Hello, I’m trying to make a packaged project work on third person’s mac, but he’s catching this issue:
Contents/UE4/Engine/GlobalShaderCache-SF_METAL_SM4.bin’ is missing.
Your application is built to load COOKED content. No COOKED content was found; This usually means you did not cook content for this build.
It also may indicate missing cooked data for a shader platform(e.g., OpenGL under Windows): Make sure your platform’s packaging settings include this Targeted RHI.
Alternatively build and run the UNCOOKED version instead.
I’m pretty sure all content is cooked and provided with a package.
I’m also kinda sure GlobalShaderCache is an opengl thing, so it could not be hooked up to a project somehow.
Any ideas what can I do with package / person can do with mac?
-opengl parameter in terminal, or something?
Or should I do something special to include openGL cooked data?
Project also works well on my mac, so I’m not really sure what to do here.
I have exactly the same issue as you, and although running the game with -opengl worked, editing the project settings to enable all opengl stuff did not work. Did you ever find a solution that didn’t force the person to run the packaged game in a special way?
Hey.
For some reason I can’t run a game without -opengl flag anymore neither.
Still, I’ll need a double-click executable next week so I’ll have to find a new way out.
I’ll report here as soon as I’ll have any success with it.
