Has anyone used this installer? I seen to have a glitch. I can create a desktop icon and when used, applies saves in the correct directory. If I select to run the game from the Start/Programs/Game, the saves go to some "Common Files" directory and the saves from running the desktop game will no longer be accessible.
Did you set the "WorkingDir" parameter in the "Icons" section?
For example:
[Icons]
Name: "{group}\startmenuedir"; Filename: "{app}\appfilename"; WorkingDir: "{app}"
Name: "{userdesktop}\appname"; Filename: "{app}\appfilename"; WorkingDir: "{app}"; Tasks: desktopicon
Thanks smiley, that was it. I had it on the userdesktop line but not on the one above. Argh, don't know how I missed that. I got it all working now except for the desktop icon. It will never display the .ico file. I get a generic windows icon. If I don't try to define one, I get the AGS icon.
Put the icon inside the "compiled" folder, so it will be included in the installation.
Define the icon by putting this:
IconFilename: "{app}\NAMEOFTHEICON.ico"
in the definition of the desktopicon.
But if you already did this, try to test if your windows can display that icon:
Create a shortcut and change its icon to yours.
The icon is in the compiled folder.Ã, I have the IconFilename defined and I tried the test for creating the shortcut, and the shortcut worked.Ã, :(Ã, Do you have any other ideas?
Name: {group}\Example; Filename: {app}\Example.exe; WorkingDir: {app}
Name: {group}\{cm:UninstallProgram,Example}; Filename: {uninstallexe}; WorkingDir: {app}
Name: {userdesktop}\Example; Filename: {app}\Example.exe; Tasks: desktopicon; WorkingDir: {app}; IconFilename: {app}\Example.ico
