I am getting this message on a new install of macOS. I just installed Xcode and my hardware can run Metal:
“Xcode installed on this Mac is too old to be used for Metal shader compilation. Falling back to runtime text shaders, which are slower. Please update to the latest version of Xcode for the best performance.”
I am running UE4.16 on macOS 10.12.5. Xcode is latest too 8.3.3
Is the message I am getting correct how do I resolve this?
Yeah I just got this new machine and did a fresh install of everything, wondered if it might be 8.3.3
Opened Xcode to confirm TOC. I also installed homebrew, so I know Xcode CLI is working.
I had the same problem and the “command line tools” trick worked for me too. Thanks @Anadin !
Also a bit weird to me that the unreal message isn’t clear about this because theres no way I would have figured this out on my own. I guess thats what this forum of tribal knowledge is for.
