Swarm was set to not enable standalone mode, which was forcing it to try to find other computers on my network (which there are none of)

#

📎 unknown.png

#

and I don't think it properly assigns my computer as a swarm worker because my DNS address is changed from default

#

Is there a place I can post this info for people to find in the future? I couldn't find anything online and I just figured it all out through trial and error

is Canvas included into packaging process ? After package I got all c++/blueprint classess included, and their logic is executed, but I can't see any DrawTexture/DrawLine that has been executed in DrawHUD

I send this again, because i din't find a solution until now... It says allways that Universal CRT is not installed

fierce pebble Nov 29, 2018, 4:26 PM

#

have you googled what that is yet?

#

yee you will not find anything

#

heres solution

#

install windows 10 sdk with visual studio installer

nocturne holly Nov 29, 2018, 4:37 PM

#

there are different windows 10 SDKs, i installed many of them and tried nearly everything

fierce pebble Nov 29, 2018, 4:39 PM

#

if that is installed

#

then you might miss CRT main module

#

it usually comes directly with vs17

#

you should not have an old version

#

dont worry this is an easy error

#

4.21 just needs the sdk

#

so it gives this error

nocturne holly Nov 29, 2018, 4:41 PM

#

I forgot to say that i can package a blank project. But in my project where it fails the Advanced Session Plugin is enabled.

#

When i enable the Advanced Seiion Plugin in my blank project, i get the same fail

fierce pebble Nov 29, 2018, 4:42 PM

#

no that is totally normal my friend

#

as soon as you good extra code in it breaks

#

i had the exact same

nocturne holly Nov 29, 2018, 4:45 PM

#

so can i solve it with the right settings in visual studio 17?

fierce pebble Nov 29, 2018, 4:46 PM

#

probably

#

but all about 4,21 is already in the chat

#

you really dont have to worry

#

you are on the right track

#

i cant say how different your vs install is ho

#

my fix took 3 hours

#

Do you have the Advanced session plugin in 4.21?

fierce pebble Nov 29, 2018, 4:56 PM

#

no

I don't know what i could do now :/

Hey guys, have any of you had your packaging process get stuck at: Cooked packages #### Packages Remain #### Total ####?

There are no errors. The packaging process just stays at that line and doesn't continue.

#

so I'm working on a heavily UI-based game

#

and I'm packaging it just to test a few things.

#

and.... Left-clicking buttons doesn't work.

#

I can't get past the main menu.

#

I feel like it's a quirk with the editor because everything works fine in PIE

#

but as soon as I go into a packaged build, can't click things

open rapids Dec 3, 2018, 3:14 AM

#

I'm really not sure what's going on

#

what's strange is that, I can see the UI at least trying to respond to a click

#

like, the button will press for a single frame

#

Also, worth noting that I'm using a 3D widget component.

#

That's how I'm achieving things like bloom.

Does anyone know how to tell a device to use a specific device profile?
I've created the device profile but I'm unsure how to actually tell a device to use it >.<

solar wharf Dec 6, 2018, 3:33 AM

#

@vague hare Not sure how to force it to use any specific profile, maybe it could be done through UserSettings. But the way I would handle this without forcing it to some device profile is by looking at the log from the device, see what device profile it uses on load. So if you had an iPhoneX, it would load that profile, etc. It may be possible the profile doesn't exist, so it defaults to Android or iOS, whatever it's base is. You could add a new profile for what name it says it is, within the device profile manager. Either way, go back in the Device Profile Manager, and make the necessary changes to whatever profile you discover it uses.

I'm not sure if this is the right place for this, but I have an Xbox one x in developer mode, I have the custom UWP supported engine built, and I packaged the vehicle demo. I managed to get a network share location recognized and when I start the game I can see the cpu of the Xbox ramp up to 100% but the game never launches due to it "taking to long to launch"

#

so I'm wondering two things. How can I manually package the game to test and in the event the same thing happens on that approach... what do I do now...

