yes, it’s because of the dependencies. It’s the /q parameter

Awesome, thank you. I’ve often looked for a good installer and never found one. Your script took about 5 minutes to figure out and make work. Everything installed onto a clean XP machine I’m using for testing and worked great. One weird thing, when it was done with the completion bar at 100% it took another several minutes before it was actually done. I’m assuming that’s because it was installing all the dependancies. It sure would be nice to see something telling you. Do you know if there’s a setting in Inno that can be set to help with that?

Awesome stuff. I already use Inno for work related projects, so I was able to get this up and working for my game within 10 minutes.

Perfect, works great for my game thank you. I had a hard time finding a good tutorial to do this…
I noted a few things though, I had 3 errors:
-SetupIconFile = “D:\Projects\Vizati\Vizati\vizati.ico”
-UninstallIconFile = “D:\Projects\Vizati\Vizati\vizati.ico”
those two paths need to be changed and
-Syntax error:
if (hasDotNet3sp and (whichDotNet3sp > 0)) or not hasDotNet3 then

I changed the > by > and it worked.
Thank you
