****! Can you please keep your 1st post updated and with the correct info.
Or start to remove some of the posts in this threat thats totaly irrelevant. it sucks having to dig though lots of BS posts to find some clues on how to get the new bins working.
1st.
Not true at all.
The Dev Kit version is still 197.1. Dosent matter if you verify or not.
More so. If you install the new bins manualy. it will rollback to 197.1 if you do a verify after the manual install
2nd.
You removed the github link to the 200 bins.
As long as the epic launcher is overwiring the 200 bins. please have the link there and Warn people about this issue in your 1st post.
3rd.
I think there is some bug with the launcher. it keeps backing up files for no reasons.
Example of whats happening. i do a verify. “with 197.1” . it will backup the files.
\ARKDevKit[SomeTime]\Engine\Saved\Config\Windows\EditorGameAgnostic.ini
\ARKDevKit[SomeTime]\Projects\ShooterGame\DerivedDataCache\Boot.ddc
\ARKDevKit[SomeTime]\Projects\ShooterGame\Intermediate\CachedAssetRegistry.bin
\ARKDevKit[SomeTime]\Projects\ShooterGame\Saved\Config\Windows\EditorUserSettings.ini
\ARKDevKit[SomeTime]\Projects\ShooterGame\Saved\Logs\ShooterGame.log
Now without opening the dev kit, i do a verify again. The same files get backup again.
This makes no sense. Why backup files that hasent been changed ?
On a side note.
Im glad that your moving away from steam with the development kit. but you could have made the transition between steam and epic a bit more smooth.
