The Action system and object recognition seems not to work, because of a depreceated parent class “convai base character”, but no other class has this action system. In UE5.6 everything worked fine ---

Hello, V4 doesn’t support Actions. If you’d like, you can use V3 instead. > **[Releases · Conv-AI/Convai-UnrealEngine-SDK](https://github.com/Conv-AI/Convai-UnrealEngine-SDK/releases)** > > This Unreal Engine plugin integrates Convai API for conversational AI and environment perception and action-taking by the AI in Unreal Engine. - Conv-AI/Convai-UnrealEngine-SDK ---

Hi there, Guess that the plugin version currently available on Fab has exactly this same issue. I wonder when can we expect the final version to be published, since the latest update on Fab is from april 6, so chances are that it comes with v4. Thanks in advance ---

Actions are supported starting with Convai Unreal Engine SDK Version 4.0.0-beta.19. You can download the Convai plugin for your Unreal Engine version from the following link: > **[Releases · Conv-AI/Convai-UnrealEngine-SDK-V4](https://github.com/Conv-AI/Convai-UnrealEngine-SDK-V4/releases)** > > Contains updated plugin for Convai Unreal Engine. Contribute to Conv-AI/Convai-UnrealEngine-SDK-V4 development by creating an account on GitHub. After downloading it, please create a **Plugins** folder in your project directory, then extract the ZIP file and move the **Convai** folder into the **Plugins** folder.
