Installer Creator Tutorial (Razor12911's IC)

[Inge]

This seems to be Bug in Version 2.3.2 when you use Extern Compression. I've tried my Dawn of War II Collection with 2.3.2 and got the same bug. Made with v2.3.1 again the bug was gone. I have not try out v. 2.3.3 till now. With Internal Compression you will have no Problems, but the Game (Thief 4) won't fit on 4 DVD 5.

---------EDIT----------
It's not a bug, you have to put your Icon.ico on all DVDs.

1 - Media External is the part where you add in external archives created using compression softwares like FreeArc, 7zip, WinRAR etc, To add in the files there, you can use in.
like this :
Method : The Archive format used, (arc,7z,rar)
Source : Name of the Compressed Archive (setup.bin. setup.cab..)
Example syntax = {src}\Setup-1.bin | The src represents the source where the installer exe file resides and the archives must be there also.
Output : The out put folder, It's normally {app}\ If you want to extract the archive inside a specific game folder then use {app}\foldername\
And the res, Just make sure you select the precomp versions right, and for compression you can use this tool here, it's based on arc and the best with a gui to set commands and options : Here

2. Windows Operating System Version Numbers.

Windows 8.1	6.3
Windows 8	        6.2
Windows 7	        6.1
Windows Vista	6.0
Windows XP 64	5.2
Windows XP	5.1
Windows 2000	5.0

3. About the reg files, you might have to check them at Here in case if you don't know it, or else you can check on the windows registry manually and export the required keys to a reg files and add the values accordingly to the installer.

May be possible, Try putting the bat file into a SFX using winrar, 7z or your preferred archive method and try launching it during the installation process.
Like Hide it in the Redist or components Sessions or try around were you can put it and give that a run.
Or you could also plan to execute the exe file which will then run the .bat file ( I assume, you already know how to do that. )

Needs no Tutorial. Just Install all Games in one Folder. Then, it's the best you Compress the Games External. For help you can Edit Converter.ini and Data.ini from this or this Collections.

Then go to Resources\Components and set Game Names and Game Sizes the rest is normal settings for external Compression.

May be due to the name problems, might need to add as unpack.exe in name also. and make sure that it is getting launched after the installation's or simple try to put that in executables or in were you add in the redist files.
