Do I have to install UE4 on my other computers to use SWARM?

Development Rendering

I am using UE4 at home and I have 3 computers at home. But only 1 computer has UE4 installed in it. I would like to use other computers for helping with building lighting with SWARM agent. Do I need to install a full version of UE4 on all other computers for this, or can I just install (or copy paste) SWARM agent exe and other related DLL files and do it.

This is because for example, my father would not want me to install some heavy software like UE4 on his machine :stuck_out_tongue: heheā€¦

Hello,

Please find below the link to a thread about SWARM:

I think your question is related to the point 3) of this thread.
According to gmpreussnerā€™s answer, it is not mandatory to install UE4 on the ā€œslaveā€ computers, but some files will be downloaded on them.

I hope this information will be useful for you.
