Hello everyone. Hopefully this will be a quick-fix. I recently re-installed VS2013, and have been having troubles building anything for UE4 at all. I’ve tried installing the June 2010 runtimes, and have made sure my environment variables are set properly since the reinstall. Unfortunately, I’m still receiving this error:
1>------ Build started: Project:
Shale, Configuration:
Development_Editor x64 ------ 1>

Any help on this matter would be GREATLY appreciated. Thank you!!
It seems like this error has stopped happening, but I’m still receiving this at the end, regardless of what project I’m compiling (obviously, the referenced directory changes):

Bury this. I am an absolute idiot. I kept digging into the Build.bat file thinking there was an error with it, not knowing that a failure to build is just an error in my own code with the Unreal Build Tool is then unable to handle. I fixed all the bugs in my code, and it compiled perfectly.
