Anyone knows how to generate project files also for the umodule inside the uproject? Unreal will build the module correctly, but will not generate VC project files for it. I tried using UnrealBuildTool, with -Plugin and -Module, but it will not generate project files at all… ---

What exactly do you expect to get generated? When you have a c++ plugin/module in your project, generate project files will also include any plugin in your project folder that contains a build.cs file. ---

I was expecting a separate project file for the module, but I now see the module files are under the game project. Which also works.