#

I have the settings all on medium and this is just the example content. i don't know why something like this wouldn't be able to run if it's all recognized

#

so yeah, def need to find out how to packaged this into a file I can manually drop into the xbox, I have found where to drop it, but it's looking for a package not a folder

@paper cipher the xbox will fail to launch if it takes too long (i think its like 20 or 30 seconds?)

Make a debug pc build and run a memory test and clean up references. you are probably loading all of your games assets on launch unintentionally

Hey guys,
I built an application with VR and non-VR mode which works as expected when using the VR preview mode. In the packaged version I get a side by side video output when starting in the non-VR mode when the headset isn't connected and works correctly when the headset is connected.
The IsHeadMountDisplayConnected() and IsHeadMountDisplayEnabled() both work fine in the editor/VR preview but always returns true in the packaged version.
Using UE 4.18 and HTC Vive. Any suggestion on how to solve this issue ??
Edit : Resolved ! Disable the SimpleHMD plugin before packaging.

Hey guys, was anybody able to remote compile ios build on windows with plugin which contains it's own binaries? Issue is that FMod contains custom in-house dlls (downloaded from their site) in Binaries folder and remote compile is not sending them to Mac. We tried to just copy them into corresponding folder on Mac, however unreal deletes them on compile start because it thinks they can be generated from source. (Manually pasting them right after delete phase of packaging caused build to success, however manual copy paste during every remote build is not really a nice way)

Just make sure you install the build UE4 from source dependencies and that usually adds whatever missing component

Also check if VS 2017 is up to date

Well I got my binary files to include. I had to brute force the manifest builder to include my files. There's probably a better way

dunno if that is packaging related, but since moving to 4.21.1we experience a lot of problems with the engine and our packaged build (using engine source) ...
Some maps have weird performance issues, a weapon skeletal mesh got scaled up like 10x while everything works fine in the editor itself and playing standalone.
Also one map crashes the game like a few seconds after loading it while other work fine; attaching a debugger does not work, it just freezes. Sometimes I get this crash log (the symbols haven't been deleted): https://pastebin.com/CsmVKq3K
Crash context xml: https://pastebin.com/0SV09yU4
Like the other bugs, working perfectly fine when using the standalone PIE session :/
Does anyone have similar problems?

There's the plugin manager window in the editor, so you can always remove unused stuff

replace the two lines at the top of the python file with your data and run it

it will tell you about unused references in your build.cs

Hello, I'm quiet new here but I'm struggling with packaging my project for over 16 hours now and I cannot find any solution even though the error seems so simple

I've already tried everything I could find on the boards and also had a look at general android packaging but nothing seemed to work.

I've also deleted binaries, build and intermediate and rebuilt the project afterwards but still nothing.

Here are the last few lines of the logs (ignore the #, those are just to color the lines red)
If you need any more information, like project settings or more logs, I'll gladly send those too.

(Also, the packaging worked a while ago - just now that I "finished it" it doesn'T work anymore. I also added a new plugin since the last working packaged apk, so maybe that's connected to it (?))

Update:
I tried packaging a third person template for android and even though it took way longer than usual, it was successful.

So I know fore sure it's not an SDK issue (Which I already reinstalled and updated and all that stuff) but rather a project related issue.

The plugin I integrated since the last successful build is a plugin for ad-integration (I use it for admob). I suspect the issue to be there but I really don't know what to do if that's the case (as I integrated the plugin explained in the documentation and I'm only into game dev for about 5-6 months now so I really lack the knowledge here)

Would be great if someone has some helpful ideas on how I can proceed with this or what else I could check.

buoyant plover Dec 28, 2018, 8:32 AM

^ I just removed the plugin from my package folder and deleted every mention of it in my blueprints - packaging worked afterwards

The plugins name is UnrealEngine4-EZ-Mobile-Ads
(not linking it because I don't know if that would be fine with the rules)

crisp wraith Dec 28, 2018, 8:24 PM

#

I think half of that is not used,do i need to delete unused assets or does unreal only build used ones

wispy pumice Dec 29, 2018, 2:15 AM

#

Unreal's cooking process when you package your game will only include assets you use

