Problem with custom character

Hello,
I made a new empty project and built my escenario, i put my own character with its animations so i could play the level with it. To do that i imported the files of the blue character from the Third person project that comes with UE4.
The problem is that when i click the play button i dont appear where i placed the starting place, i appear in the middle of the floor, i cant move and the character does not show. BUT if i right click somewhere in the map and chose “play from here” my character appears and it works fine.

What am i doing wrong?
thanks!

I still could not solve this, any ideas??

need a little more info or video, do you have a playerstart actor have you re-build your map, why build from empty when your using the tps content you could start with the tps template

have you made your own gametype !!!
