I never had to bother with animblueprints before when doing a simple play montage or montage play but for some reason when I look into this problem I’m reading the solution might be adding the montage to a list of slots in the animBP and then the play montage nodes will work, but I can’t find out how to do this anywhere. Thanks much.
I had the same issue, but apparently it’s just here, next to the animation.
