Hi,

This is a project for my final year university project which is due on Friday this week so any help would be greatly appreciated!
I need help with this one error I keep getting when attempting to package (shipping) my game. I read around and learned it might have something to do with needing to migrate the KiteDemo assets I added to the project (Could be completely wrong). I checked my contents folder and the assets are there so I don’t think this is the problem.

Here are the last few lines of the output log that show the error summary in paste bin:

Hey Ahmed,

After looking over the amount of you did provide, this is where I see the issue:

MainFrameActions: Packaging (Windows (32-bit)): UE4Editor-Cmd: [2015.12.08-13.34.24:373][  0]LogInit:Display: LogObj:Error: LoadConfig (/Script/UnrealEd.Default__ProjectPackagingSettings): import failed for StagingDirectory in: (Path=

You may need to check what you have set for the staging directory. You can find that option in the editor by going to Edit > Project Settings > Packaging.

Please provide the full as a .txt file if you happen to make changes and run into another error.

Looking forward to hearing back from you, thanks!

Thank you for the reply .

I’m no expert so I was wondering what a ‘Staging Directory’ is and what I should change within it? My project is at University so I will check tomorrow and get back to you, thanks.

Hi,

So changing the staging directory worked, it built successfully but now I can’t open the exe. It says failed to open descriptor file.

I tried everything suggested in this forum post:

Failed to open descriptor file error - Programming & Scripting - Epic Developer Community Forums but nothing worked.

I tried changing the name of the file in the root as well as trying to open the file from the root folder which was

( \\aaabdul3\SOIProfile\Desktop\Deserted 4.9\WindowsNoEditor\Engine\Binaries\Win64 )

I also tried checking the for distribution check box in the packaging settings you told me about earlier, it didn’t work.

Here is my log output. [link text][1]

I’m really stuck and only have today and tomorrow to fix this before I need to hand in this project!!

The most simple of things fixed this!!!

All I did was copy the WindowsNoEditor files onto my portable hard and opened the exe. from there and it worked!!

Thank you for your help, ! You can mark this as resolved.
