Editing PK3 (section)

=== Automated building using PK3Make ===
[https://github.com/liquidunderground/pk3make PK3Make] is a specialty tool developed for building complex PK3 projects, such as Weissblatt. It can automatically build complex PK3 files with byte-for-byte determinism using a single command:
 user@devdir$ pk3make

==== Writing PK3Makefiles ====
PK3Make's build behavior is determined by a configuration file called a <code>PK3Makefile</code>. The exact syntax and options for writing PK3Makefiles may vary by version, but in general PK3Make works in three steps:
 Source files --[build]--> Engine-friendly build files --[pack]--> Finished PK3 file
During these steps, PK3Make will attempt to find files within the source/build files and mirror the required file tree structure in the following build step.

For the sake of safe backups, you should try to keep your project's assets as well as it's PK3Makefile under version control, for example using [https://git-scm.com/ Git].
