[SOLVED] Can't find the Sessions with Unreal blueprint nodes.
Hello, I have been trying for a while now to get Unreal to find Oculus sessions that I create but nothing I do seem to make it work and I am not sure why at all. Is this meant to work with blueprints? I have tried with both simple default Pools, Advanced Pools and Custom Pools. But never got a valid return from the FindMatchmakingSessions blueprint node. I get Oculus user ID's fine so I know the basic setup is correct. Also I manage to create the session fine. I just never seem to be able to find the sessions, allowing me to then join them. This is one of the ways I have tried: gets me: (note, the 'join' in the screengrab here is by the id that did the create session, ie an auto self join) But then I don't get any data doing: We are using UE4.18.1 Is there anyone that can clarify how this is meant to work? I need to get that 'Result' array so that I can chose and feed into the 'Join Session'. Cheers Fredrik UPDATE: The magic combination seemed to be to use a 'Custom' pool and also on the session start do a: 'open mapname?listen'. I then managed to find the session with the above 'T' command although it seemed a bit flakey. Only works on second 'T' run for example. [I will move the below bit to a new post with a more fitting header] The problem is still that the second player doesn't get moved to the map opened by the first player (in listen mode). It was suggested to me that I should be able to do : 'open oculusIdOfListenServerPlayer.oculus' to make the second player join, but that is not working. Does anyone know how I can do the joining using blueprints?
Cannot join an Oculus session: "Cannot map local player to unique net ID"
I'm trying to create and join an Oculus session. I already succeeded in creating a session by using the Null and the Steam subsystems, but the Oculus' one seems to be more complex. Rather than using the Unreal's CreateSession and FindSessions blueprint functions I used the Oculus' CreateSession and FindMatchmakingSessions. These one are my Blueprint blocks for creating and searching/joining sessions. The session is created and found correctly (the Oculus matchmaking pool named "ciao" is the one configured on my Oculus dashboard). My problem is the JoinSession function, which actually is the one provided by Unreal, because the Oculus sdk does not provide an equivalent method, so when I call it I receive a warning message "Cannot map local player to unique net ID". How can I join a session by using blueprints? I'm also trying to create a Blueprint function library and writing the JoinSession with C++, but I don't know how to call the OnlineInterface::JoinSession method correctly. Does someone has an example of code on how to join an Oculus session?