#

so if you add 5000 textures and use 3, it will only build 3

#

what you can try is removing all the plugins you are not using

#

open the Plugins view and then uncheck everything that isnt relevant

When I package my project on 4.21 i get the Error that Universal CRT is not installed in Visual Studio 2017. I've deleted everything from this project so it looks like a blank project, but i get still the same Package Error. When i make a new, blank project, I can package without any problems. Does anyone know how I can fix this? (Maybe update something in this project, so that it knows the path of this universal c runtime??)

how can you not?

there is a bool for head mounted device and hmd

this is proper

dusk swan Jan 1, 2019, 7:48 PM

So I should just have a command like argument or something on if it should use vr?

#

So Steam can tell it what to do

i dont understand what your issue is

you can simply code a switch in your game to shut of hmd or the other way

what do you want

Mhm check your texture file - also, for which platform are you packaging ?

I also got a new issue with packaging, however, to not spam the chat here with all the logs, here's a link to the awnsers hub page where I asked the question.

The issue comes from ProGuard and only happens since I inserted my keystore file, so maybe some of you know what I got to do.

eager moon Jan 2, 2019, 9:13 AM

#

Hey @haughty depot , you want to check yours TextureSubUV file directory.
Go to your texture and check clear that box:

#

📎 unknown.png

#

Then take the SubUV PNG file to the folder of your game, mannually, don't use import

#

After doing this you use import to find your texture

#

And then put the new right path on that Source File, that should correct your package

#

This texture is inside your material blueprint:

i'm packaging for win64. I'm not sure what changing the import directory for the texture will do to fix it, all textures are currently imported from the same location, but I will give it a shot when i get home this evening

Depends on how you package.

If you let it cook everything, no, it doesn't

you should make use of the reference viewer aswell

#

it compiles you a view for asset dependencies

#

that way you can see folder routes

lost flame Jan 9, 2019, 1:33 PM

#

Im just going over them manually

#

Since i copied it all to the same folder

#

All the unique things got copied over while alot of the functions and textures are duplicates, so they stayed at their original folders, and the references stayed..

#

Anyways OT!

Hey, anyone have any idea why the AssetRegistry isn't finding a lot of my assets in a standalone build? I have a lot of data assets in my game that don't have any hard references but the game looks for them using the Asset Registry and loads them in through that. Those assets only get loaded in when playing in-editor. Because this kind of asset loading is so prevalent in my game, it leads to crashes and bugs in standalone builds because the assets the game is trying to find aren't being packaged.

I've added the folders those assets are in to the list of folders where the cooker should always cook assets (regardless of them being un-referenced), and I CAN see them being cooked in the logs - but the game still doesn't find them. Any reason why?

anyone have a working checklist of what you need to do to build a game for android? I followed the recommended quick start guide that pops up, restarted multiple times after doing everything and it still won't let me package a game for android

open rapids Jan 13, 2019, 2:21 PM

#

This is what I did to export games for android, I'm using C++ however:
1- Install UE4
2- Install Visual Studio 2017 
2.1 - enable Game Development with C++  in Visual Studio installer.
2.2 - enable Unreal Engine Installer in Visual Studio installer.
2.3 - enable Visual Studio Android Support for Unreal Engine in Visual Studio installer.
3- Reset device.
4- Install Nvidia codeworks for android
5- Reset device.
6- Run UE4
7- Make a mobile project.
8- Go to project settings > Android > Accept SDK License
9- Build and done.

#

@sharp jolt

#

your button should look like this after accepting

📎 unknown.png

#

if not, there is a problem with Nvidia code works installation, things like environment variables, try re installing it

#

also try disabling this and see if it works

make sure testing it with a new project, not an existing one.

May be a dumb question, but I've got a PS4 controller I've connect to my laptop through Bluetooth. I've added controller inputs to my project settings, but the engine doesn't seem to be processing the inputs at all.

#

Is there some additional setting I need to click to set this up?

#

I've verified that the controller does work with games I have installed through steam.

hey dude

#

can you check on your plugins?

#

did you installed any plugin?

