Chat Box in VR (Unreal Engine)

Original Discord Post by arithieus | 2024-07-10 08:22:52

I want to add a simple chatbox for my project in VR. On normal mode, the chatbox is available but not in VR. I just want to attach the chatbox to the right side of the character.

If it’s possible, by the first august would be suffice, because I want to show case this project for my bachelor’s degree

Hi <@757528430702100510> <@350461137357242368>, this can be achieved via 3d widgets, it’s not very complicated all you need is to add the chat widget (named chat_wb in the plugin files) on a 3d widget that is spawned in the scene.

You can also build your own widget from scratch using the Convai Chatbot events:

Good to know, I’ll give that a shot. Thanks!
