When I add new c++ file, It doesn't show up in UE5 editor. #ue5

Hello everyone, when I create a c++ class it doesn’t show up in ue5 editor. I created a c++ character class, and it opened a visual studio, but I can’t see this in the c++ classes folder. How can I fix this?
#Editorissue #UE5

Hi, How did you create the class? Manually or through the editor? Try Deleting the Intermediate and Binary Folders and regenerating Project files. If you are using a custom module, and You are adding your class to the c++ module, and they both don’t show up see this tutorial https://store.algosyntax.com/tutorials/unreal-engine/unreal-missing-module-in-c-class-creation-dialog/

I am adding classes using the editor. I deleted the files that you said, but nothing changed. I can’t see c++ classes yet on editor :frowning:

Hi okay, ill try help. First let’s delete all these folders and regenerate project files:

  • .vs
  • Binaries
  • DerivedDataCache
  • Intermediate
  • Saved
  • *.sln
  1. After that, check if the content folder is marked to show C++ Classes.

  2. If all else fails, Send me a screenshot of your .uproject file ,
    It should be referencing your module which contains the C++ class. You can reach me at support .at. algosyntax.com

I’ll open a support ticket for you and try help you track this down.
