hey i have a problem whenever I create a new project(after VS has been compiled successfully from source) seems like the new project isn't already compiled once its created and when i try to build the project via VS it starts compiling part of unreal engine as well weirdly .. how can i overcome this issue as I am definitely sure its only supposed to compile the newly created project itself..
So many plugins seem to be incompatible with the source build version of UE. Would I have to always place the plugin and rebuild the engine time and time again? It literally took me half the day just to build the engine. Would their be a faster method to get any new plugin I find to be compatible with the source build?
I did just as you said on this video all but one thing and it makes not since I made a project and it also included all the program files etc from the egine like datasmith etc I close the project out and try to reopen it, I says project built with another engine etc try to rebuild ? whats up with that
hy, i have UE 4.27.2 in my PC from source build, can i add another version without downloading All source again ? becouse one version needs 200Gb storage :(

Appreciate the video, thanks. I do have a question, how do you go about if you want to build multiple branches? For example I would like to build both the "5.0" and "UE5-main" (which is 5.1 currently), do i need to have 2 different folders?
Yeah, you will need another copy of the repo in another directory. I do this too, I cloned it 3 times: one for latest UE4, one for UE5-EA2, and one for UE5-main. You can speed up the cloning process by doing your second and third clone locally from the first clone you made from github. For example: "git clone UnrealEngine UE5Main". It is possible to have only one copy of the repo and switch branches/tags every time you want to switch versions, but then you would need to rebuild changes between every checkout. Given the long compile times, this isn't a very good solution though. This is useful when changes between branches you are testing are minimal and only a couple modules would need to be recompiled.
@@AbhinavChemikala The ue5-main branch is the latest, with commits going in almost daily. It is going to be very different (and at times less stable) than the 5.0.0-early-access-2 tag.
@@LivelyGeekGames oh thanks for the information.Do you know which one has support to upgrade 4.27.2 project to 5? Because using ue 5 early access from launcher is getting errors saying the maps are created in newer version of the unreal and cannot be open
@@AbhinavChemikala UE5-EA2 can only upgrade 4.26 projects according to this: docs.unrealengine.com/5.0/en-US/MigrationGuide/ This makes sense because 4.27 wasn't out yet when EA2 was released. I would assume 4.27 projects will be able to import into the official 5.0 release though when it's out.

Hi I've installed and built ue5 from source and now I want to install and build ue4.27.2 , now the build operation is it repeated and rebuild?(It have been took 14 hours for me)
If you want to build another version, you'll want to clone another copy to a separate directory, and then checkout the 4.27.2 tag you want to build. You don't want to do this in the same cloned repo as UE5 since the source files will differ and you would need to rebuild every time you checkout a different version. I keep three clones of the repo: one for UE4, one for UE5EA2, and one for UE5-main.
It looks like VaRest is just a regular plugin, so you after you compile UE5 you can download that into a plugin directory (either it's own or in your project) and compile it. You might need to setup some plugin and include paths depending on where you put it.
It sounds like you're running out of memory. How much RAM do you have in your computer? The best option would be to add more RAM if possible. The other option would be to increase the page file size. This will use more of your hard drive space as memory (which is slower) as you run out of RAM.

What if you've already installed UE5 normally, and want to now have the benefits of being able to build your projects from visual studio? It always seems like anything I do, if I try to run the .uproject file, it always fails and then refuses to let me open it in UE5 anymore, stating it's now from a different version.
You can follow this tutorial, then open your non source project and add a c++ component. That will transfer the project to C++ and then you can open the solution file in VS or Ryder and compile. If you want to switch versions on a project you can right click the uproject file and click "switch engine version" and switch it to your source build.
I made this before VS2022 came out. It's pretty much the same process though, you just need to update a few .NET version dependencies. I just built the 5.0.0-preview-1 tag that was released today with VS2022 and it worked just fine.
