InstallOptions/MUI Image Woes

Joudoki · 11th October 2006, 01:12

1) I have a welcome page for an installer that I have been working on. Now, there is only one big image in that page, and for some reason, at runtime, the image isn't showing up; However, when I copy that image to the installer .exe directory, the image shows up. So, for some reason, the installer is not finding the image unless it's in the same directory as the installer itself.

Have you extracted the image somewhere and written its path to the INI file? If the INI file contains a path that's only available on your computer, it won't work on other computers because it wouldn't be able to find the image. You need to the extract the image somewhere, like $PLUGINSDIR, and write its new path to the INI file.
