Enabling Unreal engine plugins?

Hi all, I want to play around with building a Satisfactory mod that uses midi. It looks like Unreal Engine has a plugin system and a Midi plugin - https://dev.epicgames.com/documentation/en-us/unreal-engine/midi-in-unreal-engine However, when I try to enable this, I get an error that the plugin isn't compatible with the version of the engine and I need to rebuild it. I haven't figured out how to do that. The Satisfactory modding tutorials I've done so far have been absolutely fantastic. However, I haven't found one that covers enabling other UE plugins. If I can't get that to work, I could probably write my own midi plugin instead, but it feels like that would take a lot more time than if I could use an off the shelf solution.

If the plugin isn't enabled by default, chances are that you don't have it in the game either. So you probably need to package the MIDI plugin as if it were a mod I don't remember what exactly needs to be done for engine plugins, though. Docs say something, can't find the page atm
