Godot UWP Packaging Fix Script

This repository contains a batch script designed to fix packaging issues with Godot UWP projects. By placing the script in the same directory as your Godot UWP export (export.appx), it automates the process of extracting, modifying, and repackaging the appx file.

Usage

1. Pre-requisites:

   • Ensure that 7-Zip is installed on your system.
   • Have Visual Studio 2019 installed with the necessary tools, including makeappx command.

2. Setup:

   • Place the unpack_and_repack.bat script in the same directory as your export.appx file generated from Godot UWP export.

3. Execution:

   • Double-click unpack_and_repack.bat to execute the script.
   • The script will automatically:
     • Extract export.appx using 7-Zip.
     • Delete [Content_Types].xml and AppxBlockMap.xml which may cause packaging issues.
     • Utilize the Developer Command Prompt for Visual Studio 2019 to run makeappx pack to create a fixed my_game.appx.

4. Outcome:

   • After execution, you should find my_game.appx in the same directory as export.appx, ready for deployment or further testing.

Notes

• This script assumes a standard setup with paths to 7-Zip and Visual Studio tools configured as specified. Modify the paths (sevenZipPath, path to VsDevCmd.bat) in the script if your setup differs.
• Keep the Developer Command Prompt for Visual Studio open during script execution to ensure environment variables are correctly set.
