@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).

Will update to 5.0 when it is released.

How i can connect my github account to make this PKGBUILD working ?

@phcerdan Yes, this is expected, because it's a gigantic package. You could try disabling the compression by changing the following line in /etc/makepkg.conf:
PKGEXT='.pkg.tar.xz' to
PKGEXT='.pkg.tar'

It takes more time to compress the package with xz than to compile it. Is this the expected behavior?

Creating package "unreal-engine"...
  -> Generating .PKGINFO file...
  -> Generating .BUILDINFO file...
  -> Adding install file...
  -> Generating .MTREE file...
  -> Compressing package...

top: 

  PID USER      PR  NI    VIRT    RES    SHR S  %CPU  %MEM     TIME+ COMMAND
11591 foo       20   0  107572  97532   2212 R 100.0   0.3  53:53.63 xz

I will try to use multi-thread xz, as showed here: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/makepkg#Use_other_compression_algorithms

@ruestique Yeah, it's the Radeon causing the issues with Vulkan. Getting your hardware information to epic through a bug report might get the issue resolved.

It's probably a minor bug with Unreal that basically amounts to a branch not being programmed for.

@zerophase

You're on Arch

yep

and just run makepkg -sric

yeah, I also thinking about installing ue4 without pacman

opening unreal

with -vulkan flag, with -opengl works fine

vulkan-icd-loader and vulkan-radeon are installed, vc: HD 7950

@moadib yeah thanks mate =) I guess maybe I need some kernel tweaks ¯_(ツ)_/¯

moadib commented on 2018-11-10 05:12 (UTC)

@ruestique try to launch with -opengl4 parameter, from 4.21 unreal engnine uses Vulkan renderer by default

zerophase commented on 2018-11-10 04:59 (UTC)

@ruestique You're on Arch, and not Manjaro / others, right? Try downloading the package, and just run makepkg -sric.

When does the crash occur? Is it from opening unreal or opening a project?

ruestique commented on 2018-11-09 23:29 (UTC)

The paths are messed up again -_- but now it's causing crash at the start, any ideas?

VulkanRHI::vkEnumeratePhysicalDevices(Instance, &GpuCount, nullptr) failed, VkResult=-3 at /home/chibo/HGST/.cache/makepkg/unreal-engine/src/UnrealEngine/Engine/Source/Runtime/VulkanRHI/Private/VulkanRHI.cpp:453 with error VK_ERROR_INITIALIZATION_FAILED

where no any files in the cache folder obviously ~_~

zerophase commented on 2018-10-24 00:01 (UTC)

4.20.3 works with clang 7. There seems to be an issue with opening projects. Looks like Unreal automatically skips recompiling project versions for the current engine. Not sure how to approach this.

Please more info about "Otherwise add -Wno-constant-logical-operand -Wno-return-std-move -Wno-self-assign-field -Wno-self-assign-overloaded". Where exactly that shall be added?
