I forgot to make a shortcut to the desktop but i think Its fine

[xoft]

I'd have preferred to see the install script

This has a few issues:
- where are you installing? Into Program Files? Bam - UAC won't let ordinary users write there (-> world and config not writable)
- you're using absolute paths for files, this script won't work on any other computer than yours
- if there is ever a new file added to the plugins, or webadmin folder, your script will have to be modified (and it will be forgotten to be modified . Use wildcards - *.lua, *.ini etc.

[NiLSPACE]

Got another update for the build script
this allows you to give more people admin permissions and add more worlds.
also when the configuration is finished (or if you pressed that you don't want to configure MC-Server)
the script wil create a map called MC-Server in the map where you placed this script.
MC-Server will copy all the MC-Server files into there including the new settings.ini

[xoft]

If I didn't know german, I'd have trouble understanding your post - what maps?? )) Luckily I still remember a thing or two, so I know Die Mappe = map / folder

Sounds good enough for time being. Didn't have the chance to inspect the config script.

this was a way i found on internet so i used this.
it install in: C:\Program Files (x86)\FakeTruth\MC-Server

its not germen its dutch sorry i posted it with my mobile phone and it has auto correct.
map = folder indeed.
here is the code if you want to take a look at it without downloading the script:

its probably not the cleanest code but hey it works

[NiLSPACE]

is it alright if i make a tutorial on the wiki using this script?

[NiLSPACE]

This has a few issues:
- where are you installing? Into Program Files? Bam - UAC won't let ordinary users write there (-> world and config not writable).

To wolven that problem you could open it as an administrator.

[xoft]

[...] you could open it as an administrator.

Which is exactly the "solution" that is not recommended. You should not run programs as administrator unless that program does something administrative; and it should run as the administrator only for the minimum time needed. Security 101.

IMHO much better solution would be to install into either %appdata% or %allusersprofile% (easy), and put the configurator directly into the installer (quite an advanced feat)
