Title: Odamex In EXE format?
Post by: Marcus Koller on January 21, 2007, 11:10:04

I can make it an installation file, if anyone is up for it. Some people may hate zips so they want shortcuts and all the other stuff too.

We have a NSIS script in SVN, but it isn't going to be used until 1.0.

Ah, okay I see. I use Inno Setup which makes setup files a breeze. It may be similiar to the one you mentioned but I am not sure. Anyway, hope to see one soon. I did make one now out of the current version we have.

This is a self-extracting archive for the alpha version just pick a directory, it does the job just fine.

Slayer: That is just an sfx archive, not an actual installer.

Marcus: If you'd like to, you could have a look at the current installer package, anarkavre currently maintains it, but it hasn't been touched in a while, so I'm not sure if it still works or not.

I also use Innosetup myself btw.
