hi,

I have a problem using GenerateProjectFiles.bat to generate project files.

the error message is

Setting up Unreal Engine 4 project files…
Binding IntelliSense data… 0%ERROR: Exception thrown while processing dependent modules of Launch
Exception thrown while processing dependent modules of Core
ERROR: Couldn’t find module rules file for module ‘ADO’.

GenerateProjectFiles ERROR: UnrealBuildTool was unable to generate project files

I have a pc running on windows 7 ultimate and installed visual studio ultimate 2013 and directx sdk june 2010.
git 4.3 branch and required dependencies installed

thanks

I had this on windows and found out that avast antivirus was causing it not to build. Maybe you could disable antivirus and see if that helps.

I have MSE(Microsoft Security Essentials) installed, but after I disabled it, the same error occurs when running GenerateProjectFiles.bat

Hey sophiepeithos, it looks like the ADO.Build.cs file is missing. Can you double-check that you have this file in the following location:

/UnrealEngine/Engine/Source/ThirdParty/ADO/ADO.Build.cs

If the file is missing, something might be wrong with the files you pulled from GitHub, in which case I’d recommend wiping and doing a re-pull, then unzipping the Required*.zip files again.
