Build scripts for native Linux build

This document describes how to build UE4 natively on a Linux host. So far this has only been tested on Debian/Sid and Ubuntu/Precise.

Prerequisites

You will need mono + gmcs installed in order to build:

$ apt-get install gmcs

Building

1. Install all three additional .zip archive, including Optional.zip. Optional.zip is needed since it provides the Linux binaries for PhysX.

2. Build third party libraries:

    $ ./BuildThirdParty.sh.
   

3. Build UnrealBuildTool (UBT) und generate top level Makefile:

    $ ./GenerateProjectFiles.sh
   

4. Build your targets using the top-level Makefile. e.g:

    $ make UE4Client
   

   Or by running Build.sh directly:

    $ Engine/Build/BatchFiles/Linux/Build.sh UE4Client Linux Debug
