Hey guys,
I recently setup a Perforce server for our team. Everyone except one is able to login to Perforce Source control through the editor. Opening the visual client and opening a connection works, however connecting through UE returns the following error: ‘Unicode clients require a unicode enabled server’.
Does anyone have an idea what may be causing this?
Hey guys,
we managed to fix the problem. At first we tried to edit the environment variables on my colleague’s workstation through the Perforce client, but that did not work. We then decided to take a look at the variables through regedit and set the CHARSET variable to none (it used to be auto). This fixed his problem.
I’ll mark this question as closed.
Wrong answer.
Reviving this because the other user is correct that the accepted answer advocates a poor practice. You’re better off resolving this by setting it explicitly in your p4 environment settings or your p4config:
p4 set P4CHARSET=none
