@Hey , by any can you (or anyone else!) expose EHMDDeviceType::Type (.unrealengine.com/latest/INT/API/Runtime/HeadMountedDisplay/EHMDDeviceType__Type/index.html) to blueprints? would help immensely to a whole lot of VR developers!
What functions do you need it for that are already exposed to BP, or what exactly do you nee to do with it?
I can help but I need more info 
I canāt expose stuff in the engine, but I can make my own version that ties into the requiste BP functions, or write my own BP functions to call what you need, just need a function list
@Basically a function that detects what HMD the user is currently using. would be beneficial for people developing for both the Rift and the Vive (along side the GearVR). There is currently a function in UE4 that does , however, it is solely based in C++, and not exposed to blueprints for some reason.
Almost there, I am just compiling the binaries now
New BP Node ~ Get Current Head Mounted Display Device, When You Have Multiple!
Dear Community,
At the request of @SaviorNT and for the benefit of you lovely VR enthusiasts who have more than one VR headset that you are testing with, I present to you a BP node to let you know which type of headset is currently hooked up to the computer!
Please keep in mind that Iāve added my own addition, which is the None option, can happen if you donāt have any device hooked up and could help with debugging, especially in packaged games.

Hey, pluginās quite amazing! 
Iām using your node to get the available resolutions for the display adapter and while it works, I always get duplicates. For example 800x600 will show up 16 times in my dropdown menu 
Iām not including refresh rates. Do you reckon happens because I have a more than 1 monitor?
Hey ,
i find your plugin very handy thank you for that.
At the moment iām a little bit stucked with ismActor. I use the āIsm Convert To Victory Ism Actorā. It works fine and generate a Victory Ism Actor but i loose my material.
I tried also to manualy create a āVictory ISMā and add a simple cube with one simple meterial it works but also no material. (only default checkerboardtecture visible)
Do you have any idear what i made wrong ? UE Version is 4.11.2.
Hi there! I am glad you are enjoying my plugin!
I have code to ensure that duplication doesnāt happen, as I experienced it myself, and I am using exact code in my project and have not run into many duplicates, but I do include refresh rates.
Please try including refresh rates to see if you actually have many different refresh rates, and if that is the I can come up with a solution if you dont need to see them .
Hereās the relevant C++ code
FString Str = "";
Str += FString::FromInt(EachResolution.Width);
Str += FString::FromInt(EachResolution.Height);
//Include Refresh Rates?
if(IncludeRefreshRates)
{
Str += FString::FromInt(EachResolution.RefreshRate);
}
if(Unique.Contains(Str))
{
//Skip! is duplicate!
continue;
}
else
{
//Add to Unique List!
Unique.AddUnique(Str);
}
You are amazing sir! TYTYTYTYTYTY!
As someone that develops for the PC platform and GearVR, there was way too much trickery I had to do to evaluate headset types (platform name, if PC, what temperature is the Riftā¦ if at 0 Celsius, then use the Vive. Bloated BP code ftl). will make life much easier for everyone. Again, thank you VERY much!
Once I get paid, Iāll throw some donation money your way most definitely!
Iām trying to set material onto at run-.
Iām creating material from texture & displacement map image file. These image files are loading from folder using Victory Pluginās āLoad Texture 2D from Fileā Node.
Victory Plugin Link :
Iām creating the material instance dynamic of the ātest materialā. Now Iām setting the texture and displacement parameter as shown in figure 4. After creating material instance dynamic, Iām setting material to the .
figure[1] test material: figure[2] texture: figure displacement map: figure[4] Method:
Now here is the problem.
When I directly create material in material editor from texture and displacement map and set it onto . It doesnāt generate** moirĆ© pattern.**
But when I run- set the material onto using figure [4]. It will generate moirƩ pattern.
Here are the sample screen shots of both.
figure[5]: Material Editor result: figure[6]: Runtime result: Imgur: The magic of the Internet
I think the āLoad Texture 2D from Fileā Node is not calculating the Mip Map correctly.
Thanks for the amazing plugins, !
Much appreciated!!!
Hee heee!
I am so glad I made you happy SaviorNT!
Youāre welcome!
Victory!
Victory To UE4! Far Shadows for RTS & Open World Games
Dear Community,
Iāll be honest, I almost cried when I discovered the new Far Shadows , which finally allows me to render shadows in UE4 at distances in the 100,000s oh myā¦ itsā¦ sniff SO GOOD!
If you dont know the back story of matter I was requesting Epic to do something about shadows fading out too quickly since 4.3, I needed them for an RTS game I am part of, Abatron.
Well the answer has finally come, my dear Community,** shadows in the 100s of 1000s of units**!!!
[FONT=Comic Sans MS]Celebration!

Hey John, can you tell me in detail where you made change. Which file I have to do changes ? There are many cpp nad header files in plugin
The error we talked about was :
1>ā¦]\Source\VictoryBPLibrary\Private\VictoryBPFunctionLibrary.cpp(10): fatal error C1083: File (Include) canāt be opened: āDeveloper/ImageWrapper/Public/Interfaces/IImageWrapper.hā: No such file or directory
So there you see in which line the include happens 
But I would guess has already fixed bug now. Do you still get it?
Hey, Iām fiddling a bit with your ragdoll nodes and Iām having some issues when trying to leave the ragdoll. At first the character would just disappear when I tried to reset it, but I realized I should get the location of the ragdoll before leaving it - so I get back up at its current position.
While it works to some extent, my characterās mesh is stuck mid-air. I can actually move around, and the character is animated properly. Any ideas what Iām doing wrong?
Hey, is it possible to request editor plugin? I mean tool that improves editor functionality instead of blueprints?
If so, ->
I would like to request tool i saw in CryEngine.
CE editor has super useful trick called āQuick Rotateā. What it does is, no matter what type of transform gizmo is currently selected (move, rotate, scale), pressing button will rotate currently selected mesh along worldās Z axis (or the one that points up) in predetermined degrees (usually 45) without switching to rotate gizmo. Seems like small thing but it is super useful when you try it few times.
Imagine you are placing framed paintings on the wall. You drag one from the CB, move it close to the wall and because luck would have it, painting is facing wrong way. Without selecting any other tool, just tap āQuick Rotateā shortcut few times and picture is oriented as is should. Works perfectly if you are populating world with assets, no breaks in the flow, just move, quick rotate, select next one and so on. In the CE editor you can setup shortcuts for axis but in my experience only Z axis is most used.
If not - >
I still love your work and i just want to say thanks!
H.
Isnāt kind of already doable since you can just tap space to alternate between the different movement modes?
Yes it is, but that just switches to rotation. Imagine one click would rotate the without switching from the current mode you are in, it may not seem like it, but it is very useful thing to have. People who populate levels in CE with meshes, actors and so on use that the and for good reason.
I saw somebody binding a mouse Input to a Vive controler. I would really need for interacting with Widgets.
II canāt find the Simulate Key Press Thing with the Plugin.
