[BUG] Package builder doesn't generate layout & manifest files

When changing FolderName to something other than Packages, building the package doesn't generate a layout and manifest file. If pointed at Packages, through, everything builds fine.

That's done through the in-sim UI.

Hi @SWS-AlexVletsas ,

I tested it in SU10 and it works fine

Do you have any error or warning in the console?


Regards,
Boris

No errors or warnings. This was done with SU9.

We tested the build process with the Steam / MS Store version (SU9 and SU10) and everything worked as expected.

Can you try to delete all _PackageInt* and Packages* folders and recompile them?

We suspect you have some errors in a packageInt folder or in a package definitions xml.

Regards,
Boris
