But could also be used in a flat game through, eg; pointing a weapon at an in-world widget selection.

Crash on garbage collection of WidgetInteraction Component
Yes. It's used in other UE engines - it's a standard part of the VR widget interaction toolkit.

Crash on garbage collection of WidgetInteraction Component
It's a standard Unreal Engine component, so perhaps it's been affected by other engine customisations, or perhaps wasn't kept up to date with the engine migrations?

Crash on garbage collection of WidgetInteraction Component
It also means that in a Network game, if the user gets a Network disconnect, the user gets the crash, rather than returning to the menu to be able to reconnect.

Crash on garbage collection of WidgetInteraction Component
Thing is - it works perfectly fine, and you can play for hours without any problems. But when the world unloads, like returning to the main menu, then the crash happens.

Crash on garbage collection of WidgetInteraction Component
This is a component to allow interaction with the Widget Component. This class allows you to simulate a sort of laser pointer device, when it hovers over widgets it will send the basic signals to show as if the mouse were moving on top of it. You'll then tell the component to simulate key presses, like Left Mouse, down and up, to simulate a mouse click.

Crash on garbage collection of WidgetInteraction Component
The WidgetInteraction component is used in my mod attached to VR controllers which follow the users hands. They are used to handle interactions with world-space widgets, namely the wrist menus that I have implemented.

uevr wrist menu rotation issue
When you first inject in, does it pop up a message and say either uevr or the profile are the wrong version? My first guess is your using uevr 1.05 instead of the nightly version.

Migrating an UE Enumerator to C++
Cleanup:
- In Unreal Editor right-click your top mod folder and "Fix Up Redirectors"
- Use the Reference Viewer on the old UE Enumeration - it should be a lot less than before! You should be able to manually clean up these references:
- For Structures edit the Structure and change any variable types using the old enums to use the new one
- For Blueprints I found if I loaded the blueprint and manually compiled and saved it removed the references to the old struct
- If you can get references down to 0, you can delete the old UE Enumeration and remove the
EnumRedirects from Engine.ini! Congrats!3 replies

Migrating an UE Enumerator to C++
The Switcheroo:
- Create or edit
Config\Engine.ini under your mod's folder, and add the following, modifying it to suit your requirements:
- Replace OldEnumName with your old UE enum's name, ENewEnumName with your new C++ enum, ModID with your Mod's ID
- For each enum option, add a ValueChanges entry mapping the old enum entry to the new one. Here's the painful part - the UE Enumeration internally uses IDs NewEnumerator0, NewEnumerator1, etc... in the order they were originally added. This means that if enum options were reordered, or deleted, then this won't be a simple sequence. What was the easiest for me was to use FModel to open the mod pak and view the JSON of the old UE Enumeration uasset, which included a mapping of all the NewEnumerator names to labels (although it was oddly missing the last one... 🤔).
- Build your mod (Visual Studio build for Development Editor) again - not sure this step is 100% needed, but doesn't hurt
- Load up Unreal Editor. Now all blueprints using the Old enum should now be using the new enum by name and have the right labels (if you got the ValueChanges right). If you had a previous node using the new enum natively, you should now be able to connect it to a previously old enum without conversion.
- If all went well, your mod should now build and run! 🎉3 replies

UEVR crashes, most of time from opening the inventory
There are a few other general crashes that can affect the game. If you want you can post the crash message here and I can check, but from other reports and my own testing, the "UEVR causing crashes when UI is opened" bug should be "fixed".

@PiggyChu620 - you can now install "0.9.9-alpha1" directly from SMM which includes the crash fixes. Please give it a go and let me know if it helps!

UEVR on Linux: Game doesn't start
I'm afraid UEVR injection issues are largely outside my skillset at the moment, so I don't have any current solution for supporting Linux at this stage.

UEVR on Linux: Game doesn't start
Even on Windows it's better to inject UEVR after loading a save game. From your description it sounds like you're injecting earlier than that?
Does the game run fine with the "UEVR Enhancements" mod installed, if you don't inject UEVR?
