Re: may i ask why the .msi app get so "big"?
sure..
I have included a lot of images in the MSI because loading them from the pkg files is slow.
These images are for the terrain decals. Widows has a nasty habit of cleaning out the decal images when it cleans the temp folder.
It should not do this but it does. I gave up trying to figure it out and to make sure the decals are there, I just include them in a folder protected from windows washing machine.
Also There is the index XML file that greatly speeds up finding what pgk contains what parts of the tanks.
The tank parts are spread between as many as 5 pkgs. More if you add _HD textures.

I'd love to change the world but I can't get it to compile.

There is no reason to download and build the app.
Just use the MSI, if that's what you are asking.
