I’m not sure when it all started. I believe it could have been by the time I updated the engine from 4.9 to 4.10 and visual studio comunity 13 to 15. I’m getting errors that keep preventing me from cooking and packaging my project. A couple of days ago it was working fine. I’m going to attach both errors. Please, can someone help me find out the problem?
Hello,
I am seeing this error: MainFrameActions: Packaging (Windows (64-bit)): WindowsPlatform.get_Compiler: WARNING: Visual C++ 2015 toolchain does not appear to be correctly installed. Please verify that “Common Tools for Visual C++ 2015” was selected when installing Visual Studio 2015.
Did you ensure that you selected the Common Tools for C++ option when you installed Visual Studio 2015? If not, you’ll have to go back in and modify the installation to include that content.
Have a great day
Hello, Sean!
Thank you so much for the reply! I’ll look into it and I will post here the results asap. I probably did the “express” install or something like that so I’m not really sure I installed all of it’s features.
But there’s this thing you see - I can cook and package all other projects just fine. The issue is only happening inside that one project. It all started… I’m not exacly when, but I’m sure it was soon. I know this because I do have a packaged version of the project on my notebook that I used to look for collision problems. I know I’ve created it just a couple of months ago tops.
I’m just wondering here: “why did that became an issue just now?”. What do you think?
Cheers.
You mentioned updating to 4.10 from 4.9. The reason you would have started having this issue is because 4.10 relies on Visual Studio 2015, and if the necessary components were not installed, then anything requiring Visual Studio would not be able to function.
Let me know if installing the C++ content helps.

Hello, Sean. I keep having this issue. A lot of people seem to have encountered this problem with the “AutomationTool”. I’m not using code so I can’t use the solution I found.
I already installed the Common Tools for C++!
Ok. It is solved. Thanks for the help, Sean. I’ve tracked the problem - it was my map file! It is strange but something was wrong with it. I deleted all maps and loaded a backup from outside my projects folder. You can do this by adding a map to be loaded if no other one is found. There is an option in project settings to do that. Now it’s working. I don’t know why or what happened… but it is fine. Cheers.
