Copying

[XcOM]

Hi,

I have searched, and have found no results that are relevent,

I have made my Unattended install DVD, and added all the applications, now then, i am in the process of creating a DVD with my games on it,

I know this is long winded but, i wish to use RUNONCE to copy the install files to my system drive, then run WPI, i know it can be done using a BAT file, but i don't want to, it looks untidy, its a waste of space, and in my eyesm i HATE BAT/CMD files with a passion.

Is there a way to copy say:

REG ADD %KEY%\020 /VE /D "Copying Game Files" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\020 /V 1 /D "xcopy %CDROM%\Games %systemdrive%\Games /e" /f

Would this work? The %CDROM% value is set to the CDROM drive containing the game install files needed, Unless someone knows a way to do this without copying the files, I am going to get the system to delete the files afterwards.

Thanks in advance.

Huh?

Why not just place it in

$OEM$\$1\Games

This will copy all the contents to

\Games

too big, DVD is already 3.5GB,

and my games total 3GB, no Dual Layer DVD's, so i want to split it.

REG ADD %KEY%\020 /VE /D "Copying Game Files" /f

REG ADD %KEY%\020 /V 1 /D "xcopy %CDROM%\Games %systemdrive%\Games /e" /f

Would this work?

That is BAT /CMD file syntax

Yes, it will copy.

Open a command window and type xcopy /? to see more switches other than /e.

Well, and you hate BATs/CMDs?!

I used to love BAT and CMD files, i know this is a BAT/CMD file i am writing atm, but this is to set the RunoneEX

I like my installs to look nice and run without using too much system resorces, that as BAT files look ugly, and get one switch or command wrong, and the entire process is out of the window then.

Thanks for the help.
