It looks like you're getting a crash when trying to open the Unreal Editor - are you sure you downloaded our custom engine version as described in the docs? Is the EngineAssociation in the uproject file set to the correct engine version? Make sure to grab the Aspiring Modder role in https://discord.com/channels/555424930502541343/555442202780762143 if you haven't yet. -# Responding to editorenginemodulecompilefailure triggered by @Jean Michel

Those modules aren't built, and building engine modules is a pain given the oddities of the modding setup I don't remember how to build them, but I know you can edit the .uproject file with a text editor to disable the plugins you enabled

Yes that's what I did to remove it So the project is not planned to use this tool?

Installing this tool: 1/ Install a full version of UE 5.3.2 2/ Copy (and replace) the following folders into your UE-CSS: - C:\Program Files\Epic Games\UE_5.3\Engine\Plugins\Editor\ModelingToolsEditorMode - C:\Program Files\Epic Games\UE_5.3\Engine\Plugins\Experimental\GeometryFlow - C:\Program Files\Epic Games\UE_5.3\Engine\Plugins\Experimental\MeshLODToolset There is no need to generate the project files and compile it in VS since we are modifying UE Enjoy
