PSUnreal Programming

The overall process begins by installing Unreal Engine and building from source, then follows through the PSUnreal setup page.

Install Unreal Engine from sources on windows

A reasonably simple guide: http://www.hybridsyntax.com/en/blog/building-unreal-engine-4-on-windows.html

High level steps:

• Step 1: Register an account at UnrealEngine and GitHub
• Step 2: Add your GitHub username to in your UnrealEngine profile under your dashboard
• Step 3: Download the source code from UE4 Repo
  • list remote branches with: git ls-remote https://github.com/EpicGames/UnrealEngine.git
  • get source code with: git clone -b 4.18.3-release https://github.com/EpicGames/UnrealEngine.git
  • this will create a "Unreal Engine" directory as child of the dir where you run the command
• Step 4: Install Visual Studio 2015
• Step 5: Run Setup.bat to download binary files
• Step 6: Run GenerateProjectFiles.bat to make project files
  • if it complains about windows 8.1 sdk, just install it from here
• Step 7: Building Unreal Engine 4 with Development Editor configuration and Win64 Platform
• Step 8: Run the UE4Editor.exe from Engine\Binaries\Win64\ subdirectory

Update Unreal Engine and Git commands

If you messed up your repository, try: git reset --hard

If you miss files try : git checkout .

To update to a newer UE version:

• git fetch
• git reset --hard (to discard local changes in case you have)
• git tag --list (to list all available new tags)
• git checkout 4.18.3-release
• launch Setup.bat to update dependencies
• launch GenerateProjectFiles.bat
• Clean the UE4 project from VS
• Rebuild
