Info on Half-Life and Possible Program soon...


Recommended Posts

For Half-Life, if anyone wants to get that installed properly...

Use the sleep.exe, which I mentioned earlier, and if you are using a CD, then make sure you time how long it takes on the CD, not the HD.

To help with the .iss file, set this in the sierra.inf

; StrippedDemo indicates whether the product is a stripped down demo. If it is, the

; installation program will skip installation of Sierra Utilities, electronic registration,

; installation of DirectX, and the sound tests. The default is 0, indicating false.

StrippedDemo=1

This will remove the electronic registration at the end, and create a fully unattended install of it.

I am trying to make a program for batch editing that is fully customizible via setup.ini. Here is a picture of the preview. I don't know any programming knowledge via Visual Basic or C++, and if someone is willing to help with the coding, please contact me on the forums. thx!

Looks very nice Budster!

MSFN has actually be in the process of brainstorming of a all in one tool for the entire Unattened process.

Combining our thoughts would probably work out nicely!

Doggie is heading up the coding, so he will chime in soon

but anywho, nice work thus far!

we should do some group chat and get this thing off the ground.
