Packaging Issues with VXGI, and VXGI-4.9 nvidia branches
Hi all,
I’m new to the thread, and am having issues with packaging not working with vxgi branches.
I tried with same results for both the vxgi (4.8), and vxgi-4.9 branches of NvPhysX repository and they are working in the editor in standalone etc, but not when i try the launch button, or when i try to package for my win64 configuration. I get the same error in both of those cases.
These branches:
/tree/VXGI
https://github/apanteleev/UnrealEngine/tree/VXGI-4.9
I get error when packaging:

You may have to build the UE4 project with your IDE. Alternatively, build using UnrealBuildTool with the commandline:
UE4Game <Platform> <Configuration>
I was testing packaging wih the out-of-the-box SciFiHallway from Samples directory of the branches.
From seeing previous response (page 62) from to …:

…I gathered that I need to build UE4 twice in visual studio: once in ‘Development Editor’ configuration, and once in ‘Development’ mode after to generate the UE4Game.exe. I get the same 7 errors the reports in post when trying to build in ‘Development’ configuration to generate UE4Game.exe:

I find it strange that these 7 errors all mention when I only have on my machine and on windows8.1.
If packaging is indeed meant to work at point, would anyone have a clue what might be off in my configuration?
My Configuration: Windows 8.1 (64bit), Visual Studio 2013, Version 4.5 .NET framework, Latest Geforce 358.70 Driver
My Machine: 2 gtx970 SLI (SLI not active for test), i7 5930k 3.5 ghz
I’ve attached a few files in case it helps:
file 1: the log for packaging failure when trying to package the SciFiHallway out the box sample.
file 2: the 7 errors i get when trying to build the UE4 in ‘Development’ configuration to generate UE4Game.exe
file 3: my machine specs
…If anyone has suggestions for next steps to try to resolve it would be much appreciated.
I’m considering installing windows 10 as a next step for lack of a better idea.
