There are a few things you need to configure to make standard UE4 levels work in Gladius.

Creating a basic level

1. Create a new level: Go to File>New Level... And select Default

1. Save the level into your plugin folder: Click File>SaveCurrent and type a level name.

   

2. Open the Definition file again, type the name of your weapon blueprint file (e.g. MyLevel in this example), and select ModType = Level.

   

   Click "Compile", then "Save", and finally close the definition file. You don't need to modify this file again.

   

Configuring the level - Basic settings

There are two things that you need to modify to make the new level work.

• GameMode Override: Open the world settings tab and override the Game mode. Select VR_Game mode.

• Player start position: Move the player start actor to the ground level

  

• Change all lights to and atmosferic fog to static: While this is not estrictly necessary I highly recommend it to achieve the 72fps framerate.

• Set the floor to Ground: Select the floor actor in the scene hierarchy and add an actor tag named "Ground".
