splash.exe
Hi everybody !

I have a problem with NSIS 1.96.
A good script written with the 1.95 version does work very well.
But with the 1.96, my splash screen doesn't appear anymore.

I don't understand...

Post your script and we will be able to give some advise...

I expect it has something to do with an old .onInit problem...

Clary,

this is the problem: splash only takes a file argument without an extension and expects per default the extension .bmp. So it cannot find the dat file:

Change the script into:

Function .onInit 
SetOutPath $TEMP 
File /oname=spltmp.bmp "my_splash.bmp" 
File /oname=spltmp.exe "C:\program files\nsis\splash.exe" 
ExecWait '"$TEMP\spltmp.exe" 2000 $HWNDPARENT spltmp' 
Delete $TEMP\spltmp.exe 
Delete $TEMP\spltmp.dat 
FunctionEnd

So it was not an .onInit problem :)
