I've been wondering how does the installing process of JJ2 look like. I saw some image where Spaz is about to press the 'self destruct' button, but that's just about it.

Are there any more cool pictures in the installing process such as this one? And if there is, can someone put them here?

Although, contacting me and giving me the installer WOULD be nice too.

If I recall correctly, that is the only image shown during the installation progress.

Crap

Also, does the self destruct button actually destruct something?

No, you can't press the button.

Well, choosing Install will get you the standard InstallShield dialog, containing a standard 16-color image (nothing Jazz related of course).

Also, Spaz already pressed the button and, as in real life, you can't press pressed buttons. :p

So in a way it was Spaz! He was responsible for the destruction of the Jazz Jackrabbit franchise :P.

Nope, it was greenskinned space Han Solorabbit. Some people mistook him for and marketed him as Jazz, the rest is history.

No, God killed the franchise by choosing not to publish JJ3.

:robo:

And on the subject of the installer, I seem to remember the Jazz drawing from the JCS help menu at one point, but other than that, I think it's fairly plain.

That button doesn't look pressed (or pushed), else it would look like the "iNSTALL" button on screenshot below.http://www.pukenukem.com/puke/images/setup.png

Oh, I didn't remember what the pressed button looked like. Spaz's button looked awfully pressed to me due to it's finger position.

Thanks for making that big screen. I'm too lazy to insert my JJ2 CD again. :p

No problem. I have the installer on my hard drive anyway.

Nice. So the self destruct button isn't pressed by Spaz.
But still, does it have any function or is it just to look at?
