  • Unreal UWP

    I was having issues compiling the Windows Universal Platform version of the Unreal Game Engine.

    I kept getting ‘/FU’ requires an argument, and would fail compiling.

    After lots of troubleshooting, it turns out that I just need to downgrade my Windows 10 SDK to version 10.0.14393.795.

    Here is a list of all the current versions of the SDK.

  • Visual Studio 2015 update 2 install

    I recently ran into some issues compiling an older version of the Unreal 4 game engine, and needed to downgrade my Visual Studio 2015 update 3 to update 2.

    During a fresh install, the Visual Studio installer automatically goes out, and downloads the latest updates which was update 3.

    After so scouring the web, I found a Microsoft site that shows how to install previous versions via command line, but here is the grid, just in case the site goes away.
