Hi there.
I’m having issues with UE5 on my Mac machine. Simply I cannot create or open any C++ project.
What I did is:
-
Install .net core 3.1 (I had to do this on Win11 so I did it on Mac as well).
1.5. Xcode is already installed and working because I develop Unity and Flutter stuff for iOS. -
Install All the components of UE5
-
When I create a C++ project, I get this:
What I get in the Log.txt file is:

I appreciate your help, for now, I will continue on my windows machine, but I would like to play around some prototypes for Apple devices
