Installer
InstallShield installer located at /Install/Install.exe. The files seem to be extracted from /Install/data1.cab. InstallShield cabs can be extracted manually with unshield or i5comp.
The installer appears to do the following:
- Extract group "Program Executable Files" from data1.cab to APPDIR
- Copies /Install/Install/WA.exe from cd to APPDIR
- Copies /Data/Resources/LANGUAGE/readme.rtf to APPDIR
- Copies /Data/Resources/LANGUAGE/names.wdb to APPDIR/User
- Copies the directory /Data/User/Speech/English/ to create APPDIR/User/Speech. does this change if the language changes?
- Creates empty directories Fanfare, SavedLevels, Schemes, and Support in APPDIR/User.
- Writes the following to the registry:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\App Paths] [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\App Paths\Worms2.Exe] @='''APPDIR'''"\\Worms2.Exe" "Path"='''APPDIR''' [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Team17 Software Ltd.] [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Team17 Software Ltd.\Worms Armageddon] [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Team17 Software Ltd.\Worms Armageddon\1.00.000] [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Team17SoftwareLTD] [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Team17SoftwareLTD\WormsArmageddon] "PATH"='''APPDIR''' [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Team17SoftwareLTD\WormsArmageddon\Data] "SubLogicSeed"=dword:00000000
- Sets up an uninstaller at APPDIR/Uninst.isu and makes an entry for Add/Remove programs
- Installs DirectX 6 without asking?
- Adds links to its group in the start menu:
- Read Me
- Sound Bank Editor
- Uninstall Worms Armageddon
- Worms Armageddon
- Adds a desktop shortcut to Worms Armageddon
Unshield appears to incorrectly rename Graphics/Background Stuff to Graphics/Background_Stuff.
