I am trying to Cast the MyCharacter blueprint from a HUDwidget in order to get my variables. I cannot get any reference to MyCharacter and I have no idea why.

I also have tried to cast it directly in MyGame and it simply doesn’t work. Can anyone help me?

It doesn’t work even if I remove context sensitive.

■■■■, it was only due to my usage of the experimental BP menuing system.

You can read about this issue here:

Normaly enabling “Use New Blueprint Menuing System” should fix it.

This was fixed for 4.6 already.
