I had packaged my game several times before without a hitch when suddenly, for seemingly no reason, it began to fail. It is giving me the infamous automation error along with another error which reads as follows:
MainFrameActions: Packaging (Android (ETC1)): Program.Main: ERROR: ERROR: cmd.exe failed with args /c "C:/NVPACK/apache-ant-1.8.2/bin/ant.bat" debug
Here is the end of my log (where it fails):

My project was made 100% in blueprints and as you can see I am trying to package for android etc1. I have tried to package in 4.8.1 and 4.7.6 and receive the same error message in both cases. All my sdk’s are installed properly and up to date. Packaging works fine in an empty project so I believe it may be something specific to this one. I have tried everything and any help would be greatly appreciated!
