In addition to being added to the generated Unreal Engine (UE) project under the Config/UnrealBuildTool
folder, UnrealBuildTool (UBT) reads settings from XML config files in the following locations on Windows:
Engine/Saved/UnrealBuildTool/BuildConfiguration.xml
[User]/AppData/Roaming/Unreal Engine/UnrealBuildTool/BuildConfiguration.xml
My Documents/Unreal Engine/UnrealBuildTool/BuildConfiguration.xml
On Linux and Mac, the following paths are used instead:
/Users/[User Name]/.config//Unreal Engine/UnrealBuildTool/BuildConfiguration.xml
/Users/[User Name]/Unreal Engine/UnrealBuildTool/BuildConfiguration.xml
Keep reading to learn more about the following properties, which help to set and customize build configurations.
- bIgnoreOutdatedImportLibraries
Whether to ignore import library files that are out of date when building targets. Set this to true to improve iteration time. By default, we do not bother re-linking targets if only a dependent .lib has changed, as chances are that the import library was not actually different unless a dependent header file of this target was also changed, in which case the target would automatically be rebuilt.
- bPrintDebugInfo
Whether debug info should be written to the console.
- bAllowHybridExecutor
Whether the hybrid executor will be used (a remote executor and local executor).
- bAllowXGE
Whether XGE may be used.
- bAllowFASTBuild
Whether FASTBuild may be used.
- bAllowSNDBS
Whether SN-DBS may be used.
- bAllowTaskExecutor
Whether the experimental async TaskExecutor may be used.
- bUseUBTMakefiles
Enables support for very fast iterative builds by caching target data. Turning this on causes Unreal Build Tool to emit 'UBT Makefiles' for targets when they are built the first time. Subsequent builds will load these Makefiles and begin outdatedness checking and build invocation very quickly. The caveat is that if source files are added or removed to the project, UBT will need to gather information about those in order for your build to complete successfully. Currently, you must run the project file generator after adding/removing source files to tell UBT to re-gather this information.
- MaxParallelActions
Number of actions that can be executed in parallel. If 0 then code will pick a default based on the number of cores and memory available. Applies to the ParallelExecutor, HybridExecutor, and LocalExecutor
- bDebugBuildsActuallyUseDebugCRT
Enables the debug C++ runtime (CRT) for debug builds. By default we always use the release runtime, since the debug version isn't particularly useful when debugging Unreal Engine projects, and linking against the debug CRT libraries forces our third party library dependencies to also be compiled using the debug CRT (and often perform more slowly). Often it can be inconvenient to require a separate copy of the debug versions of third party static libraries simply so that you can debug your program's code.
- bLegalToDistributeBinary
Whether the output from this target can be publicly distributed, even if it has dependencies on modules that are in folders with special restrictions (eg. CarefullyRedist, NotForLicensees, NoRedist).
- bUseInlining
Enable inlining for all modules.
- bUseDebugLiveCodingConsole
Whether to enable support for live coding
- bUseXGEController
Whether the XGE controller worker and modules should be included in the engine build. These are required for distributed shader compilation using the XGE interception interface.
- bUseUnityBuild
Whether to unify C++ code into larger files for faster compilation.
- bForceUnityBuild
Whether to force C++ source files to be combined into larger files for faster compilation.
- bUseAdaptiveUnityBuild
Use a heuristic to determine which files are currently being iterated on and exclude them from unity blobs, result in faster incremental compile times. The current implementation uses the read-only flag to distinguish the working set, assuming that files will be made writable by the source control system if they are being modified. This is true for Perforce, but not for Git.
- bAdaptiveUnityDisablesOptimizations
Disable optimization for files that are in the adaptive non-unity working set.
- bAdaptiveUnityDisablesPCH
Disables force-included PCHs for files that are in the adaptive non-unity working set.
- bAdaptiveUnityDisablesProjectPCHForProjectPrivate
Backing storage for bAdaptiveUnityDisablesProjectPCH.
- bAdaptiveUnityCreatesDedicatedPCH
Creates a dedicated PCH for each source file in the working set, allowing faster iteration on cpp-only changes.
- bAdaptiveUnityEnablesEditAndContinue
Creates a dedicated PCH for each source file in the working set, allowing faster iteration on cpp-only changes.
- bAdaptiveUnityCompilesHeaderFiles
Creates a dedicated source file for each header file in the working set to detect missing includes in headers.
- MinGameModuleSourceFilesForUnityBuild
The number of source files in a game module before unity build will be activated for that module. This allows small game modules to have faster iterative compile times for single files, at the expense of slower full rebuild times. This setting can be overridden by the bFasterWithoutUnity option in a module's Build.cs file.
- DefaultWarningLevel
Default treatment of uncategorized warnings
- DeprecationWarningLevel
Level to report deprecation warnings as errors
- bWarningsAsErrors
Whether to enable all warnings as errors. UE enables most warnings as errors already, but disables a few (such as deprecation warnings).
- UnsafeTypeCastWarningLevel
Indicates what warning/error level to treat unsafe type casts as on platforms that support it (e.g., double->float or int64->int32)
- bUndefinedIdentifierErrors
Forces the use of undefined identifiers in conditional expressions to be treated as errors.
- bRetainFramePointers
Forces frame pointers to be retained this is usually required when you want reliable callstacks e.g. mallocframeprofiler
- bUseFastMonoCalls
New Monolithic Graphics drivers have optional "fast calls" replacing various D3d functions
- NumIncludedBytesPerUnityCPP

