MetaHuman Not Moving in VR After Following Guide - UE 5.3

Original Discord Post by ricardomontenegro115 | 2024-08-09 13:46:50

Hi everyone,

I’m working on a project in Unreal Engine 5.3, and I’ve successfully set up a MetaHuman with ConvaiFaceSync. The character is responsive and the facial synchronization is working perfectly. However, I’m having trouble getting the MetaHuman to walk or move within the VR environment.

I’ve followed all the steps in the guide, but the character remains stationary. Has anyone encountered a similar issue or have any tips on what I might be missing?

Thanks in advance for any help! Si es en español mejor, gracias

Hello <@1271425232330297365>,

Welcome to Convai Community!

Do you mean the Move Action doesn’t work?

Thank you for the welcome! Yes, the Move Action doesn’t seem to be working for my MetaHuman. The character is set up correctly with ConvaiFaceSync, and everything else is functioning as expected, but it just won’t move or walk in the VR environment. Any ideas on what I might be missing?

Is there any additional configuration I should check with the NavMesh?

Could you please try to perform the action and then please share the console logs?
