Set your solution configuration to Development Editor and your solution platform to Win64, then right click on the UE target and select Build. Load the project into Visual Studio by double-clicking on the UE5.sln file. It should take less than a minute to complete. Run GenerateProjectFiles.bat to create project files for the engine. Subsequent checkouts only require incremental downloads and will be much quicker. Click More info, then Run anyway to continue.Ī clean download of the engine binaries may take some time to complete. On Windows, a warning from SmartScreen may appear. This will download binary content for the engine, as well as installing prerequisites and setting up Unreal file associations.
Open your source folder in Explorer and run Setup.bat. Refer to the Setting Up Visual Studio page to ensure that you have downloaded all of the necessary VS components for working with UE.
Third-party zip utilities don't normally do this.Īll desktop editions of Visual Studio can build UE, including Visual Studio Community, which is free for small teams and individual developers. The built-in Windows zip utility will mark the contents of zip files downloaded from the Internet as unsafe to execute, so right-click the zip file and select 'Properties.' and 'Unblock' before decompressing it. If you'd prefer not to use Git, you can get the source with the 'Download ZIP' button on the right. To use Git from the command line, see the Setting up Git and Fork a Repo articles. Install GitHub for Windows then fork and clone our repository. Refer to our Setting Up Visual Studio to ensure that you have a version of Visual Studio that is compatible with your desired version of Unreal Engine. You can improve the engine and help the whole Unreal community by submitting your fixes and features back to Epic. If you find a bug that we haven't fixed yet, but that is crucial to your project, you can unblock your project by making the fix in your own version of the source code and rebuilding your own binaries. You will get access to all the latest features and bug fixes that Epic engineers make every day, practically up to the minute.
If you'd rather simply download and install the binary version of Unreal, read our Installing Unreal Engine documentation to learn how to Get Unreal. However, you may find that having access to the source code can be extremely valuable for you and your project. You are not required to download the source code to work with Unreal Engine. Have associated your GitHub account with your Unreal Engine account as described on the UE on GitHub page. Before you can access the repository at, you must:
