It would be nice to be able to select ports by name because the order of ports can change if you have multiple serial devices attached, in which case referencing by index would not work.

Thanks for your great plugin.

I wonder if there is a call-back function implemented for reading serial messages.
Because I cannot use thread infinite while looping to track the serial message.

Thanks.

I got Unhandled Exception: EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION reading address 0xffffffffffffffff in SerialCom.cpp line 371.
This crash happens occasionally, and randomly. I don't know what the cause is, at all.

I am not familier with Windows API, but my guess is something going wrong on reading file asynchronously. Maybe need to wait until asnc read is done, or use sync read instead?

Using the UE5 EA version of the plugin works for UE 5.0.1 but rebuilding requires .NET Framework 4.8 SDK to work (the general .NET SDK will not work).

Installing .NET SDK:
(assuming you have already have installed Visual Studio Community/Enterprise/Professional)
Launch Visual Studio Installer
Click Modify
Select the tab: Individual components
Check the box: .NET Framework 4.8 SDK (filter by SDK if you need to)
Click the Modify button to confirm changes and install the SDK

The plugin should build properly now when prompted on UE 5 start-up.

I encountered some errors when packaging my project using the SerialCom plugin. I tried putting the plugin in the engine directory at Plugins/MarketPlace, which I saw on the community is a new requirement for UE5, but I still encountered some errors. The error is now stuck at this point. How can I resolve this? I haven't used the newly released update for 5.1.1 yet. Can I simply copy and replace the files to update the plugin? Do I need to reconfigure anything in my blueprints?

Hello, I have spent hours trying to understand and looking for a solution to be able to make the game can be packaged and run on windows. In UE4 I don't have any kind of problem using the SerialCOM plugin and using all blue print in version 4.27. I can open the game in new editor window and it works 100% all comunication. But at the time of packaging I don't know why it doesn't install the plugin and I get a message that it can't find the plugin and that the plugin must be installed and the program closes. I have searched how I can solve this and nothing, I don't know what it can be or what I should do. Any suggestion?

Here is all the data that I have for the problem.

Hello @videofeedback

I have a question about this Plugin. Is it possible to use this Plugin directly in a C++ class? If so, Can you give me some hints? I want this Plugin to read data from Arduino Due over Serial Port.

I appreciate any help you can provide.

Regards
Jemish

Just checking if there'll be an update for UE5.0.3 as I'm constantly getting a "Unable to Rebuild because of a different version" error and I'm unable to downgrade to UE5.0.0.

Any help is appreciated! Thank you!

Hi there,

after I packaged the project and start the .exe file, the error pop up:

I tried delete the saved, Intermediate and build folders but does not work.

By the way, the discord link does not work any more...

Thanks in advance.

Hello,

I am running into an issue where after importing the plugin, if I try to make a C++ class or compile, I get the error that the plugin is not available.

I have checked that the plugin is installed. Before I made the C++ class, I was able to make the Arduino I have work with Blueprints. The moment I made a blank Actor class in C++, I started getting that error.

What's more, now I find myself unable to even open the project.

Is it possible to communicate with several serial ports, instead of one?
I want to interface with multiple Arduino boards from Unreal Engine using this plugin.
