Advanced Steam Sessions: Find Sessions Advanced stopped working on Unreal Engine 5.5.1

Hello! So recently I updated my project from 5.4.4 to 5.5.1 along with the AdvancedSteamSessions plugin. I can create sessions but i can’t find them.


The “On Failure” event doesnt execute, it only gets stuck searching sessions.
What am I doing wrong? Thanks in advance!

btw, here’s my DefaultEngine.ini:

[/Script/Engine.GameEngine]
+NetDriverDefinitions=(DefName="GameNetDriver",DriverClassName="OnlineSubsystemSteam.SteamNetDriver",DriverClassNameFallback="OnlineSubsystemUtils.IpNetDriver")

[OnlineSubsystem]
DefaultPlatformService=Steam
bHasVoiceEnabled=true

[Voice]
bEnabled=true

[OnlineSubsystemSteam]
bEnabled=true
SteamDevAppId=480
bInitServerOnClient=true
bUsesPresence=true
bUseLobbiesIfAvailable=true
bUseSteamNetworking=true

[/Script/OnlineSubsystemSteam.SteamNetDriver]
NetConnectionClassName="OnlineSubsystemSteam.SteamNetConnection"

Hey I also tried to integrate Advanced Sessions today and am also not able to Join Session. I first tried my old way using the Friend Session node instead of the Find Session Advanced node which also can’t find the session. I hope someone knows what is going on with the plugin.

maybe this post has the same problem upgraded from 5.2 -> 5.5.1 and i no longer can make steam p2p session work .
And there the Advanced Sessions plugin was the solution. I am using the binaries from here Advanced Sessions Binaries – VR Expansion Plugin . Maybe the source here GitHub - mordentral/AdvancedSessionsPlugin: Advanced Sessions Plugin for UE4 is still newer and fixes the problem? I guess I will wait for new binaries :confused:

hmmm, guess ill report this issue in their github then

hey just a little update, find session advanced and join session actually work for me with the newest binaries for 5.51. But Friend Session does not work right now, maybe the workarounds which got added by @mordentral were not added to Friend Session yet.

Anyway my mistake was destroying the session at a bad point in the chain.

I hope friend session gets fixed too because i only wanted to look for sessions in the steam friends list. but for testing find session advanced works for me.

I installed the newest binaries and the same still happens to me. Where did you installed it from?

hey i installed the latest from here Advanced Sessions Binaries – VR Expansion Plugin .
This is how i handle it in blueprints:


I have the same version than yours and for me is still not working. None of the “On Success” or “On Failure” executes, it just gets stuck finding sessions.
