Hello,

I want to set the location and rotation manually (Spawnpoint). Location is no problem. Without HMD, I just use for rotation “set control rotation” and it works, but with HMD there is no difference in rotation.  
I tried working with “set actor rotation” and “reset orientation and position”, but nothing works.

My hmd is oculus dk2

Greetings
