4.6.0 vaRest & JSON query plugins won't install

Tried to install vaRest and JSON query and both behave in the sam manner. I enable the plugin, then restart the editor and then it fails to build and won’t start up again.

I made sure to get the latest versions for UE 4.6.0 in both cases.
I made new clean top-down projects in both cases.
I’m on mac, if that makes any difference.

Hey Ben-

It doesn’t appear that those plugins are Epic content so we are unable to offer support directly. Based on what I found on the Epic wiki it does not appear that the plugins offer Mac support. Below are the links to each plugin’s wiki page.

JSON - A new, community-hosted Unreal Engine Wiki - Announcements - Epic Developer Community Forums

vaRest - A new, community-hosted Unreal Engine Wiki - Announcements - Epic Developer Community Forums

The author’s contact information is located in the top right of the page if you’d like to contact them directly. I apologize that we are unable to help further.

Cheers

Thanks!

It wasn’t very clear to me that they were windows-only. Are all plugins originally built for windows? Is it very tricky to build your own Mac-version from the source? :slight_smile:

It depends on what the author of the plugin builds for. People working with a are more likely to build a plugin for and the same goes for Mac users.
