BrainFlowUnrealPlugin

Unreal Engine plugin for BrainFlow

Requirements

• Unreal Engine 4.25+
• Visual Studio 2019(for Windows)

Other versions of Visual Studio may also work, but version of Visual Studio used to compile BrainFlow should match version of Visual Studio in Unreal Engine.

Installation

• Compile BrainFlow for your OS, arch, and build type
• Create Plugins folder in your project(skip it if you already have one)
• Copy this folder to your Plugins folder
• Refresh your VS solution, in Unreal Engine Player click File->Refresh Visual Studio Project
• Enable BrainFlowPlugin for your project. In [ProjectName].Build.cs add smth like PublicDependencyModuleNames.AddRange(new string[] { "Core", "CoreUObject", "Engine", "InputCore", "BrainFlowPlugin" });