#

@quick kayak hey dude, what kind of a plugin was this? the name please. :D
Also, why you want to package the plugin, cant you just get the result of it and then delete everything else, even deactivate the plugin (will be better for pack)

#

@sharp jolt Hey dude, how are you packaging these? Because if you package only trough the editor then it gonna have a LOT of missing files

#

even if the game runs in one or another cellphone, if you dont package the way its meant to be done It wont work for the most of them trust me

sharp jolt Jan 17, 2019, 12:18 AM

#

Packaged in the editor. I've made an ASTC and ETC2 version, installed it on about a dozen different phones types, they all work fine.

#

I also packaged it with all files in the apk for now

eager moon Jan 17, 2019, 12:18 AM

@inland shore Im p sure your plugin is causing all these errors

Well crossmr then whats the issue ure havng?
Also, packaging only trough the editor inst the way professionals do bt okay

If there is a better way to package it, you could simply tell me what it is. It's my first time packaging anything for android, so I just used what i knew.

eager moon Jan 17, 2019, 12:22 AM

#

alright my dude

#

yeah there is

#

I'm no expert in packaging for phones tho

#

but the editor version for packs are really, well, I dont know, they just make some files for the real automationtool make the service

#

but they dont package the GAME you know

#

they package files so you can run the log

#

the log is what you want

#

a log from the project launcher

#

within this log from the project launcher is where you are able to real cook the game and make it to the Steam or whatever

#

I will send you a link but it works for me in my Pc games

sharp jolt Jan 17, 2019, 12:25 AM

ok

eager moon Jan 17, 2019, 12:26 AM

you should read a lot of packaging, its a wide area and not easy
It could be even harder than make the game

it means youre building the game for mobile or a console

you'd need the runtimes and/or toolchain for them, e.g. parts of the android sdk for android, or the XDK (or whatever its called now) for xbox

if you didnt mean to package your game for mobile, check the settings

near stream Jan 20, 2019, 1:04 AM

I figured it out for anyone who searches this in the future. If you explicitly tell the engine to not include certain folders later on below, I think it then expects you to explicitly state the ones you want to include. I solved this by just removing the ones I explicitly said I want ignore and the above settings worked fine.

@fierce pebble @eager moon funny people.... it was a datasmith issue

fierce pebble Jan 22, 2019, 8:13 AM

#

you are working dirty.

#

you should consider only having used assets in your project really

eager moon Jan 22, 2019, 8:53 AM

#

Yeah, create in another project then migrate only the assets, not the full plugin

eternal flare Jan 22, 2019, 8:58 AM

if datasmith doesn't allow you to work dirty, then it's not made for the real world

#

they should have kept it in some clinical research lab

eager moon Jan 22, 2019, 9:33 AM

even when a plugin is made of Unreal devs it creates problems for packaging, like the Realtime Simulation and Volume Modelling Plugin by Ryan Bruck

#

If you try to package that with your game it just will fail... But so what? You just need to remove the folder.

#

Just use its assets and remove it when packaging for shipping build, its simple as that

eternal flare Jan 22, 2019, 10:19 AM

so messy compared to Unity, and all answers is "yeah we won't fix it, just work around it". it's so lucky for Epic that their results are bloody fantastic 😛

mellow bane Jan 22, 2019, 10:31 AM

#

To be clear, UE4 does support removing unused assets from the build

#

Plugins are plugins - they're unsupported by design unless they ship with the engine.

#

When you start using a plugin you accept responsibility for updating it, too

eternal flare Jan 22, 2019, 10:51 AM

and is still under development

this is just something I hope they fix

So what yo need to do now is go to the editor and go to the window where it says Project Launcher

There you will select advanced settings, and choose "default" - "shipping" - "do not cook"

Hi everyone! Need help on server package. Following this tutorial https://wiki.unrealengine.com/Dedicated_Server_Guide_(Windows_%26_Linux) from @stoic nova . Got stuck on packaging project on Win64. UBT says: "UATHelper: Packaging (Windows (64-bit)): ERROR: No target name was specified on the command-line." Need to say that every step before was made as in tutorial and everything was good before that point. I would appreciate any help.

hi guys

#

any ways to decrease size of an apk?

