Rust¶

Rust is required if you want to build UE4SS from source, which is part of the C++ mod workflow later in this guide. You don't need Rust for simple Lua mods.

Install Rust¶

1. Go to the official Rust install page: https://www.rust-lang.org/tools/install

2. Download and run rustup-init.exe - I chose the 64-bit option.

3. When prompted, choose the default installation option.

4. When the installer finishes, open a command prompt and run these commands to check everything is installed correctly:

   rustc --version
   cargo --version
   

If both commands print a version number, Rust is installed and ready.