- bStressTestUnity

- bDisableDebugInfo
Whether to globally disable debug info generation; see DebugInfoHeuristics.cs for per-config and per-platform options.
- bDisableDebugInfoForGeneratedCode
Whether to disable debug info generation for generated files. This improves link times for modules that have a lot of generated glue code.
- bOmitPCDebugInfoInDevelopment
Whether to disable debug info on PC/Mac in development builds (for faster developer iteration, as link times are extremely fast with debug info disabled).
- bUsePDBFiles
Whether PDB files should be used for Visual C++ builds.
- bUsePCHFiles
Whether PCH files should be used.
- MinFilesUsingPrecompiledHeader
The minimum number of files that must use a pre-compiled header before it will be created and used.
- bForcePrecompiledHeaderForGameModules
When enabled, a precompiled header is always generated for game modules, even if there are only a few source files in the module. This greatly improves compile times for iterative changes on a few files in the project, at the expense of slower full rebuild times for small game projects. This can be overridden by setting MinFilesUsingPrecompiledHeaderOverride in a module's Build.cs file.
- bUseIncrementalLinking
Whether to use incremental linking or not. Incremental linking can yield faster iteration times when making small changes. Currently disabled by default because it tends to behave a bit buggy on some computers (PDB-related compile errors).
- bAllowLTCG
Whether to allow the use of link time code generation (LTCG).
- bPreferThinLTO
When Link Time Code Generation (LTCG) is enabled, whether to prefer using the lighter weight version on supported platforms.

Whether to omit frame pointers or not. Disabling is useful for e.g. memory profiling on the PC.
- bUseMallocProfiler
If true, then enable memory profiling in the build (defines USE_MALLOC_PROFILER=1 and forces bOmitFramePointers=false).
- bUseSharedPCHs
Enables "Shared PCHs", a feature which significantly speeds up compile times by attempting to share certain PCH files between modules that UBT detects is including those PCH's header files.
- bUseShippingPhysXLibraries
True if Development and Release builds should use the release configuration of PhysX/APEX.
- bUseCheckedPhysXLibraries
True if Development and Release builds should use the checked configuration of PhysX/APEX. if bUseShippingPhysXLibraries is true this is ignored.

- bCreateMapFile
