I need a FREE easy to use installer
#1

Sorry to be so needy. I just realized that I should figure out how to use an installer for my campaigns. Are they easy to use/learn? Which one is the best and free?

What are you asking for ??? If your using IL-2 for your campaigns
why not put them in the online slot or in the singles??

I've downloaded a number of campaigns and some of them you just click on one file and it puts the skins, mission files and video tracks where they need to be. I know that there is some kind of program that does this.

I just don't know what it its and how it works.

I've used http://www.clickteam.com/eng/installcreator.php

Users will have to navigate to any non-standard path though -

ie. NOT C:\Program Files\ etc..

only real advantage over zips and rars is fancy splash screen and self extraction.

I can't figure out if or how you can have this installer do multiple files to multiple destinations. An example would be to have it put all the skins in the correct folders.

Can it do this?
