[Prettyboy099]

I don't know what u did.... but for me shortcut is created fine...
Here, look at my Executable setting....
Untitled-2.png

Edit:- mausschieber told me that it's due to installdir being 'GodOfWar' not 'God of War'.... So I set 'ApplicationFolder=GodOfWar'....
Try this setup and let me know if it works....

PS: Needs modified Setup.ini with this setup

[CMDCommands]
cd /D "{app}"
"{app}\WemTool.exe" -d
del /S /F "{app}\WemTool.exe"

Include WemTool in game folder and compress

[Prettyboy099]

Hi everyone, I added a Setup for Wem tool support.... Hope it helps...
Read instruction from the first post....

One might find this useful if you deleted other languages and try to change language in game options.

When changing language ingame, one has to cycle through all previous languages to set the language one wants. The order is: English -> French -> Spanish -> German -> etc
When you only have eg. Eng and Ger installed you still have to cycle over FR and ES which makes the game crash when FR or ES audiofiles are not present.

God of War\exec\languages\LANGS_GOWA08000.txt contains the selectable languages. You delete the lines you don't have audiofiles for to remove them from being available ingame, preventing the game from attempting to load them and crashing. Don't change the numbers, only delete lines.

All done with day 1 updates as well.

Standard Install in around 16 minutes or so

Repcak installs in around 7 minutes 49 seconds.
