I have performed a search with keyword "Autorun.inf" in the forum and have not quite found an answer to the question I am posting here today.
"COR Entertainment" has developed three "free" very high quality games and their titles are; "Battle for Earth" at 136mb, "Alien Arena" at 127mb and "Martian Chronicles" at 127mb. They are downloaded individually in one complete "Installshield" package. "Alien Arena" has a 58mb update that is used to correct some issues with playing online and, I think, some other performance wrinkles. I am familiar with writing an autorun.inf file to have these automatically start to install when the cd I burnt them to is inserted into the drive. Without the use of an "Install Menu", is there some way that I can write an autorun for "Alien Arena" so that the update file will automatically install after I install the main game? By looking at other autoruns I see commands such as, "shell", "run" etc. I also see that the [;] is used. All I want to do is to automatically run the update after the main game has been installed. Can this be done with a single autorun file?
Thank you for your time and for any responses I may receive in reference to this.
