GatherText fails and the log only gives this error:
LogStreaming: Warning: Failed to read file “H:/UNREAL ENGINE/…/Content/Localization/Marte/Marte.locmeta” error.
If I open it with 5.4.1 it does create it and compiles the translations and so on. But I can’t use 5.4.1 because one of my assets doesn’t work in 5.4.1 (and the developer says it’s a problem with the UE developers who haven’t given it the compatibility level).
How do I fix the *.locmeta?
I added a Marte.locmeta by hand, did a ‘CompileText’ and the locmeta file was regenerated.
But GatherText still crashes, now without giving any errors.
Nobody knows how to fix GatherText?
The solution was here: Localization - gathering text produces no output and fails - #8 by dacabad
It also created the line in the Gather.ini ‘ExcludePathFilters=Content/Localization/*’ → although I don’t really understand what it has to do, because in that folder there is not a single word to translate, nor the configuration or anything like that.
Instead of moving the StringTables, I have selected the folders where the words to translate are (mainly the folder where the Widgets are) in the ‘Include Path Wildcards’, and I have not added Content/*.
