@juancarlospaco this is easily done on your own system, not in a PKGBUILD, given that building packages runs as root:

sudo groupadd unrealengine-users
sudo usermod -aG unrealengine-users (your-username)
sudo chown -R root:unrealengine-users /opt/unreal-engine
sudo chmod -R 775 /opt/unreal-engine

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 777 permissions. 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).

@eyupgurel @niqingliang2003 The issue is described in the wiki, just disable index file content in the KDE file search options. — https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Unreal_Engine_4#Random_freeze_under_KDE

@eyupgurel @niqingliang2003 I have no problem running the software, at first it was badly scaled on my 1080p monitor, so I changed high DPI scaling to off. Now i t looks as it should. I'm running i3, and have no problem, vkcube also run without hesitation. I'm on NVIDIA Optimus laptop with 930MX.

@eyupgurel same issue! I found it may be related with kde/nvidia. I'm using kde/nvidia1070, the command vkcube has some lag. 1. when enabled compositor + running glxgears, window has lag when close with lcd's edge. 2. vkcube report 60fps, but has lag obviously. 3. UE4Editor fps will drop <10 every 3seconds.

Do not install 4.23.1 UE4Editor freezes intermittently. Impossible to use in production.

@niqingliang2003 Thanks and nice work, I was able to compile and added your patches.

I don't know of a way to skip stripping on some files. I think those binaries are used in cross-compilation, when I tried to delete them before it made the editor crash.

@tomsk I also get that error, but I'm not sure if they dropped support for cards without Vulkan or if we could add a patch for opengl support.

niqingliang2003 commented on 2019-12-02 06:49 (UTC)

can we skip to strip the mac/windows binaries? or even don't install mac/windows binaries?

Does anybody have this problem? https://answers.unrealengine.com/questions/937507/cannot-start-unreal-engine-4-in-linux.html
