Hi,

Unfortunately, this was previously omitted from the changelog:
There is a new item that needs to be installed with Visual Studio. In the Individual Components tab, please select MSVC v143 - VS 2022 C++ x64/x86 build tools (v14.38-17.8).

More on it here: https://aximmetry.com/learn/virtual-production-workflow/preparation-of-the-production-environment-phase-i/starting-with-aximmetry/how-to-install-aximmetry/#aximmetry-de

Please let us know if installing it resolves your cooking error.

I added these components and the same problem. Should I reinstall Unreal?

Hi,

Are you sure you installed exactly MSVC v143 - VS 2022 C++ x64/x86 build tools (v14.38-17.8)?
If so, it should no longer write this in the log:

Instead, it should display the following log entry: "UATHelper: Cooking (Windows): Using Visual Studio 2022 14.38.33139 toolchain...."

Warmest regards,

Yes, I am sure. I reinstalled Unreal and the same problem.

Reinstalling Unreal won’t help. You just need to add the Visual Studio components as directed. Once you’ve done that you should probably restart your computer and try again.

Also verify that you’ve selected the correct Visual Studio version for compiling in the UE5 project settings. 

TwentyStudios

Yes, I added Visual Studio components  and updat .

By the way, did the update work correctly for you?

Check your project settings so that it’s using the correct compiler version. Delete any intermediate files for the UE5 project and cook again. 

Hi Huseen,

We managed to recreate the issue.

To fix it, you need to cook the project in Debug:

Warmest regards,

Hi,

Note that this issue is also present in the normal Unreal if you package the project there with similar settings.

Warmest regards,

We had to redo some Scenario projects, Even with all the Orientations and the Debugged Cooking, not the Kitchen, Returning the Project to the Previous Kitchen There is usually a Bug When interacting with the new unreal, we installed and reinstalled the Two versions individually

the 2024.2 and 2024.3 beta

some projects from the base are baked but existing projects are not, there is a bug there

Valew and Thank you.

Hi,

The actual problem lies within the Storm Sync plugin for Motion Design. If you disable this plugin, you'll be able to cook without using the Debug option:

Note that Storm Sync is a plugin that allows multiple team members to edit a single project, ensuring everyone remains synchronized with asset sharing and management.

Regarding other issues with the new Unreal version, it is common for certain features to become incompatible following major software updates, given the complexity of Unreal.

Additionally, if your projects were cooked with a previous version of Unreal Editor for Aximmetry, you will need to recook them.

Warmest regards,

@Eifert: Storm Sync was one of the things I was looking forward to the most. I hope this incompatibility will be addressed in the final release? 

I have also issue with cooking in BETA 3.0. Same project in 2.0 has no issues. I have installed all packages in Visual Studio, including the individual one.

I see that my error is little different than previous. I did not enable any extra plugins in new version before trying to cook content.

Hi Sindri,

You're experiencing a similar issue.
You can too cook with the Debug option:

Alternatively, you can cook using the normal option if you disable the Virtual Scouting plugin:

Note that the Virtual Scouting plugin is enabled by default only in Film template projects.

Warmest regards,

Hi TwentyStudios,

I wouldn't call it an incompatibility. You can still use Storm Sync and cook with the Debug option. After finishing the development of your scene and before going into production, you could disable Storm Sync and cook without the Debug option.

It is likely that Storm Sync advises against shipping your game or scene with their plugin enabled. This might be why they didn't design their plugin to handle situations where it is included in a cooking process optimized for release (cooking without Debug).

Warmest regards,

Hi, Eifert. Thank you for fast response.

Still have some issues, tried both ways got the same errors, I guess this is something different. I tried deleting old AximCam from scene and add it again, still the same issue.

Just remembered that I accidentally installed Aximmetry Studio DE first. Then i just reinstalled composer to Broadcast DE. Could this cause issue? Should I also reinstall Unreal from Broadcast DE installation?

Edited: Will add installed Visual Studio Packages. Just reinstalled all Aximmetry UE to be sure. Still same issue.

Hi,

The error logs you're seeing are not related to the Aximmetry software itself; they originate from a problem in your Unreal project. Specifically, there is an issue with the Aximmetry Camera blueprint in your project. It seems that you copied the Aximmetry Camera blueprint into the "Copy_Spare" folder, which likely caused the problem.

To resolve this issue, delete the Aximmetry-related folders found under the "Copy_Spare" folder. Then, add the Aximmetry Camera again to your level(s):

If Unreal Engine displays errors related to references when you attempt to delete the folder, you'll need to delete these folders directly from Windows Explorer and then add the Aximmetry Camera again.

When you add the Aximmetry Camera, it copies a set of assets, including the Camera's blueprint, into your project. These assets are then added to your open level. Each time this addition occurs, the mechanism checks for previously added camera assets in the Content folder and deletes them. However, since you copied the Camera blueprint into a subfolder, the mechanism failed to detect it. This probably ended up causing reference errors due to the presence of multiple blueprints with the same name or reference to non-existent blueprints or folders.

On the other hand, you should also install MSVC v143 - VS 2022 C++ x64/x86 build tools (v14.38-17.8) in the Visual Studio Installer's Individual Components:

This component is sometimes needed by the new Unreal 5.4.

Deleted Aximmetry related folder from "Copy Share", and now I can cook with debug.

Thank you Eifert!

Hi TV Grande,

Your project has settings that are not allowed with Unreal Engine version 5.4. Check the Source\PAD_UEP_GAMESHOW.Target.cs file in your C++ project.  The issue is likely caused by the DefaultBuildSettings or WindowsPlatform.bStrictConformanceMode settings in that target.cs file.
One potential solution is to set DefaultBuildSettings = BuildSettingsVersion.V5 in that file. This has been suggested as a common fix for similar errors on the Unreal forums.

Warmest regards,

Hi,

The non-redistributable module errors associated with the Storm Sync plugin for Motion Design and the Virtual Scouting plugin have been addressed in the non-beta version of Aximmetry 2024.3.0, which was released today. These errors should no longer occur when using Cook Content without Debug.

Warmest regards,
