  4. Set the image to Brush > Make Image Brush From Texture and set the image to use the HUDPlayerInfoViewmodel > Player Avatar Icon

Expected Result

To show the player skin avatar icon in the UI.

Observed Result

The image stays blank (as in a white block) or with the default image texture that should be replaced by the Player Avtar Icon

Platform(s)

All of them

Upload an image

Can’t get player name either

@Thiago.Unreal how is your Widget shown to the player?

Also quick question when setting up the viewmodels did you by any chance set the bottom viewmodel “HUD Controller Player Info Viewmodel” instead of “HUD Controller Team/Squad Player Info List” viewmodel?

Yes I did like that!
And Im showing the hud through verse

These viewmodels are intended to be used by the HUD Controller device not verse

Make sure the Viewmodel imported is “Hud Controller Team/Squad Player Info List” and that you put the widget on the hud controller device

That made it work ! Thank you for your help Mineblo!
The only thing that sux is the black background lol
