Hey MisterW-

The OtherCompilationError(5) is usually accompanied by other information regarding the error. If you post the full Output tab from VS it should provide a clue to the problem just above where it reports the OtherCompilationError.

Cheers

I hope you can help me it is a long way to learn everything from the engine

Hey MisterW-

The line just above OtherCompilationError(5) shows that on line 17 of BaseCharakter.h, the compiler doesn’t know what “Caterogy” is. I believe this is a typo meant to be Category and making this change should allow the project to compile.

Cheers
