Ever since today or yesterday, the OnEmotionStateChanged event isn’t returning emotions correctly. All emotions will have a value of 0 except None has a value of 0.33, any help? My game relies on the emotion states 🙏 I’m using Unreal

Hi Team,

The digital human emotion response is being received as Neutral=1 constantly instead of happiness, joy, sadness, etc.

Can you please have a look at this issue? Thanks.

I am writing to ask about Unreal engine 5 - convai plugin project.  
Since the day before yesterday, there are no responses about face emotion score in Convai\_MetaHuman\_FaceAnim.  
I read some article about no emotion response from Convai Plugin.  
Is it still have problem?

my char ID: 0f9e947a-6249-11f0-a843-42010a7be01f

Lipsync is working but emotions are not working.  
please suggest me if there is any possibility that I can try.  
Thank you so much.

Hi @K3,

Was just testing speaking to the digital human and it keeps giving Intermittent Error 14 and does not respond to conversations. Also there are still no Emotion Data coming through. Enclosing the log for the team to check through. Have tried it in the playground and getting the same results.

Have a big presentation coming up. Can you and the team provide an update and a fix for this please.

Thanks, Jeasy

Just tried! It seems the emotion sets are registering in the build, but the Error 14, The Dreaded Error 14 keeps showing up so often. Also the text widget is showing the emotion in _\*\*_
