There a many services for your backend multiplayer, I chose EOS because it seemed like a great choice with great features, with that being said I seem to have troubles getting any sessions created. The problem is a bit strange as I couldn’t find any with this particular result I am receiving. Upon clicking the button to Create A Session I’m redirected to my web browsing to accept the 2 prompts from Epic Games. I accept both but only to the session creation fail via my print output. I click the button again, same result, so here goes the code…
My widget of login with session creation attempt…
(Here’s the login macro as well)…
Following Epic’s EOS outlining the documentation, I have also added the following to the DefaultDengine.ini configuration file…
(I forgot these additions, but these are also in the DefaultEngine.ini)
[OnlineSubsystemEOS]
bEnabled=true
[OnlineSubsystem]
DefaultPlatformService=EOS
And I’ve double checked my EOS SDK credentials so ensure my product ID, Client ID etc… all match what I’ve set up through my Dev Portal.
Any ideas? Is there debugging information available that could aid in pinpointing the problem?
Happy Halloween!
EDIT: Some extras I forgot to mention, I am using the Advanced Sessions plugin and of course the 2-3 plugins required for EOS (I think only 2 are required).
I remembered running it in Stand Alone will show a more detailed log and it seems to show some auto-connect attempt for OSS (Steam?) which I wasn’t aware of but is irrelevant since all of this is printed out before any login/session creation is requested in the game.
But when trying to create a session and being redirected to the Epic prompts I receive no other information from the output window…
Just figured I’d throw that out there as well…
