The 'EIK' is dead, but the 'VIP' is born,...the EasyInstallKit is herewith officially renamed to 'Visual Install Pack'!
And its not only a namechange, there are also some serious changes under the hood, mostly to make it smaller in size and of course to fix remaining bugs.
ChangeLog EIK 4.0 to VIP 1.0:
--------------------------------------
Name changed to Visual Install Pack (short: VIP).
VPLauncher removed.
NVRAMs removed except a few GTB ones.
Font 'mssong' removed, that sucker was 2.5MB alone!
Descriptions updated.
Disclaimer updated.
EULAs of VP and VPM (MAME) merged into one file to be shown (and accepted) at the beginning of the installation.
PreInstall-ReadMe added to describe the installing process for absolute beginners.
VIP now also creates a shortcut to PinballNirvana in the startmenu and on the desktop.
Installer now comes in a RAR archive to lower download size.
It is on my other server now so the URL has changed as well.
Bugs fixed:
User data could not be accessed.
Install path could not be changed in some cases.
ToDo:
Fix the problem where doubleclicking .vpt files does not result in the table to start nor to load into the editor although .vpt files are registered with VP.
(The solution is already known to me,...it will be correct in the next version.)
IMO there are no bugs left this time,...i tested it thoroughly several times and it worked abolutely perfect each single time.
If you notice anything that i didnt see please let me know a.s.a.p. so i can fix it.
Regards,
Phoenixx
