XFire Portable 1.148.0.0 Dev Test 3

And, on the plus side, you've got a good start for your first portable app. But there's a few things you've got to take care of.

I'll take you through it all...

First the appinfo.ini
--Name should be "Xfire Portable" (I'll be using this "Xfire" because that's how it's listed on the site)
--AppID should be "XfirePortable"
--Publisher should be "Xfire, Inc & PortableApps.com"
--I don't think Xfire is multilingual, so set the launguage to English.
--Trademarks should be "Xfire is a trademark of Xfire, Inc."
--InstallType should be ommited.
--I don't believe Xfire is open source, so set that to false.
--Xfire is not shareable without permission, so that should be false.
--I would set CommercialUse to false to be safe.
--Package version should be the version of Xfire, not Xfire Portable, so "1.148.0.0"
--Display version should be "1.148 Dev Test 1" (or Development if you care to write the extra text).
--Get rid of the [Dependencies] and [SpecialPaths] sections
--Delete the "extraction=".
--Also, you should try to keep all your sections and keys in CamelCase

Now installer.ini
--what are you trying to do with that? What you have there will do nothing with the installer. I think you confused that with the launcher (which I'll get into below). And even then, xfire_lang_us.dll's not a settings file, so it shouldn't be there either.

Xfire Portable.ini
--Rename that file XfirePortable.ini
--Your launcher is doing nothing more than launching the app. The whole purpose of the launcher is to copy over the settings from the Data folder to the computer, and then copy the files back to the data folder when Xfire closes. This way it doesn't leave any files or folders or registry entries behind (which is what defines a portable app). Don't worry though, as it's not difficult to do. It looks like there's 2 folders to take care of, (I haven't looked at the registry. Use regshot the way I mentioned before to see them.)
--It might be a bit tricky here, so I'll just show you what it'll look like:

[DirectoriesMove]
XfireProfile=%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Xfire
XfireAppData=%APPDATA%\Xfire

--If you see any changes to the registry, refer to the manual to see how to handle it.

AppIcons
--Grab a copy of IcoFX Portable
--Drag Xfire.exe (from App\xfire) into the window and select the first icon from the popup.
--Once you see the icon, click the Windows logo in the toolbar and tick the XP Colors: 16, 32, 48 and 256 Colors 16, 32, 48. Save that as appicon.ico into App\AppInfo.
--Then right click on the second image (in the left hand image list), and click Export Image and save it as "appicon_32.png" and do the same for the third image, but save it as appicon_16.png.
--You also need a _128.png image, but it's not required, so we'll hold off on that for now.

Help.html
--You should use a help.html file from another portable app as a template (Notepad2-mod Portable is a good one) for your own help.html.

Recompile the launcher
--Your launcher is using the default icon. Once you finish making the right icons, recompile your launcher to put the icons into it.

Run a regshot
--It is ***EXTREMELY*** important that you run a regshot to be sure your portable app is really a portable app.

License
--You need to add a EULA.txt file with a copy of the license you see in the original Xfire Installer, into your Other\Source folder.

Read up on the format
--You really should read the whole PortableApps.com Format Specifications. I know it's long and boring, but if you wanna get good, reading it is a good place to start.
--The PortableApps.com Launcher manual is definitely something else to read.

Rename the forum topic
--It's always a good idea to name the topic with your portable app and version. Like "Xfire Portable 1.148 Dev[elopment] Test 1, so users and testers can easily tell when there's an update, and because it goes with the flow of the other beta topics.

Overall, though. You did pretty good. Except what I mentioned above. But yeah. Pretty good.

Originally he was trying to everything from installer.ini I creaeted a basic launcher to just run the app as he stated this was for his use only, nothing fancy, in fact all I did was copy and rename the default launcher. I never looked further since I was not nor had intentions to create portable app for this, Just so you know. I have also suggested reading manual etc...

Join IRC right now, I'll be waiting.
