GameUserSettings failing to cast

Development Programming & Scripting

Fatal error: [File:D:\BuildFarm\buildmachine_++depot+UE4-Releases+4.5\Engine\Source\Runtime\CoreUObject\Private\Templates\Casts.cpp] [Line: 11]
Cast of GameUserSettings /Engine/Transient.GameUserSettings_0 to SmashyGameUserSettings failed

The above error causes a break when i try to launch my game from within the editor. VS2013 compiles everything correctly with no errors or warnings, i can edit content and do basically anything i like within the editor. As soon as i hit play, the program breaks to the above.

I’ve isolated it (i think) to the fact that SmashyGameUserSettings is not returning a value (says it can’t read memory) for the variables GraphicsQuality and bIsLanMatch.

SmashyGameUserSettings source: http://pastie.org/private/zpd2kkqqoenzrtbtes0e8a

SmashyGameUserSettings header: http://pastie.org/private/k8stg8spgajltne39yfkw

As you can see from the above files, both those variables are definitely being set. So i’m not sure why they’re returning null.

#DefaultEngine.ini Config Settings

Are you telling UE4 to use your custom class via config file?

[/Script/Engine.Engine]
UserSettingsClassName=/Script/YourGame.YourUserSettings

I had done this two days ago, but i’d made a typo in that line and didn’t find it until last night. Thanks for helping!

Just to update this thread, it’s: “GameUserSettingsClassName”
