Hi! I came through a problem that I followed the YouTube video for setting up convai into my project, I added the convai base character into my map but when I reach it, it keep asking me to approach a character to talk although I am near the capsule for the convai base character in the map. I put the character ID in the convai base character blueprint, set my thirdperson blueprint into convai base player, also did the step for putting the API in the project settings.

I’m also wondering is there a way to make the text section disappear when talking? Cuz it’s always there on the left bottom corner.

You can hide the Chatbox, but you cannot remove the logo.

You must show the Convai logo outside the chat box.
