Plugin does not work in UE4 4.24 #1

It doesn`t work.It says to rebuild the source or something like that. Do i REALLY need to have 4.22?

SlawekNowy commented 4 years ago

I played with this on 4.24. I got it to run on Linux. Also Changed how the Libraries are handled.

I'll try with Windows soon enough.

SlawekNowy commented 4 years ago

Why i changed lib handling? Beacuse the upstream violates UE4 EULA. VTFLib has LGPL license (strong, viral, copyleft). Which means I can such library link only dynamically. This plugin essentialy links them statically.

SlawekNowy commented 4 years ago

For this same reason this repo (or any UE4 Project or Plugin for that matter) cannot be licensed under any of the GNU licenses.

It doesnt work for me on 4.24.3 and im on Windows.I just dont know what to do.Ill try again and post back if it doesn`t,if you can fix (or at least try to fix the issue)

Nope,still experiencing the issue Here it is: Missing (AssetImporterSource) Modules The following modules are missing or built with a different engine version: HL2Runtime HL2Editor

Would you like to rebuild them? Yes / No

After clicking yes and waiting a brief moment this is what i get

Error

(AssetImporterSource) could not be compiled.Try rebuilding from source manually AssetImporterSource is the name of my blank project.Is it because i have chosen blueprints instead of c++? How do i fix this?
thomasfn commented 4 years ago

My apologies, I didn't get any notifications about this issue. I'm going to be updating the plugin to 4.25.0 soon.

@SlawekNowy can you detail what exactly you changed to link VTFLib dynamicly?

SlawekNowy commented 4 years ago

Sure. I built them before I build the Plugins. This guide was extremely helpful. The source to library itself landed in Source/ThirdParty. One note however. In linux link to Clang's C++ STL rather than gcc's.

SlawekNowy commented 4 years ago

I'd show my fork but I removed it during the cleanup. I don't have a local copy too.

SlawekNowy commented 4 years ago

I can however show you an example: This Ogg module used by UE4

thomasfn commented 4 years ago

Nice, I'll have a go at doing that, thanks.

thomasfn commented 4 years ago

Plugin has since been updated to support 4.25 (I'm not interested in supporting versions earlier than latest). VTFLib issue moved to #2.
