going over Wraiths posts on the forum here[link text][1] and Im having some issues getting my game to compile now.
Rocket doesnt have a way to create slate.h and slate.cpp files from inside the editor, so being a new person to VS I right clicked->addNew and created both my header and cpp files.
the error Im getting is:

1>------ Build started: Project: SteamPunk, Configuration: Development_Editor x64 ------
1>EXEC : error : No PCH usage for file "C:\Game\SteamPunk\Source\SteamPunk\Resources\SteamySlateHUDWidget.cpp" . Missing #include header?

========== Build: 0 succeeded, 1 failed, 0 up-to-date, 0 skipped ==========

and my code is :

#include "SteamPunk.h"
#include "SteamyHUD.h"
#include "SteamySlateHUDWidget.h"

void SteamySlateHUDWidget::Construct(const FArguments& InArgs)
{
	OwnerHUD = InArgs._OwnerHUD;

	ChildSlot
		.VAlign(VAlign_Fill)
		.HAlign(HAlign_Fill)
		[
			SNew(SOverlay)
			+SOverlay::Slot()
			.VAlign(VAlign_Top)
			.HAlign(HAlign_Center)
			[
				SNew(STextBlock)
				.ShadowColorAndOpacity(FLinearColor::Black)
				.ColorAndOpacity(FLinearColor::White)
				.ShadowOffset(FIntPoint(-1,1))
				.Font(FSlateStyle::GetFontStyle("NormalFont"))
				.Text(this, &SteamySlateHUDWidget::GetSomeString)
			]
		];
}

FString SteamySlateHUDWidget::GetSomeString() const
{
	return FString(TEXT("Hello!"));
}

#pragma once

#include "Slate.h"

class SteamySlateHUDWidget : public SCompoundWidget
{
	SLATE_BEGIN_ARGS(SteamySlateHUDWidget)
		: _OwnerHUD()
	{}

	SLATE_ARGUMENT(TWeakObjectPtr, OwnerHUD)

	SLATE_END_ARGS()

	/** Needed for every widget */
	void Construct(const FArguments& InArgs);

	/** returns a string of information to display */
	FString	GetSomeString() const;

private:
	/** Pointer to our parent HUD */
	TWeakObjectPtr OwnerHUD;
};

any thoughts?

Here ya go!

PublicDependencyModuleNames.AddRange(new string[] { “Core”, “CoreUObject”, “Engine” });

Ok, try adding “Slate” to that inside that. That may be your issue

Thanks

I ‘guess’ that worked?
Im now getting these errors:

    1>  Errors detected while compiling C:\Game\SteamPunk\Intermediate\BuildData\BuildRules\SteamPunkModuleRules.dll:

Do you have another project using those names?

Hi Nathan,

Can you go into your YourProjectName.Build.cs file and copy over the the line that looks similar to this:

PublicDependencyModuleNames.AddRange(new string[] { “Core”, “CoreUObject”, “Engine” });

Thanks
