I am using Visual Studio 2022 for Unreal Engine 5.4.2. I tried creating a folder and files from the IDE, but these files do not show up in the Unreal Engine editor. I have tried everything I found, which includes:
- Using the .uproject option and clicking on Generate Visual Studio project files
- Recompiling the project
- Using Refresh Visual Studio Project from the Unreal editor
- Restarting the editor
- Compiling from the Unreal editor
The files do not show up only in the Unreal Engine editor, but they do exist and are visible in the IDE and the folder where the project is stored. They are not deleted and remain there. I don’t know if the files created from the IDE just don’t show up but still work; I haven’t tried that yet.
