Initial Project Setup

This guide covers the essential steps to install and configure the Gen AI China 🇨🇳 🔥 plugin in your project.

---

1. Installing the Plugin

First, you need to add the plugin to your Unreal Engine installation.

1. Acquire Gen AI China from the Fab.com marketplace.
2. Open the Epic Games Launcher, navigate to your Library, and find the plugin.
3. Click “Install to Engine” and select the engine version your project uses.

Once installed, open your project and enable the plugin via the Edit > Plugins menu. You can find it under the “Installed” or “Generative AI” category. Restart the editor when prompted.

2. For Blueprint-Only Projects

If your project is Blueprint-only, no additional configuration is required. Once the plugin is enabled, all of its functionality will be available in the Blueprint editor. You can proceed directly to Getting API Keys.

3. For C++ Projects

If you plan to interact with the plugin using C++, you must add it as a dependency in your project’s build file.

Add the Module to Your Build File

1. Locate your project’s build file, named YourProjectName.Build.cs, in the Source/YourProjectName directory.
2. Open the file and add "GenAIChineseModels" to the PublicDependencyModuleNames array.

Example: YourProject.Build.cs

using UnrealBuildTool;

public class YourProject : ModuleRules
{
    public YourProject(ReadOnlyTargetRules Target) : base(Target)
    {
        PCHUsage = PCHUsageMode.UseExplicitOrSharedPCHs;

        PublicDependencyModuleNames.AddRange(new string[] {
            "Core",
            "CoreUObject",
            "Engine",
            "InputCore",
            "GenAIChineseModels"  // <-- ADD THIS MODULE
        });
    }
}

After editing, right-click your .uproject file and select “Generate Visual Studio project files” to update your solution.
