UE4 isn't detecting VS2013

When I try to create a new project using code, it always says I don’t have an IDE, but I have VS 2013, and the engine isn’t locating it. I’ve tried changing the PATH variable but still doesn’t work… Any ideias?

Hey Evenilink-

What is the exact error message and at what point do you receive the message? What version of the engine are you working with? If you’re using 4.10 or the 4.11 preview can you try installing Visual Studio 2015? Additionally, if you’re using Visual Studio Express can you instead try using Community?

Cheers

I don’t even get to create a project, since I need to have an IDE to be able to create one. But here’s a picture showing the problem…

I have tried to install VS 2015 Community, and that way I can create a project, but then I get a bunch of erros during the build…

But again, I have have VS 2013, wasn’t that supposed to work?

If you are using engine version 4.10 or 4.11 then you will need to have VS2015 (Download Visual Studio Tools - Install Free for Windows, Mac, Linux) . When installing VS2015, you’ll also want to be sure to check the box under Programming Languages for Visual C++. Let me know if you still have difficulties creating a code project. Also, can you elaborate on the build errors you received when previously building in 2015?

Cheers