#

for like 30 40 or maybe 50 mb

which asset did it happen on

hey..I try to package the project for android with project launcher...When I run the first profile, I get huge .obb file, over 1.1GB! There is just the empty map, with no reference to other maps or content, nothing! I've assigned this map to chunk 0. Also, I've 6 chunks with content over 700MB, but after packaging I've only 90mb content

#

Any ideas how to solve this?

Hello All, I'm super new to Unreal, and I'm basically follow the documentation to learn pixel streaming, https://docs.unrealengine.com/en-us/Platforms/PixelStreaming/PixelStreamingIntro I use the latest 4.21 version, and followed all the steps, untill I reached package your project for windows64, I kept getting Pakaging failed, and the errors I get from log is "UBT ERROR", "UnrealBuildTool failed", any idea how to solve this? Thanks!

Any idea why my maps aren't packing? I've included both the levels and the build data in the packaged maps in the project settings, but it's still not including them.

#

folks, is there any way to politely get someone's attention from epic if there's a major bug preventing from releasing/packaging my game? i've already posted in forums and Answers but nobody seems to respond

#

i see some people in this chat asking how to reduce the size of APK, that's where the bug is, there is a file being cooked that costs 32MB alone and it was supposed to be fixed in 4.16 but it still persists in later versions such as 4.18, 4.19 and 4.21 (including blacklist doesnt help)

gritty knoll Jan 29, 2019, 6:28 AM

anyone knows how to use Ue4's HTML5 for Newgrounds?

UE4 HTML 5 and Newgrounds.

Recently I've been experimenting with Unreal Engine 4, I've been thinking about The possibility of making something in it and putting it on Newgrounds. Since UE4 can be used for HTML 5 Development I can't see why It shouldn't be possible to this. ...

#

If you manage to upload ur piece into newgrounds you tell us dude, this thread is a good start.

i'm wondering if there's a way to override DefaultCrypto.ini? I'd like to submit the settings to a semi public source control but keep the keys private, can I just create another ini file (with which name?) and override the 4 keys in there?

mellow bane Jan 30, 2019, 10:56 AM

#

You can have multiple levels of files, including in the Saved folder : https://docs.unrealengine.com/en-US/Programming/Basics/ConfigurationFiles

amber galleon Jan 30, 2019, 10:56 AM

#

literally can't find anything in the docs about that. the only ini files that's got the overrideability described is Base/Engine/Game ini

#

@mellow bane yes, i've seen that, but Crypto isn't Engine, is it?

mellow bane Jan 30, 2019, 10:57 AM

#

[ProjectDirectory]/Saved/Config/[Platform]/[Category].ini should be relevant for you, with category "crypto"

amber galleon Jan 30, 2019, 10:58 AM

#

oh so i can just follow the same procedure for the other types?

#

ok i'm gonna try that, thanks 😃

mellow bane Jan 30, 2019, 10:58 AM

#

Yeah, not sure what the platform codenames are though

#

Probably Win64/Win32/Linux/ etc

#

Like for other files

amber galleon Jan 30, 2019, 11:01 AM

#

oh i just realized the editor actually created an empty saved/config/linux/crypto.ini for me for some reason 😛

@vernal elm If you have any assets that use /Engine content, it will sometimes get that

im not though

i checked

its a source build engine

when i cook it in non source it works fine

Did anyone got this error after packaging and launching the game

austere crypt Jan 31, 2019, 6:18 PM

Hello! I've got a question about graphic settings after packaging, when I packaged my game and after launching it I noticed that the texture quality is lower than in the editor, is there a specific reason for this or how can I adjust this, does someone know or have a tip?

hollow ember Jan 31, 2019, 8:25 PM

#

Quick question. When the game is finished and I decide the pack this game up inside the editor let's just say all actors and things meches demos things I've used to create the game are the only things that get packed up right? So more less I'm saying all the stuff that I didn't even use in the editor for the game. That stuff doesn't get packed up also does it? Or do I have to go through everything and clean this crap up?
I was packing my game up just to do a quick test and it's giving me warnings and errors for items I didn't even put in the game.

