I did the Multiplayer Programming Quick Start tutorial by Unreal on UE5 but I only see 1 player in each window. Does anyone know why this might be the case?

I did the Multiplayer Programming Quick Start tutorial by Unreal on UE5, and after finishing it I DO get 2 windows, but only see 1 character in each window.

I made sure the ThirdPersonCharacter hasReplicate set to TRUE on all of its components. The tutorial seems to be using a UE4 template, whereas I’m using a UE5 template.

Wanted help with figuring out what would be the issue. I read about there being some “Play as Client” or “PLay as Server” (or something like that) select options but I couldnt find in UE5.

Please help.

You are getting 1 Player in Each Windows because, you are in Standalone Mode.
Refer to this Image on how to Switch Modes : https://docs.unrealengine.com/5.0/Images/building-virtual-worlds/level-editor/in-editor-testing/play-in-editor-mulitplayer-options/01-networking-settings.jpg

Enjoy. :slight_smile:
