@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.

@pegasusearl The editor needs to be launched from the install dir: $ cd /opt/unreal-tournament/Engine/Binaries/Linux/ $ ./UE4Editor Regarding clang, if someone sends a patch to get 3.9 working I'll update, otherwise, I'll just wait for 4.14. Anyone needing it sooner can build with clang 3.8 from the ALA: https://archive.archlinux.org/packages/c/clang/clang-3.8.1-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz

@undefinedmethod RCL was telling me on github 4.14 will support it when released. Until then master was the best. Do you have those patches? I almost managed to get 4.13 to build with it, but stopped once I started getting issues in third party code.

undefinedmethod commented on 2016-11-02 09:55 (UTC)

4.14 doesnt work out of the box with 3.9. I made some minor changes to source to pull in different thirdparty libs and got it to compile.

zerophase commented on 2016-11-01 19:51 (UTC)

So, Clang 3.9 works in 4.14. I think that should be out in about 2 weeks or so. In the mean time, I almost have a working set of patches up that will allow us to use 3.9 with 4.13.

Clang was just updated to 3.9. Has anyone gotten unreal to build with it? Currently, looking into seeing if there is a fix. Regardless of whether the patch works or not, I'll have improvements for the PKGBUILD.

Is anyone else having issues with the menus being sluggish to respond to mouse input?

zerophase commented on 2016-09-23 20:16 (UTC)

@Dijuna I was trying to reason out why it might be crashing. I believe Unreal through the buildsystem might have Windows dependencies needed by Mono. On an unrelated note has anyone been having the engine crash lately?

Dijuna commented on 2016-09-22 15:05 (UTC)

@zerophase there is no error if I don't change anything in PKGBUILD sooo... my fault. :)
