1>C:\Users\Tim.Lincoln\Documents\Unreal Projects\TestSceneCapComp1\Binaries\Win64\UE4Editor-TestSceneCapComp1.dll : fatal error LNK1120: 5 unresolved externals
Steps to Reproduce
  1. Create a new project using the Code First Person template, no starter content.
  2. Build the project in Visual Studio.
  3. Open the project in the Editor.
  4. Add a new code class to the project derived from SceneCaptureComponent2D.
  5. Build the project in Visual Studio.

RESULT:
The build will fail with numerous unresolved external symbol errors.

EXPECTED:
The build completes successfully.
