Search help

  • Simple searches use one or more words. Separate the words with spaces (cat dog) to search cat,dog or both. Separate the words with plus signs (cat +dog) to search for items that may contain cat but must contain dog.
  • You can further refine your search on the search results page, where you can search by keywords, author, topic. These can be combined with each other. Examples
    • cat dog --matches anything with cat,dog or both
    • cat +dog --searches for cat +dog where dog is a mandatory term
    • cat -dog -- searches for cat excluding any result containing dog
    • [cats] —will restrict your search to results with topic named "cats"
    • [cats] [dogs] —will restrict your search to results with both topics, "cats", and "dogs"

Incredibuild fails to build when Unreal Engine is installed

0

I'd like to make use of Incredibuild, but I currently am unable to build with it installed. I have made no changes to Unreal Engine 4.9, nor to Visual Studio ( beyond installing Incredibuild ) I am able to compile just fine without Incredibuild installed, but as soon as I installed it, my builds fail with the following error:

I may have my own answer, though it seems a bit backwards. It seems that if you are compiling for UE4, you are NOT supposed to use the IncrediBuild menu to build in VS, as it interferes with UE4 BuildTool. If you use the normal build menu in VS things work as expected.

For those who are curious, I had asked IncrediBuild support if I should be seeing any performance gain on a single machine, and was told roughly 30%, unfortunately I am not seeing any performance gains from using IncrediBuild on a 8 core machine ( local ) as compared to compiling without it. I am going to give it a bit more time before uninstalling it.

I am hoping anyone else who may be thinking about using IncrediBuild finds this answer useful, for both performance, and how to get around the aforementioned issue.

That worked for me. It seems like UBT calls Incredibuild by itself, so using the Incredibuild menu to call UBT causes a nested call which is not supported
