    Is there any way to make a games installer install a cracked exe instead of the normal one.

    Well, possibly if you know how to code game installers, but why would you need to? Is including the modified exe on the disc in a different folder too difficult?

    I've seen skullptura rips that unpacks all of the installer files along with the crack, all that is needed is for the user to run a setup.bat file. How does he accomplish this?

    He codes his own installers with various different third party high-compression algorithms.

    Simply put, he's a genius :)

    Ok, so he's not, but i wouldn't know where to start...

    But Sam's right; if you're going to pirate something, don't be nit-picking about how you install the thing :p
