I want to create an installer that:

-installs MP demo
-extracts the 1.037 game exe from the 1.037 patch
-extracts maps and data files from Renegade FDS

-adds demo always.dat into fds always.dat and adds missing sounds (.WAV) as silent sound file to prevent client from crashing:
-use C&C_Under.mix from demo as base (file size ~30mb)
-rename C&C_Under.mix to always.dat
-add demo always.dat files
-add silent sounds for missing WAV sound files(diff sound lists between demo and stock and add silent sounds for those missing
-add FDS always.dat data into the always.dat file

-add FDS maps.
-Install 4.0
-Has renlist as server browser

Issues:
-Missing the M00 single player maps
-Some missing textures
-Some missing non-essential sounds
-No serial
-Mixcheck.exe from 4.0 doesn't play well with this.

Here's what I have no, as a 7z file of the game folder...just need to turn it into an installer after I find something to deal with missing textures.
