Hello,
I want to start by saying that i have no experience with Unreal but we currently have no programmers with Unreal experience in our company, so I thought maybe I could start here.
We have a Unreal plugin for our device that was written in Unreal 4.21 and we build it for Unreal version 4.18-4.24. The plugin is a mixture of C++ code and blueprints. Yesterday I found out, that the plugin works fine for all versions 4.21 and above, but for versions below 4.21 I see the plugin in the plugin menu, but i can’t see the blueprints or our demo map in the content manager and I am also unable to work with the blueprints. I have a few questions now:
-
Does it make any sense what I describe here?
-
Is it normal that our plugin is not compatible with lower Unreal versions, even though it shows no errors during building?
-
What is the smartest way to start fixing this problem? Is there a way to port the project to older Unreal versions or should I just restart with the plugin in an older version?
I would really appreciate any input, as I begin to learn Unreal now. If you need any more information, I am happy to help as good as possible.
Regards
