How to get Game directory??

Development Programming & Scripting C++

I’m trying to game my game directory using FPaths but I get an error (unreferenced local variable). I know I must have silly mistake but I am not a programmer. Can anyone point the problem?

.cpp


FString UDialogueHandler::GetGameDir(FString DirectoryName)
{
	FPaths Path;
	DirectoryName = Path.GameDir();
	return DirectoryName;
}

.h


		UFUNCTION(BlueprintPure, Category = "DialogueHandler")
		static FString GetGameDir(FString DirectoryName);

Can you try this:

.h


UFUNCTION(BlueprintPure, Category = "DialogueHandler")
static FString GetGameDir();



FString UDialogueHandler::GetGameDir()
{
    return FPaths::ConvertRelativePathToFull(FPaths::GameDir());
}

Hi ryanjob2040, really appreciate the help.

I just changed the return to

FString UDialogueHandler::GetGameDir(FString DirectoryName)
{
return FPaths::GameContentDir(); // Get the game content directory
}

And it seems to work fine.

but seems like you are using a better method. Im gonna change it and see the outcome.

Thanks a tons!

Edit: Just tried return FPaths::ConvertRelativePathToFull(FPaths::GameDir()); and it gave me the full path!
