIni8={app}\Binaries\Win32\steam_api.ini;Section:Settings;Key:Language;Value:russian;Lang:Russian;

That finally worked, at least for the German language, will now test other languages. (Update: Worked for all languages)

It just doesn't work without that last semicolon, my guess is it needs it to "close" the Lang parameter in the line, but I'm no programmer.
