Suppoting Visual Studio 2013 for UE3 licensees

August 22, 2014 - 1:58am by yk hwang

Hi,

Will supporting VS2013 be offered for UE3 licensees? Many UE3 licensees(at least those around one) want to migrate to VS2013, but some compiled libraries in FaceFX are only supporting VS2010.

Thank you!

Unfortunately, no, not directly from us. We're very sorry, but Epic Games no longer has a support agreement with us, which means that we can't support Unreal Engine licensees. Because of this, we no longer have UE3 source code access, making it impossible for us to support UE3 licensees even if we want to help in an unofficial capacity. You'll have to ask Epic Games if they plan on supporting VS2013 with their version of FaceFX, as they are responsible for all support, including FaceFX, in UE3.

Thanks for your reply.

Even if it were so, at least, is there any way to offer Fonix lib for VS2013 to us? We had asked Epic Games whether they plan on supporting VS2013 or not, and got an negative answer. The only thing we need is "Fonix static libraries" like you had submitted in Oct.2013(CL#1894796) for supporting VS2012.

Thanks,

Sorry, but no. We cannot support Unreal Licensees while Epic does not have a current support contract. If you would license FaceFX Unlimited directly from us for your game, then you could take the VS2013 library we ship and back port it to the UE3 version very easily.
