NVIDIA GameWorks Integration

[Robert Gleaden]

i started this project with the default nvidia editor and it failed again

That is because you are using the default Nvidia branch, This will cause the editor to not package. Please use my branch it will fix the package but we are unsure if the hair will actually show up or not, For me it's fine but other people are reporting lots of different results, we are figuring it out!

okay will report back with your branch + project

one question what did you add to the project to make the project packaging work?

edit : BUILD FAILED again....

Absolutely nothing.. I compiled the NVidia one and everything works perfectly on my end.. I recon it's something the All Tech project.. But i can't figure it out.. It's a test to see what builds and what doesn't!

EDIT: If the build fails could you please send me the logs in the project/Saved/Logs folder Upload them onto pastebin or something like that, Then it will give me some idea of what I can do!

Right this isn't an issue, You just haven't built the Game Binaries that all just follow these instructions then you should be alright..

Build the "Development Editor Win64"
Build the "DebugGame Win64"
Rename the "UE4Game-Win64-DebugGame.target.xml" in Engine/Build/Receipts to "UE4Game-Win64-Development.target.xml"
Opened HairWorks sample in the Editor then File-> Package Product -> Windows -> 64-bit

EDIT: Then just clarify when packaged that the HairWorks DLL is in Engine/Binaries/ThirdParty/HairWorks/GFSDK_HairWorks.win64.dll for the packaged game if not please copy it manually from the UE4 Source

okay allright

will do this one :
Build the "Development Editor Win64"
Build the "DebugGame Win64"
Rename the "UE4Game-Win64-DebugGame.target.xml" in Engine/Build/Receipts to "UE4Game-Win64-Development.target.xml"

and then report back

edit: again FAILED.... http://www.file-upload.net/download-...sDemo.log.html log file

Are you sure you did everything correct?
This line in the log
[2015.07.01-12.30.49:218][551]MainFrameActions: Packaging (Windows (64-bit)): Program.Main: ERROR: Exception in AutomationScripts.Automation: Missing receipt 'UE4Game-Win64-Development.target.xml'. Check that this target has been built.
means it cannot find that receipt... Make sure you have renamed it or it will not build correctly..

Right thank you for that! Now narrowed it down.. It's something to do with the project! Thank you for testing that for me!

EDIT: I have no idea whats up the project, I cannot see anything to stop the hair being glitched in the Project,I have tried the Lights to see if it's a VXGI issue, No luck there, It all works in the Editor, I wonder if someone from either NVidia or Epic can help us answer this question, We have seen it's possible to package hairworks, We just can't package this particular project, It's very frustrating and I can't for the life of me figure this out

Is there currently any way to use the Sky Light for VXGI? Would probably be helpful getting the colors right in the VXGI specular, and help out occlusion since we can't use DFAO with VXGI as of yet.

I don't believe so, This is down to nVidia to intergrate so hopefully we will have it someday!

The latest development version of VXGI (will be released soon) supports environment maps for both diffuse and specular tracing, with tints.

How do you want it to interact with skylights?
