I can´t download Unreal Engine Version 4.8.1

Development Programming & Scripting

I need to dwonload Unreal Engine Version 4.8.1, but I am unable to do so through Epic Games Launcher. I can only download 4.8.2, which is one I am currently using. I need to download 4.8.1, because that is only version I have at my school, and it won´t open correctly my projects made in version 4.8.2.
Any ideas on how to solve this problem?

Hi brianorbea,

Unfortunately there’s not way to get a previous binary version through Launcher. If school doesn’t update to 4.8.2, you can grab source version of 4.8.1 from GitHub at home and build that. Here’s link to that (note you must have set up your GitHub account with Epic to see it):

If you haven’t built from source before, here’s some information on how to do that:

Note that it’s worth school to upgrade to 4.8.2, which fixes some crashes in 4.8.1. Hope that helps!
