Hi,

I have built my personnal WinXP with some programs (using CABS from this forum :-)).

A friend take it (with it's own cd key, of course !) and doesn't be happy by my choice of programs installed. For example i use GAIM on my 3 computer, so i have added it, but he dosn't use any IM, so he need to uninstall it after windows installation :-s

I have created a little program that pop up at the begin of custom program installation.

You can choose which program you want to install, and which you wont.

i join a screenshot of the current popup design (in french, sorry) and the .ini configuration file :

I'm currently in testing process (check how to integrate it easily in the ISO builind)

Someone is interested by this little tool ? Do you think it is usefull ?

A good idea - I like it.

I'd be interested, and some ideas if possible. (Simular to wpi)

Set defaults

Set a timer

Thanks

Timer added (60 seconds)

defaults set by .ini file

langu.ini to use in other language than french

I will test in my xp install this week-end and hope to release it next monday

excellent, thanks gramiche

maybe others will have an idea too...

To make it easier to use, you could see if nuhi would be interested in integrating it to nlite.

so when you choose to add a hotfix, extra options could be added to nlite;

to make apps default

to select the timer length

and on integrating hotfixs so as not to get confused between updates and apps, tags could be set by developers.

that’s my two cents, good luck with your project

It could be nice !

Nuhi ?

may I suggest you PM nuhi and direct him to this thread

I like what you're doing here

Awesome idea

I would like to see more addons as well.

Integrating addons with nLite is a great feature but in my opinion it's a little bit underestimated.

Not enough addons are created

The advanced users should participate more...

gramiche, It would be great to just integrate your tool with other applications, not inside nlite package, and then automatically generate appropriate config depending on integrated programs.

To simplify: run nlite, go to application integration page, insert your tool, insert apps...nlite generates all what is needed and recognizes custom installer thingy.

Hypothetical scenario aka don't do this at home.

Actualy, to use my addon :

I add all addons i want to install with the application integration screen (but i rip the [AddProgram] section of the .ini contained in the .cab)

I add my launcher with the same way (launcher is packed into a .cab)

launcher.ini is set with all command ripped in all previous [AddProgram] section

Do you think NLite can do the rip step and build the launcher.ini ?

Unless I'm doing something wrong - I can't get it to work at all.
