Unreal Engine 4: Read files outside the pak file

[elybelbely]

Hi. I translated hellblade: senua's sacrifice. there was a .pak file in the game. so I unpacked that file and paste the unpacked to game directory and removed .pak file completely. and then translated the subtitle file in localization folder. everything is working fine but in unpacked version of the game, the game is much slower in loading and there is lag in game. beside that I want to give the translated version of the game to my friends. but now I have to give the unpacked version that is too big. is there any way to solve these problems?

Only by packing everything to pak file.

Is there any tool for packing the files?

Maybe reimport option for this script will work fine http://aluigi.org/bms/unreal_tournament_4.bms

There are some tutorials about that. For example https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xZONf5fXEOg

It is also good idea to read quickbms readme http://aluigi.altervista.org/papers/quickbms.txt
In section 3 you have information about reimporting.

i found a way to reading my edited localization file outside the .pak file.
I paste just my language file in the gamedirectory/HellbladeGame/Content/Localization/Game/xentax
then i went to Engine.ini in drive C and wrote this:

Code: Select all

[Internationalization]
Culture=xentax

now the game is reading my texts without any problem except the font. i want to load my own font but i dont know what to write in Engine.ini or sth like this to load my new font that I want to load exactly like i did for texts.

I extracted the pak file now I want to import it but I dont know what to do now:

Code: Select all

- REIMPORT mode enabled!
  - remember to select the SAME script, file and folder you selected during
    the previous extraction
  - it's highly suggested to leave only the edited files in the folder, it's
    faster and less prone to errors with compressed files

- open input file H:\Games\Hellblade Senuas Sacrifice\HellbladeGame\Content\Paks\HellbladeGame-WindowsNoEditor.pak

- the file is bigger than 4 gigabytes so it's NOT supported by quickbms.exe,
  I suggest you to answer 'n' to the following question and using
  quickbms_4gb_files.exe that doesn't have such limitation.
  are you sure you want to continue anyway (y/N)?
  y
- open script C:\Users\TRACE\Desktop\unreal_tournament_4.bms
- set output folder E:\New folder

  offset   filesize   filename

- please insert the content for the variable KEY:

As you can see, there is message "please insert the content for the variable KEY:"
You have 13 keys implemented inside this script, so if you are lucky one of them should be the right one. Just type the number of the key, for example "5".

tnx. Actually the problem was that the importer was working with under 4g version of the quickbms. I deleted that file and renamed the more than 4g version to formal name of under 4g version. and tried again. everything was ok and worked. tnx for your helps my friends.
