request: integrate setup with player

[Gilbert]

I think it's a bit fuzzy about that, maybe it's due to versions (maybe it's been fixed by a window$ update) or, just some not-so-obvious settings in the OS. Anyway, using winsetup.exe as a launcher is a much polished and safer way, so there is no excuse not to include it with your game.

Hmm... I'll just need to get on with c++... how do you execute files in c++ anyway?

[Gurok]

Well, C++ being a superset of C, I'd assume you'd include unistd.h and just call execvp().

[Pumaman]

Really?

I just made a batch file, three lines:

@echo off
cd
pause

And it returned the current directory. I'm using Windows XP SP2.

Yeah, I'm not entirely sure when it does and doesn't happen. It may well have been fixed in the latest Windows XP, but there are definitely some versions of 2000 and XP where it doesn't work.
