Hello adventures!
Today I have a little question to do about something quite similar to a recent post(this right here).
I simply have the code below and it works fine when I start a project from samples provided by the unreal engine itself, but whenever I try to start a new Blank project the code turns useless despite success on code compile, but it just doesn’t find the static mesh to load in a first looks like unreal engine totally ignores that I have assets in my folder.
In resume in a unreal engine sample(like FPS, third person, etc) project it works, but ina blank project not.
Perhaps I need to do any configuration to put this code to work? I don’t know what to do now, I should apreciate any help on this.
