Does anyone know what the Linux support is like these days?
I see lots of linux improvements in the release but last time I tried it was impossible to get my hands on the really obscure linux alpha build.
- cweagans 9y agoThere's a package on AUR that works pretty well (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/unreal-engine https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/unreal-engine). I can't speak to other distros, but this package worked reasonably well on my system.
- vectorEQ 9y agoi have had success with running engine and creating content on linux since 4.12 or so. Seems to work ok, not a lot of dependency issues like i get with unity which relies a lot on distribution specific things like gnome service stuff. https://wiki.unrealengine.com/Building_On_Linux https://wiki.unrealengine.com/Building_On_Linux Following that guide i managed to get it running on debian and gentoo systems. I'm not a pro developer, so i might have not touched all features to test them, but to me it seemed to work fine. Didnt do any programming for it on linux yet, so dont know how to or if its possible to build the code on linux, but the engine itself works fine. blueprints etc. and standard features worked fine too.
