Portable App Development

This will be my last try, I am out of options !

I have been trying to become a member of the NSIS / Winamp Forum, without any luck !

It keeps giving the message that (my) Email is banned by the administrator.
But it doesn't seem to matter to use a different computer, email or even my girl friend trying to sign up from a different computer, username and email-address.

It keeps on giving the same (standard) message !!!

Sorry. The administrator has banned your email address. To contact the administrator click here

Hey all. Midi here. Just got a couple things I wanna get up here.

QUESTION 1:
I'm making my app in Game Maker 7, so if I use the install creator, is it going to try and modify the program to add the splash screen? If not I can make the splash screen myself, but then that leads to my second question.

QUESTION 2:
If my game gets put on the list here, would I be told of the URL for it before it gets fully released so I can fill out the URL banner on the bottom?

Hello,

I'd like to know if it (or will be made) possible to make Portable Firefox use Portable Java to run an applet. This would be extremely useful... but currently seems impossible.

Application: PacketTracer 5.1
Category: Utilities
Description: Packet Tracer is a powerful network simulation program that allows students to experiment with network behavior and ask “what if” questions.

Been playing around with this and got it to work, sort of. Still need to figure out how to get the NSIS installer to do the work of adding and removing the registry keys that it needs for me, but here's some base information.

If you have VLCPortable on your stick, and FireFoxPortable.
You will need to get a hold of the NPVLC.DLL and NPVLC.DLL.MANIFEST files.
These files will go in your VLCPortable\App\vlc folder, right along side VLC.EXE.

The files that are used are as follows:

npvlc.dll
libvlc.dll
libvlc.dll.manifest
libvlccore.dll

This is a zipped vmac, that starts from the portable apps platform with the 24Mb memory loaded.
the first exe is an compiled bat file, original is there also as a .bat file.
Maybe you guys can make a portable app out of it.

Happy to help

Is there any way to hide aspects of so-called "portable" applications such as Effective File Search for windows?

I see the uninstall programs as well as the main installer, but I only want the main executable to be visible.

What I'm asking for is a way to write a .ini file that works regardless of what happens in the menu itself such as hide/unhide.

I hope this is possible.

I want to be sure about this, before I send the next development test with it included!
I am really waiting for this answer, since I've got a real problem extracting the winamp installer with the PAinstaller.

I'm asking this since you told me you have the license, but I never got definite answer on this question !

Thanx

It would be really handy if the rollover tool-tip on the applications in the PortableApps menu would give a brief description of what each program actually does. I installed a bunch of programs and don't remember what all of them do.

PortableApps are great for PC install (unpack & run) and great for distribution (unpack, preconfigure & send a copy to user). In that way I miss an multiuser install option (call it half portable) that puts Data directory in %APPDATA%

Yes, I know the whole point of portability its to use only one directory, and avoid %APPDATA%. But, as sysadmin, I see PortableApps+%APPDATA% a very good and easy way to deploy software with a one-liner:

xcopy /s \\server\dir\my_preconfigured_PortableApp %PROGRAMFILES%\Portable\
