Cameras not being affected by HMD movement

Hey guys,

I have two camera actors in my level, and I have a director in Matinee that switches from one to the other. When I launch it, I can see through the cameras on my Rift, but I cannot look around. The cameras stays fixed and is not affected by the movement of my head. I think it has to do with activating, 'Use Controller View Rotation' in the Camera Settings, but I cannot find this option anywhere. Any ideas? Thanks so much.

Jesse

    I don't have the exact variable names handy but you simply need to get a reference to the PlayerCameraManager, drag from it and search for HMD. You'll get the variable you need to turn on for the camera to follow the HMD's orientation. You do NOT want to use 'Use Controller View Rotation' in the Camera Settings.
