creating instant frozen bubble need help...

ive taken instant filezilla's code from portaSoft and modified it to add the ability of running of a cd and it works with 7-zip. and i use frozen bubble (ive been messing with slax Smile ) alot so i wanted to make a single exe version of it but everytime i compile and run it it says "sdl.dll not found maybe installing might fix this problem," so then i take silent install off to see a gui of the install it copies the files and then runs so i try runnning again it says the samething so then i go to the install dir which is %temp%\IFB then i see that the sdl.dll and all the other files have copied and then yet agian the windows saying the problem with the dll is still there so then i click on frozen-bubble.exe in the temp folder and then it runs (with the other frozen-bubble process running complaining about sdl) and then i close both and the nsis script finishes but and deletes the tmp dir but doesnt delete writetest.tmp (it installes itself to the $EXEDIR to check read only media) and so what im a doin wrong

heres a link to the source to help
http://www.geocities.com/nycjv321/ifbt.txt
.txt becuase geocities doesn't recnize .nsi Sad

but for the install files i havent finished adding the install files but as i said frozen-bubble.exe will run from temp (manually) after coping the files i have so far.

Thx to john for the idea of Live and portasoft for instant apps

(p.s. is there anyway to get the names of the files within a dir since there are so many graphic files with frozenbubble its taking forever to get the names and add them to the script Sad

Well

You change the $INSTDIR to $EXEDIR but don't change it back to $TEMP/IFB
(p.s. Yes. Get HM NIS Edit which has it in the wizard. Will fix a few bugs you have.)

lol i meant $EXEDIR what do u mean by "don't change it back to $TEMP/IFB" and "(p.s. Yes. Get HM NIS Edit which has it in the wizard. Will fix a few bugs you have.)"

becuase i already use HM NIS edit but the only wizard i have used was to create the custom install pages?

Go onto the New Script Wizard

Use default until the Application Files screen. Click on the icon that looks like a directory tree. Add the Frozen Bubble directory.

o ok thx but
"file /r 'file_here'" also works. another "?" how come frozen bubble says sdl.dll not found is it because the %temp% folder is an invalide path?
