Thanks, I only had one .pak file to reference and when I tried to extract/unzip the file I was presented with the following: "pakchunk0-WindowsNoEditor.pak is a .PAK file. It is an archive much like a Zip or RAR file.
.PAK files are commonly used to store data to be loaded by game engines like Quake, Hexen, Crysis and so on.The data may include graphics, objects, textures, sounds, and other game data.
.PAK files are primarily used by video games but may also be used by other applications such as the Google Chrome, Simutrans and so on. Therefore, you may have to open your .PAK file with the corresponding program.The contents of a .PAK file may be compressed or uncompressed, but they're usually compressed using ZLib compression.If you want to decompress it, please click the "Extract Anyway" button."
I have not had success in trying to extract the file contents but I will continue working with the files. Thanks for the feedback.
You are right , .pak files have commun use . In our case Unreal Engine does package the game files in .pak files.
Please follow these :
1- Go to the main page and at the downside, there is demo package. Please download that . it is around 2 gb file and contains the basic files of the game.
2- Then copy and paste you "mod" pak file into the content folder.
After that, you may see the folder is something like this . The names might be different but you will have 2 pak files. Run the game .
Dont try to open pak files. just copy and paste if you will have issues please let me know.
Thank you
