I’m following along with a tutorial video on the new Enhanced Input System and I can’t create the 3rd person C++ project it suggests. When trying to create the project I get this error:
When I try to compile in Visual Studio after clicking the button on the bottom right, I get this:
It feels like I need to adjust something in the project but I can’t even create one. Is there a way to fix this? Or could I possibly just create a blank project and bring in the assets that the 3rd person default project comes with?
Thanks! I’m anxious to get started.

Well, my first UE forums post and it turned into one of those “keep screwing around after you post and the solution will present itself”.
Problem: Can’t create a C++ 3rd person project (BP works fine).
Reason for problem: I was calling the project “EnhancedInput”
Solution: I changed the project I was creating to “EnhancedInput_”
Conclusion: Don’t give your C++ projects the same name as a plugin you’re trying to use in said project.
I figured this out by luck just creating a 2nd project instead of deleting out of frustration and that’s what ended up sorting it out.
I’m still not 100% sure of all the ins-n-outs of the issue but I hope this can help others because I’ve noticed a bunch of threads about projects crashing on start.
Cheers
