NSISBI aims to remove the current 2GB limit found in NSIS. This version adds support for using a separate file for storing the install data, therefore allowing installer sizes up to a theoretical max size of 8EB. Single files are still limited to 2GB. The compiler (makensis) is designed to run on 64 bit machines as this is the feature needed to make installers bigger than 2GB. The command to use an external file is: SetExOutFile false | true. The only down side is that solid compression is not supported, due to its design it just isn't feasible to add support. An undocumented 'Target' command also exists that allows the target architecture to be selected. It is: Target cpu-charset. Valid values are: x86-ansi, x86-unicode, amd64-unicode. Built on 04/01/2016 on Windows 10, using Visual Studio 2008 with the Windows 7 SDK. This version creates native 64 bit installers as the default, this will be changed back to 32 bit installers as the default in the future.
