Importing pak files?

[anonymous_user_d4efcd70]

I have two projects built on the same version of the engine. I don’t need to recompile either project to open them in the engine. However, making a pak file of one is not recognized in the other project. I can’t see the pak files in the import option for pak files, and dropping the pack file in the content browser just gives:

error: failed to import unknown extension type pak

How do I import these?

How am I supposed to import a plugin and have it set itself up? Doesn’t unreal have a system for importing asset packs, like Unity? Merging directly breaks stuff on occasion.
