hi,
I have tried Advanced Installer , its a great product for a installation authoring tools.
but I am not contented with the current features Advanced Installer have for me, because i know the future of Advanced Installer is really unpredictable meaning it either get closed down or become stronger in the Software World.
I therefore would like to make some request in order to let you ppl know about my features that I would like to see in future version, so that you can attract more ppl to your software.
Comments:
Its very friendly interface makes me feel like using all the components but I dun have so much component to implement into it.Its is good to see a installer authoring tools, which would soon be well known.I would recommend to my forums members and my family and friends who are interested in creating an installation for their stuff.
Thanks for creating a wonderful tools
Suggestion:
1. would it be possible to add a features under " User Interface ", Additional Global Settings with this functions...
- Settings for the type of Welcome Dialogs & Banner Dialogs would be used e.g. jpg,bmp,gif,png and others that you think is good
- Settings for compress, enable the dialogs to be compress in users settings e.g compression - store,normal,average,high,ultra high
- Settings for Dialog's message for every single component, like the readme, licensed , program and others
- Settings that would be able to easily put in new dialog that are jpg,bmp and others, so that be able to add new dialogs at the Dialog settings
My idea for the above suggestions, I found out that the MSI / exe installer that were built or huge, especially when too many dialogs are added, I created my own dialogs, save it as jpg then rename it to bmp, this decreases the installer size of my project, it would be better if there is an internal compress to compress these dialogs even better, plus improving the speed on loading the installation, as i found out that everytime I use my installer or advanced installer setup, its flicks twice before settling down, its kinda weird but i hope this could be improved.
2. Under Project Definition - Media
would it be possible create a better compress media
This one I have not much comments but to say you need a good compressor that have speed in extraction and compression
that's all for now
Thanks again for creating this forum and software
