- If there are no modern projects, then the mode is ignored, and it's the same old mode. With a mix of modern and legacy, each platform workspace will point to the same legacy projects (not worth retooling Legacy since it's becoming deprecated)
- Added Launch Storyboard support (it will look for uncompiled, compiled, project, and engine fallback locations). Compiled is useful or old storyboards, and for Windows-based (assuming that will work with Modern)
- Other minor things like metadata discovery, etc

- Fixed executable path for programs under Restricted
- Fixed paths when there's an ExeSubDir in the Target
- Allow for codesigning frameworks under programs without a .uproject

- Added UAT params to pass architecture by target type (-editorarchitecture, -clientarchitecture, -serverarchitecture, -programarchitecture). Keeping -specifiedarchitecture for compat, and it will set all the other 4 if they are not specified
- Changed ProjectGenerator to find Program .uproject files (logic was looking for .Target files under the .uproject's directory, which is not the case for Programs)
- Added two params to GetProjectArchitectures:
- bGetAllSupported - used to get all supported architectures, not just the ones currently being built for (needed for XcodeProject to know what architectures to allow in the dropdown)
- bIsDistributionMode - used to get architectures to compile when making distribution builds (probably want to compile all architectures for distro's)
- Removed the MacExports.TargetsAlowedForAppleSilicon, updated XcodeProject code to use the new GetProjectArchitectures()

This QFE addresses multiple issues with Mac builds in UE 5.1:
* Removed Apple Silicon from default build architectures if installed from Epic Games Launcher, as it is not yet supported in UE 5.1 as a default option.
* Apple Silicon native build will be available in UE 5.1 through Epic Games Launcher at a later time, but for now please build from GitHub (URL for linking here - https://github.com/EpicGames/UnrealEngine/tree/5.1)
* Fixed a Mobile Preview crash on Mac when Mobile Deferred is enabled and Preview Rendering Level set to iOS Shader 3.1
* Fixed issue that was preventing movable lights from properly casting light on Mac

VS Code project file generator argument to skip compile commands json files.
VS Code project file generator adds VS Code extension id as configuration provider to configurations.
Add optional implementable funcion for toolchains to return the path to default C++ compiler.
Add rootdirectory= argument to provide root directory if UBT is published to a different directory than standard.

Technically, it did work on the affected platforms, because we could modify a .cpp file and deploy this change, but UBT ran a full build script including compilation, linking and symbol generation, which is unnecessary because only compilation is needed. Thus, it increased the update time from 1-10 sec to 60 seconds (the time is dominated by the link time).
Fixed by adding a special Target to our projects that runs only compilation steps.

#rn fix Sony Live code edit (edit and continue) no longer triggers linking when applying code changes. This way iteration time is significantly reduced.

- Premade "template" plist files for Mac, MacEditor, IOS, and added a PlistMode to choose between updating a template plist (from engine) or using a "baked" out plist that Xcode won't really mess with (this is still a work in progress, as it still needs thought on how to handle IOS premade vs Mac template, etc)
- Updating icons to using xcassets instead of .icns file
- Added post build step for UBT to write out build versions (increments each build) to a .xcconfig for Xcode to put into the .plist, but it reads previous value. Not terrible, but it still needs work
