[Twiffles]

That's somewhat ironic... XD

 

[macherie]

Cheers Hit, for taking the time to help out the noobs of the R4.

in what I consider to be absolutely rediculous fashion, I took a look at this installer (quiet night) and when I downloaded it, it was frigging RARed hahahahahahahahahah.

here is the full URL http://www.hotlinkfiles.com/files/630780_z...syInstaller.rar

You don't have to unzip it, just open the rar and click the exe file
It will automatically grab the required files
So that still makes it easier
Btw. i have tried to add all required files into the exe, but i couldn't find a way in visual basic

but then there are those who don't have WinRAR that are like "how do i open this rar file?"

I wasn't digging at you Hit, I just thought it kind of ironic

Just thought I'd steal some thunder >.>

My R4 Easy installer:

R4Installer.exe

I'll call this version 0.5, as it does what it's supposed to do. However, I'd like to get around to:
Automagic install of Bug-fixed yasu firmware
More options
Back buttons

Features:

Single .exe - no reliance on RAR files!
Not written in VB - doesn't require 4(!) different dll/ocx files to run
Automagically downloads firmware from the internet (yay)
Small UI
Looks like a windows program
Works in Linux (lol)
Fast and easy.
Hit featured in credits (for the idea

)
No Comic Sans

Drawbacks:

Untested on windows.
Please tell me if it does indeed work >.>
No back button (As of Yet)

Good idea with downloading the files
This way you dont have to include the files
Did my app ask for dll/ocx files actually?
Because i can include this but i thought the required ocx files where already included with windows
Where did you code yours in?

 

[arctic_flame]

I coded mine in AutoIt v3

Yes, your app requires dll/ocx files if you don't have the visual basic runtimes installed (I didn't)

I just realised my program does have a dependency

It requires Internet Explorer 3 or greater to download files...
Maybe in the next version I'll remove that dependency alltogether

AutoIt is also Basic so i suppose its some kind of Visual Basic 6?

 

[arctic_flame]

It's BASIC-like, but not really. It's like a cross between BASIC and C
