b0r3d Posted September 10, 2003 Posted September 10, 2003 Could someone please explain to me the process involved with raring files, and extracting them silently on install?
Nephilim Posted September 10, 2003 Posted September 10, 2003 Simple create a SFX (.exe - File) and use the -s switch. eg rarfile.exe -sThat's all.
b0r3d Posted September 10, 2003 Author Posted September 10, 2003 I was fiddling with the SFX file just a little while ago. Compressing all my hotfixes at high compression saved < 1mb >Does that requre Winrar to be installed before i run it?
remyblade Posted September 10, 2003 Posted September 10, 2003 No you don't need it installed. It's selfextracting. p.s. you can use /S to install silently.RemyBlade
Thanatos Posted September 10, 2003 Posted September 10, 2003 Its good for userprofile stuff too, where you have different usernames, because you can extract the files to %userprofile% and then the folders relative to that

Compressing all my hotfixes at high compression saved < 1mb >Does that requre Winrar to be installed before i run it?Thasts due to the fact that hotfixes are already highly compressed data.I would reccomend trying the SFX methoud with raw files and data, it gets much better results. |Drew|
