It seems that NSIS can only use .bmp files. However, NSIS uses LZMA to compress the files, so the size of them are negligible. I also set `SetCompressorDictSize 64` option in the NSIS script, so the size of the installer is now smaller than the old non-MUI2 installer. > > Solution: Use modern syntax, MUI2 and make it work better.
