Hello,
The engine continues to crash on me, while i’m actively working on code. I create a C++ Project without issue and can begin development. At some point though, the engine will crash and when I try to reopen the project i’m presented with “The following modules are missing or built with a different engine version:” error. When I select “Yes” to rebuild, another error appears saying my project cannot be rebuilt, and to build it from source manually. I’ve tried to generate the VS files from the .uproject file, reopen and build the project again to no avail.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Hey -
Is the editor crashing while working with code in Visual Studio or while in the editor itself? Does it crash on compile or at another point? If you rebuild in VS can you then use the .uproject to open the project? Additionally, if you could post the log files from the crash it will help us determine what the cause is. The log files can be found in the Saved->Logs folder of the project.
Cheers
Hey ,
I’ve noticed the editor crashing when working in Visual Studio. I’d look up from writing some code to find the editor crashed. Rebuilding in VS then opening the .uproject didn’t work. However, I tried commenting out the last function I wrote before things broke down, and that seemed to allow me to successfully rebuild and start the editor again (Which is odd and doesn’t make sense to my untrained eye). I’ve attached a log, let me know if that helps you determine the issue, or if more logs are needed.
Thanks again.
How long was the editor running before the crash? Does the crash happen consistently when working in VS?
Probably a couple hours or so, just tinkering around. And it seems to be fairly consistent so far; i’ve had to restart my project a couple times now due to this issue.
Hey -
Reading over the log it appears that the crash happened during a hot reload, specifically referencing the CMP_Jewel class. If this class does exist make sure it is in the /Script/Puzzler3 folder (which is where VS is looking for it). If it is not part of your project then you may want to try refreshing the references by right clicking on the .uproject file and select Generate Project Files.
Additionally you mentioned that a missing dll in the title. You can try deleting the dlls from the Engine/Binaries/Win64 folder of the engine install location (if there is a specific dll you can delete just the one). After that you will need to rebuild the engine to regenerate the dlls.
Cheers
Hey ,
I’ll see what I can do regarding the crash. I think I was actively working in the CMP_Jewel class when the crash occurred; I can’t be sure though. But I will try these steps in the event it happens again.
Thanks for your help!
