Quick Tip: Embed Your PCK File in Your Game!

I noticed a lot of the exe files I download have a pck file included in the zip. Quick tip: you can embed it within the exe file itself so it won't be a separate file. When exporting a file, there's an "Embed pck" option there that you just have to check :)

And ALWAYS ship a "Release-Build"! The Debug-Build runs much much slower, and everyone can see the errors and warnings.

(It's a checkbox while exporting)

Is this option visible for exporting to Windows? I wasn't able to find the option to enable.

The embeded pck option is here:


And the release option is after you click "Export Project" here:

This option doesn't work for me - all it does is only export the EXE without the PCK, but it will still complain about the lack of the PCK file. Anyone knows what's the deal with that?

did you ever find a fix for this?
