following tutorials about DMX and i have a problem
project settings → Maps & Modes
doesn’t show ‘BP_DMX_GameInstance’ as an option
i have all the plug-ins enabled
tried redownloading unreal engine several times
do i have to make one myself? or did i do something wrong
i only see this question being asked with no answers anywhere
just anybody say anything
call me an idiot and tell me anything
is it normal that i dont have that option or is something wrong
just tell me that anybody~
Did you create an empty project or did you use the dmx template? I can also recommend using the DMX previs sample project as a starting point. It has everything you need.

i actually tried them both…
even with the previs project, i still couldn’t see bp_dmx_gameinstance as an option.
thx for the reply
What do you need it for?
i was following tutorials about controlling lights using dmx.
like in this video at 0:47, he sets game instance class to ‘bp_dmx_gameinstance’ without much explanation.
also we can see that he has bp_dmx_gameInstance in ‘dmx fixture content’ folder
but my ‘dmx fixture content’ folder doesn’t have it
Have you tried following the tutorial with skipping that step? I never saw that BP before and have it working perfectly fine. Maybe they took it out a few updates ago?
oh if that’s the case i might have done something wrong elsewhere.
i tried following the tutorial with skipping that step but it didn’t work for me so i thoght that must’ve been the problem.
i’ll try it again. thx!
if you can’t get it working, please contact me here. We’ll figure it out 
Just to let you know I solved the problem!
you were right, it works without selecting that gameinstance.
it turns out that i did something wrong on grandma2 which i used to get dmx input from.
