Hello,

Is there a method in the steam API of UE4 to get the PlayerName from its SteamID (without having the player to be in the same steam lobby).

Thanks

  • In game, APlayerState::PlayerName = Steam Player Name.

  • Outside a match you can only get names from the WebAPI and players must be friends:

    SteamHandle->SteamFriends()->GetFriendPersonaName(SteamHandle->SteamFriends()->GetFriendFromSourceByIndex(APlayerState::PlayerId,INDEX)));

Ok, have to find another way then. Thank you for your reply
