UE 5.3 Not packaging

mawilbolou · March 2, 2025, 4:30pm

Hello,

I have updated Visual studio and SDK but having trouble packaging any projects.

Here’s an example of what I have… Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Do you have Visual studio 2022 i had 2019 and i could not pack it without 2022.

mawilbolou · March 2, 2025, 5:37pm

Hello Raptor, yes I have both 2019 and 2022 installed.
I use 2019 for 4.27 and I recently installed 2022.

sergio.gardeazabal · March 2, 2025, 11:16pm

I think the problem is that you installed a compiler version that is too new for UE 5.3

UATHelper: Packaging (Windows): Using Visual Studio 2022 14.42.34435 toolchain (C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\Community\VC\Tools\MSVC\14.42.34433) and Windows 10.0.22621.0 SDK (C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10).

[...]

UATHelper: Packaging (Windows): Detected compiler newer than Visual Studio 2022, please update min version checking in

5.3 was launched with these versions

Visual Studio: Visual Studio 2022 17.4 14.34.31933 toolchain and Windows 10 SDK (10.0.18362.0)

https://dev.epicgames.com/documentation/en-us/unreal-engine/unreal-engine-5.3-release-notes?application_version=5.3#platformsdkupgrades

I recommend re-running the visual studio installer, and installing the 14.34.31933 version of MSVC. The IDE version can stay in the version you are now even if it is a bit newer

mawilbolou · March 3, 2025, 7:45am

Thanks @sergio.gardeazabal I will give it a shot

mawilbolou · March 3, 2025, 9:01am

Unfortunately, it seems like I cant update any further than 17.4.0 Preview?

RaPtOr_v9600 · March 3, 2025, 1:41pm

You can click on modify tab on visual studio 2022 and see what windows sdk is installed i use same build 17.13.2 and see what components are installed here are mine and it works with 5.3.
You can also type in project settings " Toolchain " and chose witch visual studio to use for compile.
This is my config for VS 2022

sergio.gardeazabal · March 3, 2025, 7:15pm

As @RaPtOr_v9600 mentioned, you need to use the modiy option.

What you need is leave the IDE version the same, but install different versions of some components.

For the compiler, In the modify window you can go to the Individual components tab, and then search for MSVC 14.34 , and install the x86 version

mawilbolou · March 7, 2025, 7:11am

Perfect thank you all for the help.
@RaPtOr_v9600 @sergio.gardeazabal
Really appreciate it. It’s all working.

Glad you resolve it, happy compiling and good luck on project !
