In version 3 tallow.exe does not exist. You will need to use heat.exe.
It's very easy to do this There is a good explanation of it here
http://installing.blogspot.com/2006/04/heatexe-making-setup-easier.html of
how to use it. Typically you'll run it like this (to do what you want):
heat.exe dir c:\mydir -template:product -gg -out mydir.wxs

*Subject:* [WiX-users] Adding tons of files to an MSI
Can anyone help me to automatically add a directory and all its
contents to an MSI?
The problem: I have a directory whose contents is auto generated and
therefore can be considered fairly random. The directory may contain
thousands of files so adding them manually with the <File ...> tag is
not an option.
My question: How can I add the directory, say "myDir", and all the
files in myDir to the MSI automatically? Are there some <File
Source="myDir\*" ... /> option?
(I am using the latest version of Wix 3)
