I opened and updated UE4 today and tried to create a new Basic Code C++ Project. When creating the project, the C/C++ Optimizing Complier crashes and UE4 presents me with this error

I’ve re-installed the Visual Studio Tools for C++ and the same error still happens.

Hi Cd1232,

I believe you might be missing an include in one of your C++ files (most likely in UTowerDefense.h) as that is a code error.

Cheers,

But the thing is, this is before I’ve even touched the project. It’s just from UE4 auto-generating all the files when a new project is created

Anyone?? Bueller?

What did you name your project?

For me, it doesn’t matter what I named it. Got the same error naming it TowerDefense or UTowerDefense
