Ah sick yeah checking out v7.3.3 right now, things seem a lot more streamlined than the last time I checked out a newer revision, think I'll migrate over, the eye-boggling amount of new features/QoL improvements is too good to pass up on, plus being able to aggressively compress all the required compressors into a separate archive is super convenient, very confident this'll save at least a couple GB in space once I've rebuilt all my setup executables that were built using v7.2.0 .

I've been looking at my old source codes here and apparently the current ASIS (v7.3.3) works with the COMPRESSOR_ GUI included in ASIS v7.2.2 (also including the compressor files).

I attached the files referring to the old compressors that worked with the COMPRESSOR_GUI (They must be very outdated).
With this GUI compressor you create the Setup.dll file that can be used with current ASIS (I think).
It must be extracted to the ASIS folder.
P.S: Add the 64BitOnly=0 key in the [Settings] section of the ASIS Settings.ini file so that you can use 32-bit compressors.
To work on 32-bit systems, it is also necessary to remove the lines indicated below from the [Setup] section of the Script.iss of the ASIS v7.3.3 :

ArchitecturesInstallIn64BitMode=x64
ArchitecturesAllowed=x64

EDIT: From what you can see it should also work with DislSpan GUI 1.0.0.5, just copy the COMPRESSOR.ini file from the "DiskSpan_GUI\Resources" folder to the COMPRESSOR\Resources folder of DiskSpan GUI 1.0.0.5 and then delete the DiskSpan GUI folder and rename the "COMPRESSOR" folder (DiskSpan GUI 1.0.0.5) to "DiskSpan_GUI" and move the folder into the ASIS folder.

EDIT: I attached a new file.
Extract the COMPRESSOR (DSG) folder to the ASIS 7.3.3 folder.
- Added a combobox in the COMPRESSOR_GUI interface to select the method used to compress Setup DLL.

Oh wow this is better than any gift I could possibly receive, thank you so much mate for going to the effort of doing this, this is honestly a lovely surprise to see after a rather long 14hr shift!

Thank you also for the config batch file, I think you had given me some advice on how to do the same a while back but I never managed to get it working.

Thanks again mate, with this I'll definitely be fully migrating to v7.3.3
