NSIS Un/Installer: updates (for both full/web installers): - Removed vcredist 2008-sp1 and 2010, added vcredist 2010 sp1. - GSdx DLLs rename (+"32"), added avx. - Version to 1.0.0. - Uninstaller: bios removal now has own checkbox (can now remove everything and keep bios). - Uninstaller: registry is cleaned first (better for next install in case uninstall fails for some reason). TODO/ToTest: - Test upgrade from 0.98, 0.97. - Got few crashes and/or errors if files/folders were in use while uninstalling. Look into that. - First install on a clean system: test that first-time-wizard appears (i didn't get the ftw, I possibly had stuff from previous incomplete uninstall). - Add an option to run pcsx2 when the installer completes? - readme/faq have "0.9.8" in filename, but the installer refers to <version>, check if/when it's used. - Cheats folder created at program files. consider at mydocs? - Cheats folder contains what appears to be a valid pnach file for personas 4 (inf health etc). do we want that packaged? - Do we want to mirror vcredist 2010sp1 on pcsx2.code.google/files? (older redists are mirrored). - Change the installer logo to the one used everywhere else? - See if we can use the best gsdx version selected initially (my system supports sse4, but it selects the sse2 dll by default at ftw). - Default KB config for lilypad? all other plugins can work without configuring manually, but without a controller configured, it's very meh.

You may selectively unload plugins you do not wish to package prior to running the NSIS

Compilation Targets and Plugin Inclusion
--------------------------------------------
NSIS Installer: * Add the major/minor version number to the generated exe's. * Default to using the HEAD revision for all exe's and plugins in the package, instead of versioning each one independently. * Update instructions readme to mention use of Eclipse as a NSIS editor and integrated environment. git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@3122 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
2010-05-30 02:00:19 +00:00
The installer will include plugins only if they are present. If you do not build plugins, or
remove some (or all) plugins before running the nsis script, only PCSX2 and whatever remaining
plugins will be packaged.

GSdx SSE2, SSSE3, SSE4 and AVX/AVX2 versions are all included into the installer *if* they are present.

You will need to follow the above instructions and compile all release targets to get all the
GSdx DLLs.
NSIS Installer: * Add the major/minor version number to the generated exe's. * Default to using the HEAD revision for all exe's and plugins in the package, instead of versioning each one independently. * Update instructions readme to mention use of Eclipse as a NSIS editor and integrated environment. git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@3122 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288

Recommendations to Developers
--------------------------------------------
From Air: I use Eclipse to edit NSIS scripts. Do a google search for 'nsis eclipse' and it
should take you to the NSIS wiki with instructions on how to set up a NSIS environment in
Eclipse. This typically only takes me a few minutes (yes it's really that painless). Via
Eclipse you can use F2 and F3 for online help and context help on NSIS commands, and the syntax
highlighting is very clean and NSIS-specific. Additionally it'll give you Visual Studio-style
hyperlinks for errors during compilation, so that you can simply click on an error and be taken
right to the offending line of code. Highly recommended! :)

--------------------------------------------
TODO / Wish List!!
--------------------------------------------
* pcsx2-dev should probably be an optional section, conditionally scripted only if the
file is present at compilation time, and packaged.
Installer Improvements: * installer will automatically version itself to the svn checkout * default installation folder, filenames, and links all contain the revision number now. * Plugins are optionally included into the package (details in txt) * VC++ Redist detection: the Redist installer is only extracted/invoked if it's not already installed. git-svn-id: http://pcsx2.googlecode.com/svn/trunk@1709 96395faa-99c1-11dd-bbfe-3dabce05a288
