Impossible To Build 64-Bit Shipping Game

For some reason I cannot seem to build a Shipping-Build version of our game for 64-Bit Windows. The options is greyed out and I am only able to build 32-bit shipping builds.

I can build Development and Debug builds just fine in 64-bit.

I’ve tried this in both the GitHub 4.6.1 version of the Engine, and the Launcher 4.6.1 version of the engine to no avail.

A 64-bit version of the build is extremely important to us, as we have to be able to take advantage of the 64-bit system for our game.

I have this as well.

It’s a known issue, check this thread for more info 64-bit Shipping UE4 AnswerHub

You could try rolling back to 4.6.0 github, someone in that thread had some success there.

I guess your system is using a 32bit. Because i am using a 64bit window 7 or window 8.1. only turn 32bit in grey.

I can assure you I’m on 64-bit, you probably have either ‘Debug’ or ‘Development’ build mode selected in the menu below that.

Thanks, I’m assuming that only the GitHub version allows 64-bit shipping builds, why that functionality would be removed from the launcher-version of the engine I have no idea.

I downloaded 4.6.1 on GitHub and has no options either. Not going to bother trying to rollback for now this close to 4.7, I’ll hope it’s fixed by then.

no i don’t have any idea what you mean for ? I have 32bit and 64bit windows and both of them work fine. It’s ok with me not a bug anyway. if your windows are in 32bit. 64bit will be disable. If windows run in 64bit 32bit will be disable. Otherwise just re-download the software… uninstall unreal also and install back again and see if it works. if not, reinstall your window.
