Unreal Engine 4.25 released!

General Announcements
442

Do have any date on the preview?

443

They are yet to announce the 4.25Plus release before the 4.26, this one is very important because of the extended support.

444

Is 4.25 a LTS version? If so, where can I read about this?

445

Itā€™s the 4.25Plus release not 4.25, being part of several videos like this one at the provided timestamp:

446

Sounds more like 4.25+ is mostly for those who releases on consoles. 4.25+ was there since day one. I think 4.25.4 will be the next public hotfix release and 4.25+ is there for whoever needs it. It wonā€™t be an official public release. All that is how I understood it - it all might go a different route.

447

Could you please find us some more light on the proceedings regarding the 4.25Plus branch mentioned at the video I posted above?

448

I tried to build 4.26 two weeks ago, but there were errors when running the setup.

449

4.25plus seems to be the only source that works with compiling chaos and it shows as 4.25.0 once compiled. I tried all other branches for chaos and none work except 4.25plus
so iā€™m thinking plus means plus chaosā€¦

450

Am I the only one experiencing constant crashes in 4.25.3 using dx12 and raytracing?
My setup is rtx2080ti, and Iā€™m using the latest nvidia drivers, as well as the latest windows 10 update.
I have constant crashes when playing in the editor the raytraced interior archviz template in 4.25.3.

This is the error message I get: DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_REMOVED with Reason: DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_HUNG

451

Did you test this with an Unreal Project, eg. Shooter Example, too?

452

I just tested it, and also got a crash after a few minutes.

453

Check the top search topics, this sounds like it is related to mixed-up graphics cards https://answers.unrealengine.com/seaā€¦tionStatus=all

    The "Plus" branch is for games shipping on next-gen consoles

  • Flag

  • yes but why is it the only branch that will compile with chaos? seems someone broke all the other branches LOL

  • just so you know. 4.25plus is the only one with chaos working. the rest error out.

455

Even 4.26 is erroring out?

456

Chaos doesnā€™t even work in 4.26 - check out some tweets where people tested it. Itā€™s not production ready at all.

457

i donā€™t even see chaos in 4.26 :frowning: it donā€™t show for me in plugins list. it does in source build but not launcher version.
also my launcher keeps crashing when installing things :confused:

458

Thats really weird. This guy here, which covers gamedev news, just installed the preview and did a small chaos demonstration without any problem whatsoever!

459

Iā€™m still struggling with chaos cloth in 4.26. Managed to get it to work but it takes some time to load it both in level and in preview, engine freezes from time to time when you make adjustments and it behaves overall weirdly. I never had any problems with previous clothing system before. Doesnā€™t feel stable for now.

460

This is still a preview and it is only the 1st in a line of probably 5 previews before the release, just as happened with 4.25. Report as much as you find on broken/missing features that the developers can properly fix them before release.
