Custom launch profiles are required to generate both the base packaged build and patch files. Follow the steps below:

 

 

Step 1. Create a Base Packaged Profile

  1. Open Project Launcher > Add a Custom Launch Profile

 

  1. Set:

    • Cook Mode: By The Book

    • Platform: Windows

    • Culture: en

    • Maps: Select your working map

 

 

 

  1. Under Release/DLC/Patching Settings:

    • Enable: Create a release version of the game for distribution

    • Release version: 1.0

 

 

 

 

  1. Under Advanced Settings:

    • ✔ Iterative Cooking

    • ✔ Compress Content

    • ✔ Store all content in a single file (unrealPak)

 

 

 

  1. Package: Package & store locally

    • ✔ Retain the staged directory

 

 

 

  1. Deploy: Do not deploy

    • Maps: Select your working map

 

 

 

  1. Under Release/DLC/Patching Settings:

    • New release version: 1.1

    • Release version this is based on: 1.0

    • ✔ Generate Patch

 

 

  1. Under Advanced Settings:

    • ✔ Compress Content

    • ✔ Store all content in a single file (unrealPak)

Important Notes:

  • Never remove the base game .pak file — the app won’t run without it.

  • Ensure patch files follow the correct naming and sequence.

  • Patch upload sequence matters — higher numbered patches override lower ones.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Best Practices

  • Upload base game first, then patches sequentially.

  • Always retain older patch files before overwriting.

  • Ensure correct naming:
    e.g., testPatch3-Windows_0_P.pak, testPatch3-Windows_1_P.pak

  • Removing a patch reverts the app to the previous version automatically.
