When I exited out of the Editor, a pop up appeared and it asked "Package0 has changed. Would you like save changes?"

So I freaked out, b/c I had no idea what it was and I wanted my map to load the next time safely so I clicked "yes."

After I clicked "yes" I saved it as a different name. I used jumbles of letters to set it apart from the packages that came with the program and games.

After that, a another popped up. This time it said "Package1"

Long story short, I wound up save 31 packages with different jumbles of lettering so I would save over the "original packages."

Now my questions are:

  1. What are these so-called packages and why is the Editor telling me they have changed?
  2. Was saving them all with a different name safe assumption on my part since I didn't know what to do until I could voice my question on the forum?
  3. What should I do now with the packages, where do I find them, and what should I do in the future?
Thanks,
Jay

i think it saves anything you resized, changed from stat mesh packages/textures/ etc, into that package...
do you now have to redownload the original packages when you connect to a server?
