NSClient++ 0.5.0.62, single package for 32- or 64-bit with configuration control
This package installs the 32-bit or 64-bit version of NSClient++, as appropriate, and opens the necessary holes in the firewall.
This package controls configuration with nscp.exe settings --path path to key -key key name --set value instead of copying an INI file.
Note that when upgrading from 0.3.8, firewall rules need to be switched to point to the new nscp.exe instead of nsclient++.exe. This package handles that with netsh advfirewall.

NSClient++ 0.4.1
One package for the 32bit-version, one for the 64bit.
I create an sample init-file, and copy it with each install/upgrade.
The remove-Tag is a bit crude, because i used the (maybe new) package for deinstalling, because i couldn't figure out, how to get the registry-key ...

NSClient++ Plugins
If you have own scripts for NSClient++, this package may be useful.
Because i haven't set a version number for the scripts, i use the date and write it to a file on the local computer. A batch-skript in the tools-directory compare xml-version with installed-version (see below), to call it i used a %SETTINGS%-Variable from WPKG, which link on the WPKG-Root (I should define a own Variable for that, i now ... maybe later :-)
<package
id="nsclientplugins"
name="NSClient++ Plugins"
revision="%version%"
priority="0"
reboot="false">
<variable name="version" value="2013-05-27" />
<variable name="versionfile" value="%ProgramFiles%\NSClient++\scripts\pluginsversion.txt" />
<check type="execute" path='%SETTINGS%tools\compareStringAndFile.bat "%version%" "%versionfile%"' condition="exitcodeequalto" value="0"/>
<!-- stop NSclient++ -->
<install cmd='net stop nscp'>
<exit code="0" />
<!-- If Nsclient++ already stopped, continue too. -->
<exit code="2" />
</install>
<!-- copy new skripts -->
<install cmd='xcopy %SOFTWARE%\nsclientpp\scripts\* "%ProgramFiles%\NSClient++\scripts\" /q /y'/>
<!-- set version -->
<install cmd='%ComSpec% /c echo %version%>"%versionfile%"'/>
<!-- to be sure: set executionpolicy of the powershell (If you don't have powershellskripts, you don't need this) -->
<install cmd='powershell Set-ExecutionPolicy remotesigned -Confirm:$false'/>
<!-- and start NSclient++ -->
<install cmd='net start nscp'/>
<upgrade include="install" />

And the compareStringAndFile.bat:
@echo off
REM compare parameter 1 (string) with content of parameter 2 (file)
set /p FILECONTENT=<%2
set FILECONTENT="%FILECONTENT%"
REM echo %FILECONTENT%
REM echo %1
if %1 == %FILECONTENT% exit /B 0
REM echo "Die Strings sind ungleich!"
exit /B 1
