Would it be possible to make a portable aurora  in a similar way?

I pulled a couple lines from the relevant section...

Code: [Select]
File24=@MSCHRT20.OCX,$(WinSysPath),$(DLLSelfRegister),$(Shared),5/22/00 12:00:00 AM,1009336,6.0.88.4
File25=@COMCT232.OCX,$(WinSysPath),$(DLLSelfRegister),$(Shared),6/24/98 12:00:00 AM,164144,6.0.80.22
F
These are from the section titled [Setup1 Files]

This shows the file name, where it gets placed (in this case windows system directory), any actions to take with it, and file version info. That's the section you want to copy the files from.

Thanks, but opening it with Notepad++ just giving me a file filled with (for me) nonsense.

Is this possible? I want to play Aurora at my uni (plenty of spare time) but I cannot install it there because I don't have administrator status.
I therefore installed it on my USB, which seemed to work on my own laptop. When I try to play at my uni, however, I get this error:
Is there any way around this?

Aurora installs a number of system type files. In theory, you could open the setup.lst file in notepad or the like, see what files are installed, copy them from your system into the Aurora directory on the usb drive. That might work.

No warranties implied or explicitly stated ;)
