I tried being in different folders when using UnrealPak.exe but it didn’t have any effect on the pakfile contents and their paths 
Do you remember how you would make pakfiles when you had this working?
haha my memory is pretty bad sorry, fortunately I’d made a batch file which contains:
unrealpak d:\Footprints.pak d:\Footprints.umap d:\Engage*.* d:\FootprintMeshes*.*
If that’s any help… It looks like I put everything in the root of D: to solve it…
looks like the paste lost some of the formatting:
unrealpak d:\Footprints.pak d:\Footprints.umap d:\Engage*.* d:\FootprintMeshes*.*
I tried building my pak using the same method and its giving me this:
LogTemp: Warning: D:\PAKS\test3.pak loaded and mounted, listing...
LogTemp: Warning: File: /Game/maptest.umap
LogTemp: Warning: File: /Game/test.uasset
LogPackageName: SearchForPackageOnDisk took 0.167s, but failed to resolve maptest.umap.
LogPackageName: SearchForPackageOnDisk took 0.166s, but failed to resolve maptest.umap.
Do you know if those are cooked assets or just raw from the content folder of the project?
The only clue I’ve found so far is that I’ve named some archives of the dynamic maps as “-WindowsNoEditor” which makes me think I’m using cooked assets built for shipping - I’ve got some vague recollection that shipping is important…
Yeah I tried with cooked and uncooked assets and got the same thing. gahhhhhhhh this is killing me lol
Did you ever get it to a spot where you could load the map but not the other assets? I have some old code I tried which can load the map but that’s the only thing that loads, any materials or custom meshes don’t get loaded.
Yeah I think I did have that problem at one point too. When you created the map and asset did you put both in the root of /Game/? Any assets referenced by the map still need to follow their relative path…
Yeah, they are both in D:\UE4\4.17\PakSource\Content
In order to get the map to load, I have to mount the pakfile to FPaths::EngineContentDir() instead of to Game. At which point I get this error after the map loads: LoadErrors: Error: /Engine/maptest : Can't find file for asset. /Game/test. test is the name of my material i applied to some blocks
I think I played with the engine content folder for a while but had success using the game folder - it’s possible that the /Game/ folder is not being included in a search order - you may need to add it somewhere, but I’m afraid I can’t remember where…
IT could have something to do with the AssetRegistry file?
The AssetRegistry is Editor only so I wouldn’t think so. What does the “Pack List” look like now when it logs the contents of the pack?
Which pack list do you mean? In the game when I log it using PakPlatform->IterateDirectoryRecursively() it prints this:
LogTemp: Warning: File: /Game/maptest.umap
LogTemp: Warning: File: /Game/test.uasset
And when I list out the pakfile in the command line using UnrealPak.exe D:\PAKS\test.pak -List it prints this:
LogPakFile: Display: Mount point D:/UE4/4.17/PakSource/Content/

So I have just packaged my files for WindowsNoEditor and it looks very similar to yours and it still says it can’t resolve maptest.umap. The Mount point is the same and it has all of the Engine content as well. Where yours gets to EngageFootprints/Content/... is there a map in there too? if so is it a .umap or just a .exp and .ubulk.
When mine stops listing the engine content and starts listing the PakSource content it looks like this:

Interesting! Yeah I have a umap in there and no uexp or ubulk files…

Do you know what version of the editor you were using? It looks like .uexp and .ubulk were added sometime around 4.15 to reduce the filesize of .umap so this is probably a non issue but still neat to see lol
