Hi Glass\_Baine,

It looks like you are compiling the bleeding-edge 4.8 version of the editor. If you are compiling from Source, try compiling 4.6.1. It’s our latest official release. Let me know if it works for you or not.

If you go back to the Launcher and it still isn’t downloading the engine versions properly, please try the troubleshooting steps linked below.
