Answered: Unreal and Bridge LiveLink error

Eistrom

Hi

I'm trying to setup a LiveLink for Unreal 4.20 with Bridge.

I get the following Error " Could Not send data over port 13428 " when trying to install.

The Export says successful but then the mentioned error show up.

I think that is why I don't get the "Green M" button in Unreal.

I've set dir. to E:/Games/Epic Games/UE_4.20/

What do I miss ?

I'm still getting the same error "could not export over port 13428" Why is that. Is there not an update of bridge for 4.22 yet? How do I install?

Synaesthesia

Unreal 4.22 isn't supported yet, but it will be soon - keep an eye out for more details!

Hi, The same thing happened to me until I chose the following route:

\Epic Games\UE_4.x\Engine\Plugins

Yes, alessiogarcai was right.
You must install pugin in your engine version folder (\Engine\Plugins), and then you should open plugins list in Unreal (Edit->Plugins), select Buld-In category and then search "UnrealEnginePython" and enable it.
Should work.

You shouldn't need to do that with native UE 4.22 support being included with the latest version of Bridge.

Pay attention that I could solve it

I run on unreal 4.24

1) Install the Bridge normally, open it as admin (I did it this way but maybe that part is not necessary)

2) In the Bridge program, look for any texture and put the "unreal engine" box to press the download button.

3) With this step the third tab of "export" will appear, here is the same as the previous comments explained, you put your unreal, version 4.24 (in my case use this) and the location of the plugins folder.

* At this point you should not put export.

4) You go to the folder of your plugins on your pc before starting unreal and you must delete the folder called "support" (This generates the startup problem with the error).

5) Open unreal 4.24 and the problem will not appear when starting

6) Inside you will see the Megascans button in your work bar

This worked for me after many attempts seeing that I created the error in the pluins folder, it should work, luck
