vr hands not working after packaging

I packaged my vr game using the vr template, and the hands will not grab anymore. It works fine in the editor but the packaged game doesn’t work. Any suggestions?

I have this problem as well, did you find a fix?

Figured it out, it needed mouse capture on startup from project settings

I’m having this same problem – in packaged builds ONLY my hands don’t show up and it doesn’t seem that my pawn is being initialized. I’m also oriented backwards and much lower than I am in the non-packaged builds – it seems that the VR setup config isn’t being processed.

I would guess that my pawn actor isn’t being created at all, but all my settings seem correct (default pawn class is set properly).

I checked and I DO have “mouse capture on startup” checked.

Does anyone have any other suggestions?

Anybody else have this happen? I cannot get the VR Template hands to pick up objects after packaging. I have tried " mouse capture on startup" both on and off and neither seem to work. Any other ideas?

Thank you

Yes, I found the cause of this problem (for me at least). The issue was that I had previously renamed/moved my GameMode class. In non-packaged builds this worked fine, but the redirector didn’t function properly for the packaged build, meaning my GameMode class wasn’t used, and thus my player pawn wasn’t created correctly.

The solution was to “Fixup Redirectors” for the folder containing my GameMode.