Does anyone know how i can locate WHAT BP is having this issue?!

gritty knoll Feb 1, 2019, 6:32 AM

#

hello @hollow ember did you check the Saved/Cooked folder to see what was cooked?

#

anyways, as long as an asset is referenced anywhere in your project, it will be cooked, even if you dont use it

opal cedar Feb 2, 2019, 5:10 PM

#

hi, according the asset audit, in my first chunk ( chunk0 ) should be only patching map and nothing else. After package, there is much more stuff. Does someone the same results why packaging the project? I'm pretty sure I'm not referencing the other stuff packaged in the patching map and the same also tells reference viewer.

📎 unknown.png

#

I used UnrealPak to see, whats inside the pak0, that's how I know what is inside

#

Is unpacking the .pak to folder, delete some folders, and then repack the way how to create packages, if't it's not working for some reason in editor?

primal kettle Feb 4, 2019, 1:01 AM

#

hay can someone tell me what you need to do to get a vive hmd to start with steamvr

#

at the moment the game starts

#

you can see the player camera on the floor

#

but there is nothing in the hmd

#

I have checked the box in project settings start in vr

#

I have enable hmd blueprint node enabled on event beginplay node in the map blueprint

#

and set execute command node to vr.benablestereo true

#

but none of that has done anything to help

limpid socket Feb 4, 2019, 7:00 AM

@primal kettle Do you have the VR plugins you need enabled?

Getting this error when I try to package:

FormatException: Index (zero based) must be greater than or equal to zero and less than the size of the argument list.

Any ideas?

Could it be to do with the steam API?

Any reason you pass the project twice ?

solemn trellis Feb 4, 2019, 3:58 PM

#

No idea why its doing that

#

I've never really dabbled with packaging my project before (aside from another project that I shipped without problems)

mellow bane Feb 4, 2019, 3:59 PM

#

Are you just teying to package from the menu ?

solemn trellis Feb 4, 2019, 3:59 PM

#

yeah, from edit - package x64

mellow bane Feb 4, 2019, 4:00 PM

#

That's weird. It... should work well ? Is it a launcher engine ?

solemn trellis Feb 4, 2019, 4:02 PM

#

A launcher engine?

#

The project is using the steam subsystem, I feel it may be to do with that?

mellow bane Feb 4, 2019, 4:04 PM

#

No, I mean is it a launcher build of the engine, as opposed to custom source build ?

solemn trellis Feb 4, 2019, 4:05 PM

#

Its a launcher build of the engine

#

No custom source code

mellow bane Feb 4, 2019, 4:06 PM

#

That's pretty weird

solemn trellis Feb 4, 2019, 4:06 PM

#

Any idea what it could be related to?

#

I cant find any indication to where the problem may be

mellow bane Feb 4, 2019, 4:07 PM

#

Yeah, same. Maybe try building through the project launcher instead

#

It's more involved but you'll have more options

solemn trellis Feb 4, 2019, 4:07 PM

#

This is my output log, just tells me to look at the txt file

Alright I'll give that a go, thank you for your help!

TFW you spend over a year making a game and it wont package 😉

mellow bane Feb 4, 2019, 4:09 PM

Packaging hurts the first time

solemn trellis Feb 4, 2019, 4:09 PM

#

How do I package through the project launcher?

Once it's set up it usually doesn't break though

If you're into that sort of thing, and not afraid of going into details, I've got a nice Python script to build releases

Whats UAT?

mellow bane Feb 4, 2019, 4:12 PM

#

The end of the script isn't relevant for other projects, and it probably needs lots of reading, but it does generate a valid command line

#

UAT is Unreal Automation Tool

#

Basically the engine high level command line

solemn trellis Feb 4, 2019, 4:12 PM

#

ah okay

mellow bane Feb 4, 2019, 4:13 PM

Ultimately, no one needs the same packaging options, so it's good to just look at everuthing
