[@D4KiRZ]

is there no blueprint only version of that? :O

[@Spacemarine658]

Not really you can get away with basic integration without too much coding but some is required as it's a plugin hitting an SDK

[@ryanjdevlin87]

there are plugins on the market that can do it in blueprints but obvisouly that comes with a price and overhead

[@Spacemarine658]

@@ryanjdevlin87 yeah the price of free is needing to learn a little c++

[@maiworld_]

does this work for mac?

[@Spacemarine658]

I don't believe so only Linux and Windows

[@JoshTVM]

Is there any way to get this to work for UE5.4?

[@Spacemarine658]

It should I'm using it in 5.4 are you getting errors?

[@JoshTVM]

@@Spacemarine658 Yeah, there’s missing modules whenever I launch with it. Tried manually updating the plugin using the BuildPlugin tool but hasn’t worked so far

[@jaizxzx]

can this be used for unreal engine 5.3.2

[@Spacemarine658]

Yep I wrote it in 5.3.2

[@jaizxzx]

@@Spacemarine658 but it is showing this error: The following modules are missing or built with a different engine version: DiscordGame Would you like to rebuild them now?

[@Spacemarine658]

@@jaizxzx hmmm the repo isn't version specific afaik I'd try rebuilding it but if it doesn't work it may be your files are in the wrong place

[@jaizxzx]

@@Spacemarine658 No worries man its working finally apparently there was some issue with the DiscordGame folder so I had to delete the already generated data for the plugin and then replace the files with the official release of the discord sdk in the suitable locations inside the DiscordGame folder and then recompile the project and it worked finally.

@@jaizxzx ah ok that makes sense glad you got it figured out 💪
