The FBX SDK will always install in C:\Program Files\Autodesk\FBX\FbxSdk\2011.2 Perhaps the fact that 64/32 bit apps install to different installation folders could be the issue ? I tried the followings and they all installed silently.įbx20112_converter_win /S /D=C:\temp\tataĮven if you do not specify the destination folder, all the installers are working silently and will install into their default directories. Not sure what it is that you tried to do and which installer we are talking about.

If /S does not perform a silent install, consider submitting a bug report to the installer's creator."Īfter reading your post, I asked one of the developers to check into this, here is a cut-and-paste from his email reply to me: What effect this has, exactly, depends on the person who wrote the script. Incidentally, all /S does is change the installer script's SilentInstall attribute from "normal" to "silent". These options are case-sensitive, so be sure to type them in upper case. NSIS installers recognize /S for silent installation, /NCRC to suppress the CRC (verification) step, and /D=dir to specify the "output directory", which is where the program will be installed. As an alternative, you can run "strings" and grep for "NSIS"). (Actually the verification procedure is optional, but most installers have it enabled. So you can recognize these installers by this behavior.

When an NSIS installer runs, it creates a little window which says verifying installer: N%, where N counts from 0 to 100. It was created by the WinAmp authors to distribute that application, but it is now a general-purpose system which anyone might use. The Nullsoft Scriptable Install System (NSIS) is another open source installation system. This is the documentation for the installer: I can't seem to get the silent switch to work.
