I have problems installling anything with windows installer. I've tried to fix it many times to no avail. Is there any version of PJ64 1.6 that is a different setup file? Like extraction or anything like the older versions? Any help would be appreciated

Not on the offical site, no. I know Windows Installer is crap, so you will have to find an unofficial source.

does it install any files elsewhere besides the program folder you install to? could i have someone else install it on their computer, then just sent me the program folder?

He wants a zipped version instead of an installer. There's no reason for the installer, there's no registry to install or anything. It's just to look professional.

I'm also too lazy to do it for you. Sorry.

The installer route was chosen to ease uninstallation (no more reg files to clear registry entries).

Install on another computer where you have full rights etc., zip up the contents of the folder and transfer it to another PC (via email, or CD/USB Flash drive). Extract and it'll work.

The problem for us PJ64 users is that the licence won't allow us to redistribute it when it's modified, and I'm not sure if it's currently possible to unpack an InstallShield 9 installer.

I have PJ64 and Project64 and some others in a zipped version without installer and they all work very well so just go ahead and do it, if it doesn`t work i will mail mine to you if you want.
