GatherText can't find project dll

Development Programming & Scripting
1

I’m trying to work out localization, and from I understand I have to run the GatherText commandlet.

When I run it, I get the following popup message:

Missing MyProject Modules
The following modules are missing or built with a different engine version:
UE4Editor-MyProject.dll
Would you like to rebuild them now?

I click yes and it fails. I compile it in Visual Studio no problem, the file exists in my Binaries\Win64 folder, build with 4.8.

I’m running it as follows in the command line:

"D:\Program Files\Epic Games\4.7\Engine\Binaries\Win64\"UE4Editor.exe E:\Programming\C++\Unreal\MyProject\MyProject.uproject -run=GatherText -Config=Config\Localization\Game.ini -log

I have the following Config file

I appreciate the comment, but in Windows your statement and mine are equivalent. I still get the error. I’ll check out the link, thanks.

I am using 4.8…that could be the issue! Let me check.
Edit: Yeah that was the problem, I was using the wrong version of unreal

Looks like you have a quote in the wrong place in your commandline.

“D:\Program Files\Epic Games\4.7\Engine\Binaries\Win64\UE4Editor.exe” “E:\Programming\C++\Unreal\MyProject\MyProject.uproject” -run=GatherText -Config=Config\Localization\Game.ini -log

On a separate note, you might have an easier time using our new experimental Localization Dashboard.

O, I just noticed you’re using 4.7. The localization dashboard was added in 4.8.
