 Pak Creator is a plugin for the Unreal Editor that allows users to create .pak files from content plugins. Content plugins in Unreal contain only assets and are useful for distributing game content to users or customers, such as in game modding or architectural applications. The plugin serves as a convenient tool for developers who wish to avoid using the Unreal Project Launcher. It generates .pak files only; to load and use the created pak file, users must employ the engine's pak functions or the Pak Loader plugin. To use traditional pak files, the "Use Io Store" setting in project settings must be disabled. Important note: if the generated pak file is very small and contains no assets, ensure there is at least one map (including an empty one) inside the /Game folder, as Unreal requires at least one map to successfully create the pak file. The Example Project is available for testing. Features include: creating .pak files with a single click, selecting a target platform (Windows, Mac, Linux, or Android), and choosing multiple content plugins for packaging. The target platform must be installed in the engine via the Epic Games Launcher.
