# Unreal Engine versions

The Convai Unreal Engine plugin <code class="expression">space.vars.unreal\_plugin\_version</code> uses Unreal Engine <code class="expression">space.vars.unreal\_min\_version</code> as its documented minimum engine version. The plugin manifest declares the same runtime, editor, animation graph, and vision modules for the plugin package. The `ConvaiEditor` window is disabled automatically on UE 5.0 and 5.1; it is available on UE 5.2 and later.

### Supported versions

| UE version    | Runtime (`Convai`) | `ConvaiEditor`     | `ConvaiAnimGraph` | `ConvaiVisionBase` |
| ------------- | ------------------ | ------------------ | ----------------- | ------------------ |
| 5.0           | Supported          | Window unavailable | Supported         | Supported          |
| 5.1           | Supported          | Window unavailable | Supported         | Supported          |
| 5.2 and later | Supported          | Supported          | Supported         | Supported          |

{% hint style="info" %}
The `ConvaiEditor` window requires UE 5.2 or later. On UE 5.0 and 5.1, the editor module logs `ConvaiEditor: Editor UI disabled - requires UE 5.2 or later` and exits the window setup path at startup.
{% endhint %}

### Module load phases

The plugin declares four modules. Their load phases determine when they become active during the editor or game startup sequence.

| Module             | Type           | Load phase       |
| ------------------ | -------------- | ---------------- |
| `Convai`           | `Runtime`      | `PreDefault`     |
| `ConvaiEditor`     | `Editor`       | `PostEngineInit` |
| `ConvaiAnimGraph`  | `UncookedOnly` | `Default`        |
| `ConvaiVisionBase` | `Runtime`      | `Default`        |

`ConvaiAnimGraph` is `UncookedOnly`, which means it is available for editor-time animation graph work but should not be treated as runtime module code in packaged builds.

### Version-specific notes

#### UE 5.0 and 5.1

The `ConvaiEditor` window is unavailable on these versions. Use Blueprint-based runtime setup and Project Settings configuration instead of the in-editor Convai window.

### Next steps

With your engine version confirmed, check which build platforms the plugin supports.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.convai.com/api-docs/plugins-and-integrations/convai-unreal-engine-plugin/compatibility-and-requirements/unreal-engine-versions.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
