Hello, for the past 2 days I have been trying to build ue4 from source because I want to experiment with Nvidia’s (seemingly abandoned) vxgi lighting system. I found 2 branches on github to build from but both give me build errors. the latest one I tried was this branch:
link to branch
(you might have to connect your epic acc with github to view the page)
Any info on how to fix these/ how to build ue4 from source would be helpful!
I get no errors when running setup.bat and generatprojectfiles.bat, but when I build solution in vs 2017, I get these errors:
