thanks for clarifying that.i will take a look .
cheers 
Did u test EveryPlay plugin ?
I make it to work, but it ask me about meta data all the time, i try to add meta data with a Function but i’ve got all the time an error , missing symbol Everyplay.SetMetadata(String, String) ?
Hi AnaroGames,
Apologies but i totally missed those messages. i haven’t logged in for long time.
Regarding the Everyplay plugin couldn’t make it work. At least not opening the sharing menu and upload the video. I could record a video and save it though.
I had wrote about it in another thread, at android section forum if i remember.
I even send it to unity team to have a look but they couldn’t find anything.
So i had abandoned it.
When you say you make it work, can you open the sharing dialog and upload videos?
Hello there!
PLEASE!!!
Someone can attach screenshots of project settings and BP nodes for sharing screenshot plugin?
Sharing doesn’t work for me with these settings (4.18.3 version)
I’m having troubles compiling the Sharing plugin for 4.19
Anyone been able to successfully do it and got some instructions (or even able to share the 4.19 compiled version?)
Many thanks in advance!
Hi aussieburger.
Can you please post what errors you get when you try to compile it.
After 4.16 you need to tweak few lines of codes in the plugins in order to compile it. But i haven’t try 4.19 so it might be something new.
Hey I just get a “Could not be compiled. Try rebuilding from source manually.” popup when trying to start a blank C++ project with this plugin in the Plugins folder. I did not make any changes to the plugin code (what are the changes required for 4.16?) and I did these steps:
- Open UE4 4.19 binary
- Open a new blank C++ project
- Close project and visual studio once they open
- Copy over the Sharing plugin to a Plugins subfolder in the project folder.
- Open the project
- Press Yes to “Plug was compiled with a different version of the engine. Do you want to compile the plugin?”
These steps work for other plugins in the past I’ve needed to update. Should I try something different?
Many thanks in advance for the info!
Generate visual studio project files after you add the plugin, open the visual studio and build the plugin.
But before you do check these few lines of codes in the plugin and source folder:
At …\Your_Project\Plugins\Sharing\Source\Sharing
open Sharing.Build.cs fle and check the 4th line it should be:
...
public Sharing(ReadOnlyTargetRules Target) : base (Target)
...
At …\Unreal Projects\Your_Project\Source
open Test_4_14.Target.cs file and use the following code:
// Fill out your copyright notice in the Description page of Project Settings.
using UnrealBuildTool;
using System.Collections.Generic;
public class Your_ProjectTarget : TargetRules
{
public Your_ProjectTarget(TargetInfo Target) : base(Target)
{
Type = TargetType.Game;
ExtraModuleNames.Add("Your_Project");
}
}
then open the Test_4_14Editor.Target.cs file and use the following code:
using UnrealBuildTool;
using System.Collections.Generic;
public class Your_ProjectEditorTarget : TargetRules
{
public Your_ProjectEditorTarget(TargetInfo Target) : base(Target)
{
Type = TargetType.Editor;
ExtraModuleNames.Add("Your_Project");
}
}
Then at …\Unreal Projects\Your_Project\Source\Your_Project
open Test_4_14.Build.cs file and check the 3rd line of code:
..
public Your_Project(ReadOnlyTargetRules Target) : base(Target)
{
PublicDependencyModuleNames.AddRange(new string] { "Core", "CoreUObject", "Engine", "InputCore" });
PrivateDependencyModuleNames.AddRange(new string] { });
where “Your_Project” is the name of your project.
Try it and tell me if it works.
Thanks again for the reply. I followed your steps but unfortunately I get this error:
Running U:/UnrealEngine/Epic Games/UE_4.19/Engine/Binaries/DotNET/UnrealBuildTool.exe -projectfiles -project="U:/UnrealEngine/MyProjects/sharingTest/sharingTest.uproject" -game -rocket -progress

