Is there a way to edit the iss or add something in it that allows you to install several games without having to uninstall the last game you just installed? please help, this is a particular problem of mine i have been having..

YES, if the games have different names.
Example: Syberia and Syberia II are different.
Check the Setup.ini file if this key is being used?

[InstallOptions]
ProductCode=

If the same GUID is used in 2 games with different names it will be interpreted as the same game.
Remove this line or place "//" or ";" at the beginning of the line in both "Setup.ini" and recompile.
Using the ProductCode= key is optional for when you need to create 2 installers with the same game name, but want to install both in different locations on the HDD.

Let me know if that was it.
If not, send me the Setup.ini for the 2 games for me to analyze.

To use with CIU it is recommended to use "UltraArc.exe" or "DiskSpan.bat" from the "UltraARC 2900 R7 FULL" folder contained in "_Tools.7z" file of the first post.
But if you use another extension, CIU will work as long as the method used for compression is supported by CIU and is not a DiskSpan R3 file (different from .001, .002, etc.).
It will only be necessary to inform the file correctly in Records.ini file.
You can include compressors external to the CIU using an external folder and an external Arc.ini with all the configurations of the methods that are used.
