Hi,
I have been busy lately so I've just got round to finishing off these two programs.
1). Install Creator
This is an easy to use GUI driven install creator for your games, basically you load in your game directory, tweak the settings for individual files and then customise the actual installer look. DB users
are entitled to a free registration code because I love you all
Features:
Small exe (112Kb overhead!)
Strong encryption keeping your routine secure
Mix & Match screen building - You can miss out wizard screens as well as have unlimited information and licence screens
File <> Licence dependibility, if a user does not agree with a licence they don't get the file
Start menu and Desktop shortcut support
Internet downloading for ensuring your product is up to date
Execution during installation for registering dll's, ocx's etc
File <> Option dependibiliy, install a file only if the user wants it
File <> OS dependibility, install a file on a specified version of windows
System variables, direct access to the users special directories e.g. windows, program files etc
Get default installation directory from registry, file or
system variable
Dependency checks can be performed on registry and/or file to ensure you don't install on a uncompatible computer
Registry writing so that your application is ready to go once installed
Powerful yet safe uninstaller with the ability to remove registry entries
2). Internet File Updater
This is a tiny application to help you give your users a trouble free path to upgrading. It uses a local and an internet based file to check the version numbers of any files you specify. If the internet file holds updated version numbers then the program automatically updates your files so that the user has the newest version.
Low overhead (40Kb!)
Encrypted instructions keeping your update locations secure
Fast, optimized code with generic API calls
Clear readout of operations performed
