Welcome and thank you for purchasing this plugin. Here you will find everything you need.
There is currently only one way to install this pack:
Through the Unreal Engine marketplace.
It is not planned to release this plugin anywhere else.
For more information on purchasing this pack, please go to the “How to use” section below.
Simply buy and install this pack into your project via the Unreal Engine marketplace. This plugin only functions between 2 Unreal Engine processes at once! In the future there might be an update for multiple connections at once.
How to setup:
After you have enabled this plugin in any of your projects create a new blueprint. In this blueprint you can add the new “BAS_LinkPro” Actor component. After you have done this, drag and drop the actor component into your blueprint graph. From here you can drag a pin out of this variable and search for any nodes included in this pack.
How to connect: (Or watch this tutorial instead: Link)
If you enable this plugin in 2 separate projects you can start by sending a request from one project to another (Let’s call the First project “A” and the second one “B”). So use the node “Request Connection” in project A and include the path of the other project in the String input (Example inputs: “C:\Example\YourProjectName” - Here should be the .exe or the .uproject file be located). If done right you can assign in project B the “On Request received” delegate. This will execute when the process got a connection request. Then you want to execute the “Accept request” node also in project B when the delegate gets executed and connect the Connection Code from the delegate to the input of this node. This accept node will fire the “On connection established” delegate in process A. After that you are free to send any Data between the 2 processes and receive them with the “On Data received” delegate.
