Reference documentation for every OPAL feature.
Categories:

Once you’ve followed Getting Started, this is where to dig into the details. Each page covers one feature area — what it does, how it’s configured, and the edge cases worth knowing.

In this section

  • Engines — Install, remove, and switch between O3DE engine versions. Installer builds and source builds.
  • Projects — Create, import, build, and launch projects. Engine pinning and per-project overrides.
  • Gems — Browse configured repositories, enable gems per project, and manage custom gem sources.
  • Queues — How OPAL schedules downloads, builds, and long-running tasks. Pausing, cancelling, and priorities.
  • Settings — Workspace paths, default engine, build preferences, update channel, and telemetry.
