[Plugin] OSC for UE4

Hi monsieurgustav !

first, thanks for your great plugin :smiley: ! Importing OSC to unreal engine is awesome, I used to play with osc using Unity, vvvv and puredata (ie here : ) and having it working also on ue4 is great !

Anyway, i’m here also because i got some problems making it communicate properly with the outside, and as I’m new to Unreal Engine, I’m a bit lost. so I installed your plugin, compiled it and everything seems to work well inside ue4 (i can access it in blueprints, open your examples and everything) but the fact is I can’t make it send or receive anything from another application, so in fact i didn’t manage to establich communication with the outside.

For the moment i’m trying to send a simple constant float from UE4 to VVVV. I’m pretty sure the vvvv part (osc receiver part) is ok as i’m used to vvvv. So the problem must come from my use of your OSC plugin in UE4, and as i’m new to ue4, i’m not surprised :o.

so here is what i did (I also join a screenshot of my blueprint, and the vvvv part, if it can help).

  • i’m sending and receiving on the 6670 (so i changed the port in the OscSettings.cpp, and check if the host was local/ ) and saved the cpp file.
  • in UE4 i created a class blueprint with some simple elements in it (not related to the osc anyway) and made a simple sending patch as in your example.
  • i’m sending and receiving on the osc address “/bubu” so I added a string variable into the blueprint containing this value and linked it into the adress pin of the sender.

I import the blue print into my scene and I hit play obut nothing seems to arrive to VVVV.

Do u have any idea of what i did wrong ?
