2 questions about the Total Conversion support

Just wanna know before I start modding:

  1. If I directly edit a file, and then a new update overwrites these files, are the modded ones gone?

  2. When editing files, is there a backup system so I don’t lose the vanilla files when overwriting?

Create children blueprints off the originals, make the desired changes, and put them in your mod folder. Then just manually back up the folder regularly would be my suggestion.

  1. Changed files are saved in "\Epic Games\Launcher\Backup"
  2. No
