My Xcode is named Xcode 6
The project browser tells me

No Complier Found

So I rename my Xcode Xcode and it is found. When I now create a project, after 90%, while running mono I get this error message

ERROR: Selected Xcode (‘/Applications/Xcode 6.app/Contents/Developer’) doesn’t exist, cannot continue.

So I rename my Xcode Xcode 6 The project browser tells me

No Complier Found

What to do?

Hey m.oostrik,

Would you mind providing me with the steps you are taking, as I am a bit confused as to what you are attempting to do?

Take a look at the documentation we have below on managing your own game code to see if there are helpful tips for you within the scope of what you are attempting to do.

Let me know if you have other questions.

Cheers,

Hoi Andrew

I am attempting to create a new c++ project from the project browser an i get this error message.

An error occurred while trying to generate project files.

Running Mono...

Setting up Mono
/Users/Shared/UnrealEngine/4.9/Engine /Users/Shared/UnrealEngine/4.9/Engine/Binaries/Mac
Discovering modules, targets and source code for game...
ERROR: Selected Xcode ('/Applications/Xcode 6.app/Contents/Developer') doesn't exist, cannot continue.

I also get this message when i try to generate a Xcode project from the file menu in the Editor

I had to rename my Xcode from Xcode 6 to Xcode in order for the the editor to find it.

Try using any other name than Xcode in the project title. With that being said, I attempted to reproduce your issue, but did not get the same results.

I would just avoid using words like Xcode and numerical values in your title to avoid potential naming issues like the one you are experiencing.

Thank you,

I’m confused what you mean by project title.

the name of my project is MyProject
and the issue is not with the name but with the creation of a project.

step by step:

  • I launch the Unreal Editor
  • I choose the C++ Basic Code template
  • I Click Create Project
  • And I get the Error.

In short I have not been able to use the editor with Xcode at all

Well you mentioned you renamed your Xcode Project instead saying C++ project, which I assumed you were talking about your project title.

Would you mind telling me what version of Xcode you are running, and providing me with your system specifications?

I would make sure your Xcode is up to date to see if that resolves the issue. Is this issue new to 4.9.2 or can you not create a C++ in any engine version?

Thanks,
