Steve's UE4 Scripts

Summary

These scripts are to help with various tasks in Unreal Engine 4. They're written on the basis of using Git / Git LFS rather than Perforce (many of UE4's own automation tools assume P4, which can be inconvenient).

• Setting up a project for Git / Git-LFS: including LFS locking
• Packaging a Game: building, cooking, archiving
• Releasing a Game: e.g. uploading to Itch, Steam
• Rebuilding Lightmaps: build lighting on the command line easily (supporting git-lfs locking, no P4 dependency like RunUAT)
• Getting Latest for Artists: pulls from git and builds so C++ changes are automatically updated
• Cleaning Up: Deleting unneeded Hot Reload DLLs etc

Prerequisites

• Powershell Core 7+
  • Almost everything is compatible with Win10 built-in PS 5.1 but 7 is better, and platform independent
• PsIni module installed (library for reading INI files easily)
  • Run Install-Module PsIni in a Powershell console
• Itch's butler tool if you wish to release to Itch.io
• The Steamworks SDK if you wish to release on Steam
