Getting this error when I launch from desktop shortcut.


And expansions are not recongnized.

Thanks for the conversion!

I'm using the italian version, have the game correctly installed, but when I launch the executable I can only choose "Install".

Perhaps there's some reg information missing?

Regarding the compression, I had to choose a stronger compress method than -m4 -s128m for the file data3.cab, as I had a few megabytes overflow.

There is config file among AppData files on C: that stores all data files (mods/addons)

Can anyone add that file in during the installation?

[Smurf Stomper]

add this:

[Files]
Source: .\plugins.txt; DestDir: {localappdata}\FalloutNV\; Flags: ignoreversion;

Also need this:

[Registry]
Root: HKLM; Subkey: SOFTWARE\Bethesda Softworks\; Flags: uninsdeletekeyifempty
Root: HKLM; Subkey: SOFTWARE\Bethesda Softworks\FalloutNV; Flags: uninsdeletekey
Root: HKLM; Subkey: SOFTWARE\Bethesda Softworks\FalloutNV; ValueName: Installed Path; ValueType: string; ValueData: {app}\; Flags: uninsdeletekey

w/o the correct reg entry you'll get a world of errors trying to run this, as Zyo found out.

Someone remake the installer?

[pakrat2k2]

not hard to do yourself, just take the links smurf stomper posted, add it to iss file & \files folder then recompile it. It will make a new exe file that you can then use with the instructions from post 1

[zyo]

what iss should I use as a base?

[senseman]

i need to test italian version, i'll write a message about it later

you just need to edit the instalscript.iss add the file ( plugins.txt ) to source files, then add / correct the registry section all noted by Smurf Stomper. Compiled the script ( which will end up with new setup.exe, replace it in the dvd conversion file you d/l from post #1 )

Test the install/uninstall to make sure everythings correct.

[zyo]

doesnt work says installer could not find the necessary files and setup.exe is about 7MB bigger than the old one. Probably need senseman to fix that

@zyo

use new Attached Files...maybe work... Attachment updated..forgot to add GDFBinary=

@buddhabar

[zyo]

[buddhabar]

Same error as before here, I can only choose "Install", I've tried also on a clean virtual machine (WinXP).
