I have created a project on unreal engine 4.5, I wanted to know how to set an image as my background in unreal engine 4.

Any help would be appreciated.

Can you be more specific? Where do you want to use a background image?

The background image is to cover the background of the game.
Just to attach a simple image as a background.
I have attached an image below.

I dont know if this is exactly what you are looking for, but I think that you are thinking of adding an image to the HUD.

I don’t have a lot of experience with HUDs, but I think that you do a draw image in your HUD class and than add some scalibiy resolution. To support resolutions.

I hope that this is what you are looking for.

I’ll follow up when I have my computer.

The reason why I ask is this. If you are going to use it as background of 2D game then you can use Paper2D or place it as a material on a simple plane. As Guapo’s said you can use HUD but it is used for UI.

A step by step guide as to how to change the GUI would be needed.

I will also try and looking for tutorials on youtube.
