I thought I'd put some closure. I was able to figure it out.
I had to create something called an installscript which takes the form of a .vdf file.
The script itself looks like this.
"InstallScript"
{
"Run Process"
{
"OWL Installer"
{
"process 1" "%INSTALLDIR%\\Install\\ndi-runtime-4.5.1-Windows.exe"
"command 1" "/silent"
"NoCleanUp" "1"
}
}
}
A big help was looking at the vdf files of other games which also required an installscript, such as directx install, anti cheat software.
Hi I have a game that I'm in the middle of packaging,
In order for the game to run, it requires some prerequisite software, I've provided the installers inside it. However is there a way that I can have the installed files already inside my packaged game and disregard the installers entirely? I like to keep all my content localized to within the one folder and not have to install things outside in the C:/ProgramFiles
For my users, I don't want them to install anything, just click and play.
