00:21 MTDiscord <exe_virus> Well, at least 7zip can extract normal NSIS installer .exe's, that's true
00:21 MTDiscord <exe_virus> Probably WinRAR and others can too, but base windows cannot. But yeah it's basically the same as a .zip for power users
00:29 user333_ just do portable, exe installer, and msi installer for a wide variety
00:29 user333_ (i prefer portable because it's easier to back up and move to another PC)
00:57 MTDiscord <landarvargan> Krock: Yeah, I was just thinking from a normie Windows user perspective though. I was using a self-compiled Windows build of Luanti before I knew you could extract exes like a zip file
01:01 MTDiscord <landarvargan> Quite a lot of the installers in my Downloads directory are .exe, so NSIS seems like the best option to me. I wonder how it handles updating existing installations (with newer and older version installers)

03:12 MTDiscord <exe_virus> Well in the NSIS that sfan posted, it looks like it just updates the shortcut on the desktop to the latest, and puts each version into its own folder in the user folder. Unsure if it also puts mods/games into each version, or in a shared location....
03:22 user333_ will there still be portable x64 builds?
