This method belongs to a very old xtool version which is not included in DSG.

Just use xtool 2020 with zlib codec instead.

Yes.

You can just use "Unlimited" tab outside of developer mode.

why next button not active

[KaktoR]

Because you have no next tab (no tab after Game 1)

thanks worked. how i can make created .bin files optional ? like fitgirl

if i delete bin files, setup.exe still search file and give error

but, fitgirl repacks, if bin file not in the folder, setup.exe skips this file

[kj911]

Has anyone encountered such an installer? (Is their compression technique beatable? ex: FitGirl could do it?)



Is it possible to find such an installation package?? (Yes, bitWrapper(tm) compressed.)

Hi.

I have a question about Diskspan GUI / Inno Setup.
I'm actually getting on quite well with the software so far.

Now I have a new situation:
I want to pack a game in one archive and a mod for this game in a second archive.

In the finished Inno Setup installer there should be a checkbox.

If the checkbox is enabled the installer should extract archive 1 and then archive 2.
If the checkbox is disabled the installer should only extract archive 1.

Is this even possible? Or another way to reach the same goal?

Maybe I'm thinking too complicated?

[KaktoR]

Any installer which allows components and is compatible with DSG is suitable for this

[Doomman2008]

Good to hear so far..

Can you give me an example how i can do that?

I use Diskspan GUI mainly for compressing.

I use the script from "Light Installer" as template but i do changes for every game i compress manually in Inno Setup editor.

[KaktoR]

If you use LIS try changing that

[Components]
Name: comp1; Description: Game 1; Types: full; ExtraDiskSpaceRequired: 10000000000
Name: comp2; Description: Game 2; Types: full; ExtraDiskSpaceRequired: 20000000000

[Doomman2008]

I already saw that lines.

But how could i define what data is "comp1" for example.
I don't understand this.
