Zxian Posted June 22, 2005 Share Posted June 22, 2005 Considering that there are several ways of installing applications on a UACD, you need to figure out one of the basic ways (i.e. RunOnceEx - not XPlode/WPI) and stick with it.I started with the batch files, since it's a good place to learn about the basics of setting up the file structure on a UACD. When I was comfortable with that, I moved onto RunOnceEx since I don't care about really fancy looks and it's relatively simple to setup. There's even a RunOnceEx maker that makes things a lot easier. What you end up with in the end is a sleek looking box that shows you what's been installed and what's to come.Read the guide carefully. There's no quick UACD creator program out there... it takes a bit of practice. All the information you need there is available - you just need to read it all (no skimming). The RunOnceEx page even has a good example on how to setup the .cmd file. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
