NSIS Files

I took my main computer and brought it to use at my lab and since then, when I come home in the evening and have an hour or two to spare, I never have the files I need to write installers. I now have them at home. The projects can now commence...

I have no idea what you're trying to express with this thread/post, but if you need help with NSIS, feel free to contact me (see profile for IM or meet me on IRC). CortUI has a fairly complex NSIS installer, I can also give you repository access if you want.

Well it's like this.

I did all my website design and my installers here at home with my tower PC. This is also the computer that I play Allegiance on. When I opened up my laboratory I needed a PC and a desk and couldn't afford a new one, so I took the home desk and computer. At home, I was left with the laptop that I use to control my telescope. This laptop did not have any of the website's files, nor did it have the NSIS files.

This is where the issues began. I cannot find my USB flash card, my laptop doesn't have a floppy, I am out of blank CD/DVD's, don't have internet at the lab and I didn't have a network set up there either. Getting the files transferred to the laptop was holding me back as this was explained in other threads.

Well, I got my network set up at the lab, but no internet as of yet. I transferred my 10 gigs of website files and all my NSIS files to the laptop yesterday. Now I can create installers and update the website in the evenings when I come home.

The ball is rolling again.

Playing Allegiance on this computer is difficult. It is wireless, and for some reason I have to tilt the laptop at odd angles to connect, and I drop frequently. This is frustrating due to the fact that I have a fast fiber optic connection here. My girlfriends' computer is not an option. We don't use each others computers. I guess I could go hard wire the laptop to the router, but I no longer have a desk in there... /doh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":doh:" border="0" alt="doh.gif" />

In case that was directed at me, I just didn't reply because I didn't see what your story has to do with NSIS, or how I can help you with writing NSIS scripts based on the information given...

no, it wasn't directed at you. I was really pissed off by some peoples attitudes the other night and came here the next day and vented, then removed it. Wrong place for it.

I've checked mIRC a few times but we keep missing each other. My issue that I am having is that I cannot get my radio buttons to work right. I am trying to put together a "Complete Package" that contains all the high res files in one installer and I am trying to add the Iron Coalition bases; the standard high res and the rusty version, allowing the individual to choose which one he wants to install. However, no matter what I try, it will still allow the user to install one, BOTH, or none. My objective is to allow the user to install one, the other, or none but not both.

I have analyzed the installer that is in the examples folder, the installer "Sections", it has functioning radio buttons, but I just cannot get it implemented in my installer. Totally frustrating!

I'm usually (not every day) online between about 18 and 21 UTC and on weekends. If you can't catch me there, you can also contact me by e-mail (see banner).

You'll have to give me more info on your problem and or code snippets that show your particular problem, though.
