..hi guys..do you mind to recommend me some very very good installer program/utility what will allow me to check/install necessary drivers i will pack within installer package, if system where game is installed doesnt have proper drivers and so on..commercial or not doesnt matter.. |

This might be what you need: http://www.installaware.com/express-features.htm Around the middle of the page, there's a feature bout installing drivers. :) Edit: A bit pricey though :-s |

Bloody hell, does that installer make you a coffee while your waiting too! :) Dabz |

Bloody hell, does that installer make you a coffee while your waiting too! :) I've tried googling for other alternatives, but this seems to be the cheapest one that has anything to do with drivers, architecture (x86, x64) and such. Others started pricing from 799$ up to 10,000$ (for network deployments, years of support and stuff like that). Still, you only have to buy this once if I'm not mistaking. |

I have to agree with Dabhand. There are plenty of installers to choose from, some free and some very cheap that will do what you want. It sounds like you just need one that is scriptable. At work, we use Paquet Builder for deployments: http://www.gdgsoft.com/pb/ http://www.gdgsoft.com/pb/custom-actions.aspx I have never used it, but MS has a free installer.

For me it got to be innosetup, its free, and it is customisable, see http://www.jrsoftware.org/isinfo.php Also Nullsoft NSIS, very powerful, but bit hard, see http://nsis.sourceforge.net/Main_Page |

NSIS is my installer of choice, when not using Maven2 or EasyInstall. |
