Development Programming & Scripting Blueprint

static ConstructorHelpers::FClassFinder
PlayerPawnOb(TEXT(“Blueprint’/Game/Blueprints/BP_PacManChar.BP_PacManChar’”));

So I have this code, where i want to get a reference to my PacMan character, I copied exactly the string from the content browser, but it always returns null, Any suggestions??

Instead of this:

PlayerPawnOb(TEXT("Blueprint'/Game/Blueprints/BP_PacManChar.BP_PacManChar'"));

Try this:

PlayerPawnOb(TEXT("'/Game/Blueprints/BP_PacManChar.BP_PacManChar'"));

No that does not work either.

In my other class, i wrote

static ConstructorHelpers::FObjectFinder<UStaticMesh> Sphere(TEXT("StaticMesh'/Game/StarterContent/Shapes/Shape_Sphere.Shape_Sphere'"));

And this works fine, but with ClassFinder is not the same, any more ideas?

You need to add a _C to get the class:

static ConstructorHelpers::FClassFinder<APawn>
     PlayerPawnOb(TEXT("Blueprint'/Game/Blueprints/BP_PacManChar.BP_PacManChar_C'")));

Or use

static ConstructorHelpers::FClassFinder<APawn>
     PlayerPawnOb(TEXT("/Game/Blueprints/BP_PacManChar")));

Thank you, the _C Version solved my problem
