@k900:0upti.meK900And start from scratch11:47:43
@k900:0upti.meK9002022 era fhsenvs will not translate well11:47:51
@k900:0upti.meK900And ideally we wouldn't need a fhsenv at all, since the software is source available11:48:57
@mrdev023:matrix.orgmrdev023Yes i know ^^ i replace all codes step by step. Currently, i don't know how configure dotnet environments to build C++ / Dotnet codes I start from scratch In local11:51:07
@mrdev023:matrix.orgmrdev023Dotnet it's only used to configure C++ module. 11:52:55
@woobilicious:matrix.orgwoobiliciousConsidering Sweeny has been openly hostile to Linux, and forces you to use the Windows only epic store launcher to use UE, I wouldn't be surprised if there's no expectation outside of using WSL to build linux binaries, I tried building an old UE game and could never get it working.11:57:02
@k900:0upti.meK900 They do have Linux support for the editor 11:58:33
@woobilicious:matrix.orgwoobiliciousYeah I know, getting it compiled and working is a massive PITA in my experience, especially when it tries to download crap from the internet with dead URLs lol.12:01:16
@mrdev023:matrix.orgmrdev023How wait. We have a official Linux build now12:03:10
@woobilicious:matrix.orgwoobiliciousmy current Unreal checkout is 86GB lol...How the fuck is it larger then Windows.12:03:35
@mrdev023:matrix.orgmrdev023https://www.unrealengine.com/fr/linux12:04:45
@woobilicious:matrix.orgwoobiliciousOh I see they started releasing actual linux builds about 6 months ago12:06:37
@woobilicious:matrix.orgwoobiliciousoh no that list keeps going back in time...great UI epic...good luck finding UE3 or 4 lol12:07:47
@woobilicious:matrix.orgwoobilicious mrdev023: but yeah you probably just want the mono package to get started with dotnet stuff. 12:12:43
@mrdev023:matrix.orgmrdev023

Okay, what is better between build Unreal Engine source or patch Already built Linux versions ? Both source is not publicly accessible.

  • Github source require user to ask for developer access to Unreal Engine source
  • Binary require to download manually the package from the website
12:20:44
@k900:0upti.meK900Build from source12:20:56
@mrdev023:matrix.orgmrdev023Okay thx 12:21:30
@mrdev023:matrix.orgmrdev023This file https://github.com/mrdev023/nixpkgs/blob/add-unreal-engine-5/pkgs/games/ue5/cdn-deps.nix , do you know how is generated ? It's seems to be use to bypass https://github.com/mrdev023/nixpkgs/blob/add-unreal-engine-5/pkgs/games/ue5/fhsenv.nix#L20 with "./Engine/Binaries/DotNET/GitDependencies/linux-x64/GitDependencies" because it need network access13:19:02