When I “Generate visual studio project files”. and since that does not work the plugin does not appear in Visual Studio
Check this two threads and try with a new project after you make the changing in the sharing plugin and the required file
and
Hi Makis I am using a brand new completely blank project (as in step #2 in my 2nd last post). When checking those links they are for upgrading from older project versions. The changes they mention are already the default in 4.19 (ie my project source files do not need any of those modifications as they are already like that).
If I remove your plugin then the generate visual studio files command works without error.
Any other ideas? Do you have 4.19 from the Epic launcher installed yourself?
Ok open Sharing.Build.cs file and check few changes in the code:
using System.IO;
namespace UnrealBuildTool.Rules
{
public class Sharing : ModuleRules
{
public Sharing(ReadOnlyTargetRules Target) : base (Target)
{
PublicIncludePaths.AddRange(
new string] {
// ... add public include paths required here ...
}
);
PrivateIncludePaths.AddRange(
new string] {
"Developer/Sharing/Private",
// ... add other private include paths required here ...
}
);
PublicDependencyModuleNames.AddRange(
new string]
{
"Core",
"CoreUObject",
"Engine",
"ImageWrapper"
// ... add other public dependencies that you statically link with here ...
}
);
PrivateDependencyModuleNames.AddRange(
new string]
{
//"CoreUObject",
//"Engine",
//"InputCore",
//"RHI",
//"RenderCore",
//"HTTP",
//"UMG", "Slate", "SlateCore",
//"ImageWrapper",
// ... add private dependencies that you statically link with here ...
}
);
DynamicallyLoadedModuleNames.AddRange(
new string]
{
// ... add any modules that your module loads dynamically here ...
}
);
PrivateIncludePathModuleNames.AddRange(
new string] {
"Settings",
"Launch",
}
);
if (Target.Platform == UnrealTargetPlatform.IOS) {
PublicFrameworks.AddRange(
new string]
{
}
);
}
else if(Target.Platform == UnrealTargetPlatform.Android)
{
PrivateDependencyModuleNames.AddRange(new string] { "Sharing_APL.xml" });
string PluginPath = Utils.MakePathRelativeTo(ModuleDirectory, Target.RelativeEnginePath);
AdditionalPropertiesForReceipt.Add("AndroidPlugin", Path.Combine(PluginPath, "Sharing_APL.xml"));
//string PluginPath = Utils.MakePathRelativeTo(ModuleDirectory, BuildConfiguration.RelativeEnginePath);
//AdditionalPropertiesForReceipt.Add(new ReceiptProperty("AndroidPlugin", Path.Combine(PluginPath, "Sharing_APL.xml")));
}
}
}
}
Create a new project, add a cpp class if it is blueprint only, add the plugin folder with the modified sharing plugin and generate project solution.
Open the project and activate the plugin. After activation you will need to restart editor.
Then when you try t open it again it will ask you to rebuild the plugin. Say no and open the visual studio solution and build it manually.
Then you should be able to use the nodes in the blueprint. I haven’t packaged an android project with it, try it and if you find any problem, i will try to help.
Hi - the plugin now compiles however when building the project the following error occurs a few seconds after starting a build:
UATHelper: Packaging (Android (ETC2)): ERROR: Could not find definition for module 'Sharing_APL.xml' (referenced via Target -> Sharing.Build.cs)
PackagingResults: Error: Could not find definition for module 'Sharing_APL.xml' (referenced via Target -> Sharing.Build.cs)
For anyone following this thread the following change was also required for it to build correctly:
Change the following code:
Code:
else if(Target.Platform == UnrealTargetPlatform.Android) { PrivateDependencyModuleNames.AddRange(new string] { "Launch" }); string PluginPath = Utils.MakePathRelativeTo(ModuleDirectory, Target.RelativeEnginePath); AdditionalPropertiesForReceipt.Add("AndroidPlugin", Path.Combine(PluginPath, "Sharing_APL.xml")); //string PluginPath = Utils.MakePathRelativeTo(ModuleDirectory, BuildConfiguration.RelativeEnginePath); //AdditionalPropertiesForReceipt.Add(new ReceiptProperty("AndroidPlugin", Path.Combine(PluginPath, "Sharing_APL.xml"))); }
at Sharing.Build.cs file.
I added a pull request for the Sharing plugin to get it working on 4.19 with Android versions greater than 6.0 (api 23+)
Hello, I’m having trouble wrapping my game with the AppLovin plugin

Hi caiomeck,
Try changing the following line of code at AppLovin.Build.cs
else if(Target.Platform == UnrealTargetPlatform.Android)
{
PrivateDependencyModuleNames.AddRange(new string] { "Launch" });
string PluginPath = Utils.MakePathRelativeTo(ModuleDirectory, Target.RelativeEnginePath);
AdditionalPropertiesForReceipt.Add("AndroidPlugin", Path.Combine(PluginPath, "AppLovin_APL.xml"));
//string PluginPath = Utils.MakePathRelativeTo(ModuleDirectory, BuildConfiguration.RelativeEnginePath);
//AdditionalPropertiesForReceipt.Add(new ReceiptProperty("AndroidPlugin", Path.Combine(PluginPath, "AppLovin_APL.xml")));
}
I edited AppLovin.Build.cs and gave error, I will leave the attached file for you to see if it is correct

Check the first lines of code too, i forgot it:
using System.IO; namespace UnrealBuildTool.Rules { public class AppLovin : ModuleRules { public AppLovin(ReadOnlyTargetRules Target) : base (Target)
