3:22 you can save time by just add the parent folder of your game. So if you game.exe inside TitleGame folder then you need just add TitleGame folder then everything looks good.
Well, the problem is the inno is reading only one file from a folder, but we need all of the files from that folder. So we can use a trick. We put that folder into another folder so that inno can basically read all the contents from the subfolder. It's how inno works, we can't do anything.
Installers are more for a fully released game, so I would say, you don't really need to make an installer for a game jam. And it will save you some valuable time as well. But if you want to release your game it's good to make an installer. It's more professional and easy for the players.
@@ComplexDimensions Thank you mate.I am also packing my game right now with inno but have one major problem.Is it possible to tell the inno installer to pack the game with administrative rights turned on? If i install the final packaged game in C> x86 it crashes my game because my game creates txt save files and windows firewall jumps by blocking the game.I can always let the firewall make a exception or just go in to the properties on the game exe and turn on Run as administrator but I think it is going to be more clean and pro if the final packaged game comes out of inno setup with administrative rights turned on. Any ideas mate? I tried placing in inno PrivilegesRequired=admin under setup but no effect :(
@@123OGNIAN Thanks for asking. I think that the setup doesn't have anything to do with the firewall. The Firewall just blocks it anyway. The administrator mode means that it will install the game for all users, so that's not what you are looking for. Is that happening only in x86? Try saving data differently (e.g. playerprefs). Let me know if you solved it.
can somebody help me. when is making the installer after i click finish. it sis could not access the file cause it use in a other procces (or somthing) and i dont no what to do.
Nice video… I was wondering if you could please answer a question for me When the set up ask for the application name and application version… 1: does the application name have to include the .EXE and 2: how do you know what the application version is? Thank you
You "ARE NOT" making an installer for your game... You have downloaded an installer program, and you are CONFIGURING the Inno installer program, to install your game. What I was expecting to see, because your VIDEO TITLE SAYS "How to make a installer for your unity game", was Creating an Installer program from SCRATCH, using a programming language, like C#. You need to rename your video TITLE, to something like, "How to CONFIGURE THE INNO installer program, to install your game"!!!

Thanks bro you helped alot. before it used to tell "failed to load mono", but now it is working EXELLENT ! i am your new subsscriber
It helped me a lot, keep this content coming up.
Thank you very much, bro.
I'm curious as to why the folders needed an extra subfolder layer beneath them. Is this a requirement by Inno?
Well, the problem is the inno is reading only one file from a folder, but we need all of the files from that folder. So we can use a trick. We put that folder into another folder so that inno can basically read all the contents from the subfolder. It's how inno works, we can't do anything.
@@ComplexDimensions Thank you very much for the clarification. Keep up the great work!
Nice Video. Helpful. Can't wait to see next videos.
thank u so much i am now able to share my games with my family for them to test and play !
Say I was doing a game jam on icy.io would I put just the installer or the whole folder?

Dimension Games cool thanks!
Also if you you ever wanted to do a game jam with someone, I would be down.

thx for this tutorial ,you very help me
Thank you!, useful tutorial
thanks for the tutorial
Will i still need the copied files or can i delete it?
If you don't want to make multiple installers (e.g. 64 and 32 bit), you can delete them. They are not needed for anything else.

To be fair there was nothing to configure, it was a blank script from scratch, made with the help of a wizard
