Rebuild Enlighten from source

After you modify Engine source code you can build the editor or game using UnrealBuildTool as usual.
When upgrading to an unsupported platform SDK, you may also need to rebuild the Enlighten libraries against the new SDK. In rare cases you might need to make changes to the Enlighten libraries.
You can find the Enlighten library source code within the UE4 third party source folder:

Engine/Source/ThirdParty/Enlighten

Modify and rebuild Enlighten libraries

To build and install the Enlighten libraries and tools required by UE4:

1. In a Windows command prompt window, execute:

   GenerateProjectFiles.bat
   cd Engine\Source\ThirdParty\Enlighten
   BuildAndInstallEnlighten.bat 

   This scripts returns an exit code of zero if the build succeeded. Otherwise, an error is printed in the console output. 

   When you run GenerateProjectFiles.bat, Engine\Source\ThirdParty\Enlighten\EnlightenBuildConfig.xml is generated for the installed platform SDK versions detected by UnrealBuildTool.

   If you build Enlighten UE4 with Visual Studio 2019, Enlighten libraries are compiled with the MSVC v14.29 toolset. Install the Visual Studio component which includes the MSVC 14.29 compiler.

   If you build Enlighten UE4 with Visual Studio 2017, Enlighten libraries are compiled with the MSVC v14.16 toolset. Install the Visual Studio component which includes the MSVC 14.16 compiler.

   To build Enlighten, you must install the June 2010 DirectX SDK

2. If iOS libraries are required, in a MacOS Terminal window, execute:

   GenerateProjectFiles.sh
   cd Engine/Source/ThirdParty/Enlighten
   chmod +x BuildAndInstallEnlighten.sh
   sh BuildAndInstallEnlighten.sh

   Requires XCode 12.5.1 or later

3. Build the UE4 editor or game using UnrealBuildTool.
