@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).

Hey guys, Unreal finally installed for me (such a beast). BUt when trying to launch /opt/unreal-engine/Engine/Binaries/Linux/UE4Editor I get the following error on a popup dialog:

Cannot find a compatible Vulkan device or driver. Try updating your video driver to a more recent version and make sure your video card supports Vulkan.

I have nvidia-utils installed, do I need a specific vulkan package?

I can run the other exe, /opt/unreal-engine/Engine/Binaries/Linux/UnrealFrontend

@zerophase, sorry I already deleted it :(

@shatur What happens in the logs when the engine crashes for you?

@zerophase, sorry for big delay. With this patched version, I can’t create / open projects in C++, the engine crashes (Blueprint projects work) :(

Also by creating PerforceBuild.txt you not only disabled the download of the toolchain, but also enabled Perforce build, which is intended for sharing the cache between computers.

I suggest using the provided Clang. Unreal Engine downloads a lot of dependencies that exists in repos (OpenSSL, GoogleTest, zlib, etc.), so adding +1 does not matter, but will provide stability.

Ok, the ispc issue does not impact us yet. It only seems to matter for 4.25.

UPDATE: Going to be a little git longer. Getting compile errors that do not occur with the latest dev build.

@zerophase, good news, I can test it.

seems to work with the version of ispc in community. I can have a patch up tomorrow if anyone wants to test if everything still works with our version of the engine.
