World properties are lost when packaging the game

[jgg]

Hi there!

I have a problem with my World Properties configuration. I've set some stuff on it (Blur, DOF, etc.) and it works when playing the game in the editor. However, when I build the distribuition package with Unreal Frontend this configuration is lost as I install and play the installed game.

What do I need to do to keep my configuration on the packaged game?

Thanks!

Did anyone experience the same issue? Any idea?

I may be having a similar issue in which gametype isn't retained when packaged.

Try setting your game type in your DefaultEngine.ini file:

[Engine.ScriptPackages]
+NonNativePackages=UTGame
+NonNativePackages=UTGameContent
+NonNativePackages=YourGameType

[geodav]

you need to set the properties in the default ini files or in the base ini files

might be an idea to create a copy of them before you do any changes

Ok but... what properties and in what files? Where can I find any info regarding the required configuration?

[geodav]

ok try this, its all covered in my UDK Basics videos

defaultengine.ini

[UnrealEd.EditorEngine]
+EditPackages=UTGame
+EditPackages=UTGameContent
+EditPackages=UT40k

defaultgame.ini

[Engine.GameInfo]
DefaultGame=UT40k.UT40kDeathmatch
DefaultServerGame=UT40k.UT40kDeathmatch
PlayerControllerClassName=UT40k.UT40kPlayerController
GameDifficulty=+1.0
MaxPlayers=32
DefaultGameType="UT40k.UT40kDeathmatch";
+DefaultMapPrefixes=(Prefix="UT40kDM",bUsesCommonPackage=FALSE,GameType="UT40k.UT40kDeathmatch")
+DefaultMapPrefixes=(Prefix="UT40kTDM",bUsesCommonPackage=FALSE,GameType="UT40k.UT40kTeamGame")
+DefaultMapPrefixes=(Prefix="UT40kWF",bUsesCommonPackage=FALSE,GameType="UT40k.UT40KWarfare")

you can also have a look through DefaultSystemSettings.ini which is new to udk build 07/2012
