I am unable to complie UE4.2 with VS 2013. What could be the problem? Please help me!

Did you generate the project files?

I have problem with compiling.
I always get error, and i couldn’t find any useful tips on the net that’s why i opened this thread.

This is the error list I got.

I have Ultimate 64Bit.
I have installed Win 7 SP1, as it requires.
I have a VS 2013 ultimate with update 2 (registered). I started it with ‘run as admin’ mode.
I have installed all of the files on the VS 2013 installer disk, from the "packages\Win81_SDK" all the 21 installer files. except 2 as it didn’t allow me to install. So I installed 19.(I now i don’t need all of them, but i didn’t now witch is important and i didn’t want to miss any.
I have installed June 2010 DirectX runtime.
I have put all the folders together and I put it into the root of C: and I tried on D: Drive. I think I tried C/programfiles as well. Were did you put the “UnrealEngine” folder?
I have set the menu in visual studio, as the video shows on youtube. - YouTube
Then just after this, I clicked on “Built” It started but after a while (about 30-60seconds) I got several error, and didn’t make me the files to start UE4.

I read that maybe i have to change some line in some file, but i don’t exactly now what. Did you have to do anything like it?
And I read in youtube comment, it will use 17 Gb after compiled UE4. Is it true?

Please somebody help me!

Yes of course.
I had no problem with that. I could open the project with VS2013. I had problem only with the Building. And i got those errors.

The ‘GenerateProjectFiles’ file could make the UE4 and UE4.v12 file, if you thought these as the generated project files.
I could open that with visual studio, set the menu as seen int the video and I got these errors.

But error 1083 means files are missing, VS can’t find files to compile. I bet your VS project files are not being generated or VS can’t access them for N reason.

Hi halowarss,

I just wanted to make sure that you have downloaded the correct dependencies. Did you get the ones specifically for 4.2? All of the dependency files for the different versions have the same names, so you need to make sure you get the ones for the Engine version you are trying to build. If you accidentally downloaded the ones for 4.1, you will not be able to compile the Engine and will see error messages similar to the ones you are currently seeing.

Also, you can try re-installing the Windows SDK to make sure everything is up-to-date.
