All commercial games have their own customized installation interface. Does anyone know how to make one for a VB game? I know of no way to use the package and deployment wizard to create something that looks unique.

There is a utility call setup2go that you can get a slightly limited version for free, or a complete version for a small amount. It is much more flexible, although I've only used the free version so I don't know all it can do. I got it at webattack.com
The P&D comes with source code for the Setup1.exe, so you can make any changes you want.
It should be in this folder:
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\VB98\Wizards\PDWizard\Setup1
Shoot, I didn't know that. I am definitely gonna try some stuff. I don't mind the standard installation, but it would be fun to test the possibilties.
