Hot-reloadable files are expected to contain a hyphen (UE5.4 fom source code)

[Ivan3z]

I found adding the follow argument “Hot-Reload” does works!!

-ModuleWithSuffix=MyProjectName,XXXX

Where XXXX seems to be a random number (but different to preexistent in Win64 folder)

Complete command:

...\Build.bat" -ModuleWithSuffix=MyProjectName,XXXX MyProjectNameEditor Win64 Development "...\MyProjectName.uproject" -waitmutex

It woks with CMD:

Now i need it work with Rider…

Any Idea to get that is welcome!!

Thank you so much!!

If you build your project within vscode under Linux, you should noticed that the UE5 does not Hot Reload the newly c++ code. And after some researches, I found a solution to resolve this issue. First, You need install the vscode extension. Then, Generate vscode project file And edit your .vscode/tasks.json file { "version": "2.0.0", "tasks": [ { "label": "MyProjectEditor Linux Development Build", "group": "build", "command": "Engine/Build/BatchFiles/Linux/Build.sh"…

Where can i modify this? it is read only…

I have a bat file and it does work…

@echo off

set UNREALDIR=C:\UnrealEngine-5.4

::give a random number between 0000 and 9999
set /A NUM=%RANDOM% %% 9999-0000

::Clean Compilation
set "WITHOUTEDITOR=CatharsisEditor Win64 Development "%USERPROFILE%\Desktop\UNREAL PROJECT\Catharsis544\Catharsis.uproject" -waitmutex -NoHotReload"

::Hot Reload
set "WITHEDITOR= -ModuleWithSuffix=Catharsis,%NUM%  CatharsisEditor Win64 Development "%USERPROFILE%\Desktop\UNREAL PROJECT\Catharsis544\Catharsis.uproject" -waitmutex"

TASKLIST | FINDSTR "UnrealEditor.exe" && set ARGUMENTS=%WITHEDITOR% || set ARGUMENTS=%WITHOUTEDITOR%

call "%UNREALDIR%\Engine\Build\BatchFiles\Build.bat" %ARGUMENTS%

pause

I just need Rider use it

Thank you!!
