Hello <@465550353807441926> Error you are getting must be due to the binaries not generating. All you need do is modify a line of code in the build.cs file in convai plugin directory. Please set the bUsePrecompiled = true. This will allow binaries to be generated for windows platform.

Hi <@465550353807441926>, Mriganka meant to set it false instead, sorry for the confusion

but why do i have to change the variable anyways?

Reply by mrd7041 | 2024-01-17 13:21:59

<@465550353807441926> we already ship with binaries generated so user does not have to complie everytime.

The variable is set to true to protect the plugin binaries from being rebuilt and possibly corrupted, but when you set it to false you’re then able to build

Ah, thats what i thought to
