Hello,

This plugin does not work in 4.15 for me. It says it is missing some modules.

hi, sorry be late reply, I didn’t be notified that this thread has response.

Did you still have this problem?

If so, I suggest you clear Intermediate and Binaries in your folder and try again.

If you still can’t compile, please try to create a new project and see if plugin works.

Hello !
I have encountered a situation that leads to a crash : if in an Event you call SetTextAndRebuildDialogue to modify the content of the TextBlock that triggered the Event, the game crashes.
See modified Tuto08_HyperText Event Graph attached as image file.

hi, i can’t reproduce your crash, could you please send me the files under Saved\Logs and Saved\Crashes?

10

Yes, here there are.
I can reproduce it nearly 100% of the time.

hi,

After check the log, I finally can reproduce the crash.

This crash is caused by the changed of content when a hypertext block is click, so please don’t call SetTextAndRebuildDialogue for the widget itself that are clicked. (In this case is HorizonDialogueMsgTextBlock2).

Anyway, I will fix this crash in next plugin release.

Thank you for your bug report.
