V1.3.3 __top__ — Patch Builder

Execute the build command through the CLI interface. Pass the manifest file as the primary argument: patch-builder build --config patch_config.yaml Use code with caution.

Even with a user‑friendly tool, modding can present challenges. Based on community feedback and documentation, here are some issues to watch out for:

Before tools like Patch Builder existed, modding game updates on PS4 was a far more complicated process. Modders had to manually extract files from PKG packages using command-line tools, track down the correct directories, and then use separate repackaging utilities. It was time-consuming, and any small mistake could mean starting over from scratch.

If you are running builds on specialized CI runners with high core counts, you can manually override block allocations. Decreasing block sizes creates a more precise delta file but demands more processing overhead: patch builder v1.3.3

As with any modding tool, respect the intellectual property rights of game developers and use the software responsibly. Happy modding!

patch-builder --config ./build.yaml --output ./dist/ --verbose

Before running the comparison, configure the exclusion filters. You should exclude user-generated data, temporary log files, local configuration files ( .config , .ini ), or local databases that should not be overwritten on the end-user's machine. Phase 3: Building and Compilation Execute the build command through the CLI interface

Compared to legacy versions (v1.2.x), the 1.3.3 release focuses on performance optimization and security hardening:

Operational recommendations

Building a modded update package with Patch Builder v1.3.3 involves a distinct asset merging structure. Before starting, ensure your host computer has the target patch files ready (such as resolution or framerate fixes from community developers like @illusion0002). 1.
