Setting up Unreal plugin - Data Table options?

CameraTraveler

Hello. I'm setting up the Unreal plugin (for 5.1). I've unzipped the files and put them into a "plugins" folder. Upon reopening up my Unreal project again, Unreal seems to need to know how to read the new Data Table it's found in the plugins folder. What should I select for the following two fields (see link/photo below)

Ps. Also curious if you have a estimate on when the Unreal plugin for 5.3 will be released. Many new virtual production upgrades are in 5.3 and curious which version of Unreal I should be building our next projects due in Feb.

Ps. Also heres a short video showing what I'm seeing both in Unreal and in the Lonet Server 2.6 app. Data is being received thru Live Link. It sees the encoders but their status remain "yellow"

Hello!
To the first question-- try just deleting the Intermediate folder. You may need to try with a fresh project.
To the second question: At the top of LONET, you can select a network interface. Try going through all available options and seeing if one works.

Thank you. I thought two questions above were related side effects of the same problem, no?

If your Unreal plugin had worked correctly when first setup, should Unreal never have a popup window asking for the DataTable Option? (seen here: https://photos.google.com/share/AF1QipPZe9HNrKEp5UE-CSoUVxZsbM6JXkPF0SnaTr2dVzxya6ghGmue56Nsx08c92kk4Q?key=a1lseGlhcHRtYU42dExEZmFaMkFDOUQ2QlNoOENn

Also when you say the "intermediate folder", do you mean I need to try to move All of the Lonet related files currently inside my "plugins" folder in my Unreal project to instead outside the plugins folder and instead to the previous/higher "content" folder instead?

Lastly when you mentioned the "network interface" in LONET, are you talking about changing the Port number under the Output window? If so, what number range should I be trying?

CameraTraveler Ah--I think I just realized the issue!
Put the Plugins folder in your project root folder (next to your uproject) not in the content folder. That should work.

Not the port number, the IP address. See photo here
