Hello \<@223891889747787776\> ,

Please follow these steps to set up the ReadyPlayerMe plugin:

1. Download the plugin from Google Drive for your desired Unreal Engine version.
2. Place the plugin in the `ProjectDirectory/Plugins` folder.
3. If your project is a C++ project, generate project files and then compile. If it’s a Blueprint project, simply open the project.

These are the steps you need to follow. If you encounter any issues, it might be related to your project. To confirm this, try opening the plugin in an empty project first.

You guys really need to put a note up top letting people know you simplified the process and that all they need to do now is follow the instructions on your website
