Building on OS X: Failed to produce item: UE4Editor-UnreadEd.dylib

Hi,

I’m trying to build 4.4 release on OS X but have been hitting following error:

ERROR: UBT ERROR: Failed to produce item: /Users/Shared/UnrealEngineSrc/Engine/Binaries/Mac/UE4Editor.app/Contents/MacOS/UE4Editor-UnrealEd.dylib

I’ve tried to build on three different Macs including a fresh install of 10.9.4 Mavericks (+Xcode) in a VM.

So far I have not found a way to view more verbose log output. Any help is appreciated.

Hey dexter0,

I’ve let developers know you’re experiencing this issue, and I will let you know what they find as soon as I can. Thanks for your patience!

Hey dexter0,

It looks like Required_2of2 dependencies did not get installed properly. On Mac, you need to make sure you take 3 folders (Templates, Samples, and Engine) out of Required_2of2 folder before Option+dragging them into UnrealEngine folder.

Hi ,

I am having same error even though I am precisely following steps for Mac specified here:
https://github.com/NvPhysX/UnrealEngine/tree/WaveWorks

Install GitHub for Mac then fork and
clone our repository. To use Git from
Terminal, see Setting up Git
and Fork a Repo articles. If you’d
rather not use Git, use the 'Download
’ button on right to get the
source directly.

Install latest version of Xcode.

Open your source folder in Finder and
double-click on Setup.command to
download binary content for the
engine. You can close Terminal
window afterwards.

If you downloaded source as a .
file, you may see a warning about it
being from an unidentified developer
(because . files on GitHub aren’t
digitally signed). To work around it,
right-click on Setup.command, select
Open, then click Open button.

In same folder, double-click
GenerateProjectFiles.command. It
should take less than a minute to
complete.

Load project into Xcode by
double-clicking on UE4.xcodeproj
file. Select UE4Editor - Mac for
My Mac target in title bar, then
select the ‘Product > Build’ menu
item. Compiling may take anywhere
between 15 and 40 minutes, depending
on your system specs.

After compiling finishes, select the
‘Product > Run’ menu item to load the
editor.

are there any other steps I am missing?

Thanks a lot,

Hi clcl,

Which version of engine are you attempting this with? Which OS version do you use, and which Xcode version?
