Before this error occurred i was receiving another error notifying me that unreal cannot detect a c++ compiler and to install Xcode even after installing Xcode. I’ve installed multiple version and that has seem to address that issue for now. However, I am now receiving a different error. I have tried many solutions such as export to the directory from terminal however no luck.
An error occurred while trying to generate project files.
