Advanced Sessions Plugin

[thejturner]

Hey, I was wondering if you have a follow up on this attempt to share, thejturner ?

If anyone else has any advice for running Advanced Sessions on a Mac, I'd like to hear it.

Cheers.

I didn't have any luck building it for the Mac. Since then I've just been using the default session system and connecting clients directly over IP.

@mordentral Regardless of that, I just wanted to know if it was ever intended to be used via C++ as well.

No, its pointless to use it in c++, you are trying to call an async Blueprint node in c++, you should be using native c++ async workflows and directly calling API functions. The plugin exposes things to blueprints that were c++ only before, turning around and trying to use the blueprint implementations of things that are already in c++ is backwards.

@mordentral Hey, I just wanted to know if this is possible or not as I am struggling to get it working. I am trying to make a wrapper for some of the methods in C++ but when I try to use

CreateAdvancedSession

in my Class it is telling me that it can't find the implementation. I did open

UCreateSessionCallbackProxyAdvanced

and it does look like

CreateAdvancedSession

is private but IntelliSense is telling me otherwise. Regardless of that, I just wanted to know if it was ever intended to be used via C++ as well.

@mordentral Ohh ok I though the ping was a bug because I saw that somewhere, thanks for explaining that. About second thing by "own" the game you mean installing Spacewar normally first right? When I start my game it's showing as Spacewar on steam and I thought that was enough for the servers to work. I hosted the server on another PC with different steam account so I could send myself an invite but sill had no luck connecting to it.

Hey, could someone tell me if it's even possible to connect to server which is on Spacewar and not on my own steam app? I tried for some time now but i can't find my server with find session and joining through steam friends list on my other pc doesn't work either. When I tried LAN it showed me my server but it had 9999 ping which I know is a bug in this plugin but is it possible to join it? I can't join any way when connected to steam. Would appreciate if someone could help me figure this out.

Yes it is entirely possible, also the ping isn't a bug "with this plugin", ping isn't provided for steam lobbies, if you implement the in engine steam authentication setup they added in 4.23 or 4.24 they obtain the ping during the authentication process.

Joining through friends won't work if the account doesn't "own" the game, and you won't be able to find your server on the same PC.

You have voice enabled in config settings? IE:

[Voice]
bEnabled=true

[OnlineSubsystem]
bHasVoiceEnabled=true
DefaultPlatformService=Steam

Yes exactly but do i need to use steam for voice chat ?

[mordentral]

Also have been tried 4.25 aswell on epic game launcher version , its exactly same tho

You don't need to touch the registration functions unless you want to unregister someone at some point. Players are automatically registered for voice in engine.

And if start networked voice can't get the voice interface then you likely aren't on a compatible platform for the default VOIP or have overriden it.

Using 4.25 source build idk what causing it

How exactly i fix this issue " Start Networked Voice couldn't get the voice interface "
I do setup game instance and etc . Registered local or remote users aswell . But when i trigger start networked voice via blueprint i get this warning message and seems voice not working .
