GetGameInstance...From simple object?

[phil123456]

Hi,

I have an object that only contains simple data and code…unrelated to 3D nor unreal

it just outputs some numbers…yet I need to have access to GamInstance

so I tried to replace it with an actor, but it’s not an actor, I mean it’s not supposed to be spawned in 3D world

so how do I get the Game Instance from a simple object ?

thanks

I’m not sure I understand, is this a UObject? Or an object created outside of Unreal Engine running in some external process?

I found the solution, it’s an object (UObject?) I instanciate in MyGeInstance, so I just had to pass it as a parameter so that object gets the MyGameInstance value

stupid of me

Makes sense!

Pause the game, but needs game main menu (scene capture) to be updated

Hi, as I display the main game menu, I have a widget displaying a 3D scene capture [image] since unreal does not allow multiple level/scenes contexts, the scene I capture, is hidden inside the game, in an unlit black box [image] but as I a show the main menu, I also pause the game!!! so my captured hidden scene (and materials) is not updated how do I get around this ? thanks for your help
