@Kobe_Staude the engine is big, there's nothing I can do about that, so yes unless you have external storage, in which case, there are configuration options to assist with that
@amperotactico read the pins
@nic-hartley That shouldn't be happening, since I had several people test this extensively already to avoid problems like this, but I'll review it again to see if I can find what might be causing it.
Hi, I just installed the engine and tried to create a new project. I got this error message:
"An error occurred while trying to generate project files.
Running /opt/unreal-engine/Engine/Build/BatchFiles/Linux/Build.sh -projectfiles -project="/home/alberto/Repositories/UnrealEngine/Learning/Learning.uproject" -game -engine -progress Setting up bundled DotNet SDK chmod: changing permissions of '/opt/unreal-engine/Engine/Build/BatchFiles/Linux/../../../Binaries/ThirdParty/DotNet/6.0.302/linux/dotnet': Operation not permitted"
Any idea how I could resolve this?
I can't get this to work. With a clean git pull and makepkg -sirc, it errors out partway through on:
cp: cannot stat '$REPO/src/unreal-engine/LocalBuilds/Engine/Linux/*': No such file or directory
(the $REPO is just marking the path of the repo, somewhere in ~/Downloads, not literally in the output.)
There's a big scary red line just a bit further up:
Unhandled exception: One or more errors occurred. (The type initializer for 'UnrealBuildBase.Unreal' threw an exception.)
(I tried a bit more fiddling, e.g. creating that directory or putting a file in, but it just ends up hanging later on, with no error message and no CPU usage. I figure it's probably caused by the same problem.)
Got the following error when I got to installing the unreal-engine 5.1.0-25 package:
error: Partition / too full: 35238678 blocks needed, 1522864 blocks free
Will I really need to allocate 134 GBs of root space?
Make sure you have vulkan-icd-loader and vulkan-intel installed; your CPU's iGPU supposedly supports Vulkan, so I'm not sure why else you'd have this issue.
pkgrel=25 Works, thanks to everyone that contributed!!.
Good, then; I added you to the contributors list, by the way, for helping out with the packaging function
That seems to work. Both with git / makepkg and with yay.
Sorry about that, I misinterpreted something I read on how to prevent a Bash SC2115 warning:

@juancarlospaco this is easily done on your own system, not in a PKGBUILD, given that building packages runs as root:
Permission issues like this are already mentioned on the UE Arch wiki page: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Unreal_Engine_4#Installing_from_the_AUR
This is a user system problem; I already did what I could without needing users to do the above by giving the
777permissions. If it still gives you trouble, you'll have to use the example to solve it or change the install location to somewhere you have user permissions by default (as I cannot do this for you).zerophase commented on 2021-05-27 08:15 (UTC) (edited on 2021-05-30 08:41 (UTC) by zerophase)
Will update to 5.0 when it is released.
