ho ho....
Seems that there is a bug in v3.3!
As evilvoice said, xpinstall.exe seems to be looking at %xpinstall%\xpinstall.xml instead of #xpinstall#\xpinstall.xml...

<!-- this tells XPinstall to act as either a standalone window, or "merge" with the GUI installer -->
<!-- values: Standalone : GUIinstall -->
<!-- I'd advise NOT to change this - it's not complete -->
<windowmode>Standalone</windowmode>
<!-- values: Standalone : GUIinstall -->
<!-- I'd advise NOT to change this - it's not complete -->
<windowmode>Standalone</windowmode>
this sounds VERY interesting

Hi,
How can I create a directory (MD), & how can I create a windows variable (SET)?

Wraith...excellent work.
i was wondering tho, if you could implement a two CD setup into XPinstall. If it could prompt you to eject the CD and the new CD would have another .xml file in the root. I would like the idea of a GUI with a two CD install. Just a thought. otherwise keepup the good work

Delete the hexedit please.
I'll be putting v3.4 out very soon.
I've been figuring out a way to do a two CD install. I think I've found a solution, will be testing something for it soon.

maybe not another XML, but perhaps an optional tag to specify CD2, and then it looks for a certain file to determine disk, and then continues, and then when its done, it asks for the original disk and quits.
EDIT: So like, in the config section of something, have the strings for the tag files, CD1 = win51 (everyone has it) and CD2 of who ever's choosing.

Precisely the method I was thinking.

Okay, 3.4 is out with the fixed string... it was in an irregular spot compared to the rest of my stuff in the code, so easy to overlook
(That's my excuse and I'm sticking with it

haha. I guess a good idea for Microsoft would be to call everything a beta. That way its easy to throw the blame at the release. BETA!! LOL!!
