Hi Everyone,
like the title said when I was installing the compiled plugin in Unreal for Aximmetry, it is prompted to install visual studio( red lines in the snapshot below), but since the plugin had been compiled, I want to check that if installing the visual studio is mandatory or I have missed something to install the compiled plugin?
Thanks
David
Thanks, TwentyStudios
So it's mandatory to install Visual Studio 2019 and recompile for the Aximmetry UE4 Editor.
Can I expect that if recompiling the plugin in our office then I can copy it to another machine(inside the customer's studio) without needing to install Visual Studio to recompile again for the Aximmetry UE4 Editor?
Yes, Visual Studio is a prerequisite for compiling plug-ins, so you need that to compile the plug-ins for Aximmetry UE4.
You shouldn’t have to compile the plug-in for all computers separately, so copying it will work. There might be instances where the plug-in has other dependencies, so make sure to copy those as well.
Plug-ins need to be compiled specifically for the Aximmetry UE4 Editor. It doesn’t work if they’re compiled for standard UE4.
