I know that several people have offered a pack with an automatic installer. Is there any way an installer could be posted that would enable people with content only to bundle them with models, files, etc.?

I know it would help me once I get the models to go into the game. Therefore it may help others who don't know how to do either.

im not sure exactly whay you mean but if your asking how to make and installer for your content you could use the free install creator from www.advancedinstaller.com if you set it up correctly it will install the files you select to the selected folders off a root folder and this root folder musst be the FPSC root then it will work

Thanks

I personally use Inno Setup:

http://www.innosetup.com

If you get the starter pack which includes ISTool, making an installer is pretty easy. It is also extensible--for instance, I'm going to use the Inno Key Generator tool to make a registration system.

http://www.mjfreelancing.com/IKG.htm

And you don't need the Extensions that IKG says you need, they're a part of the latest Inno Setup version. This method is more complicated but it'll do until RastaMan releases the Registration Code version of FPSPack.
