Following this exact setup didn’t make it working, so I had to debug it.

To start even trying to understand what’s going on, I added this to the DefaultEngine.ini
[Core.Log]
LogOnlineVoice=All

Using ToggleSpeaking 1 in the console command (something the article didn’t mention) I found out that nothing was happening, literally. After googling I stumbled upon

[Voice]
bEnabled=true

that I added in my DefaultEngine.ini. After restarting the engine once again, it was at least saying that it’s rejecting the request. The reason was the fact the local player was not owned by the voice engine because it never registered it.

Going deeper into the engine I found out that it happens only when you create/join a session. I was opening the game map directly by pressing PIE button. Now, after I tried to create a session, the ToggleSpeaking was finally working.

So, to recap.

[Voice]
bEnabled=true

tells the engine to create a voice subsystem

[OnlineSubsystemSteam]
bHasVoiceEnabled=true

tells the voice subsystem to create a voice engine.

Creating or joining a session makes it tell the voice engine that there are players that might start speaking, i.e. it registers them.

ToggleSpeaking tells the voice subsystem to tell the voice engine to start capturing device of a player in case it was registered in the voice engine.

There’s also

[/Script/Engine.GameSession]
bRequiresPushToTalk=false

in case you want your players to not call ToggleSpeaking to start/stop talking, but talk all the time.

Hopefully it helps someone out. Cheers.

Comment on How to play your UE5 game on your Quest 2 Headset by CLAUS

This tutorial is for unreal engine 4, not unreal engine 5, for which oculus vr is unfortunzteky replaced by openxr. I say “unfortunately” because we lost some data in the change, like the angular and linear accelerations, which represent 30% of the pose information and even 100% of it when the handler is untracked by the headset.

Do you happen to know if this works in ue5.3.2? I’ve been struggeling for weeks now trying to get proximity voice chat to work for my small hobby game, but can’t seem to get attenuation to work properly. It’s always either the client or the server that it works for, but not both at the same time, unless the server is muted until a client joins. Then if i unmute on the server first and then on the client, it works for both, up until one dies and respawns. When i then go through that procedure again of muting and unmuting, it only works for one part.
Any suggestions or have experienced something similar?

I’ve just tried this today with 5.3.2 and can’t get it to work. The attenuation does not seem to work for the Server. As soon as a Client connects (ie. 30 secs after the server), the attenuation resets for the Server.

In reply to Conner. If you're pulling from the velocity vector you'll need to break it. drag from the velocity node into empty space and select "Break Vector" then you can grab the Z and plug it into your > node.

In reply to Max. You will need to implement either Steam, EOS, or your own custom networking solution / master server system to get this system working over the internet. Also your server needs to be port forwarded if you aren't using Steam or EOS.

In reply to Conner. Ensure that you are dragging from the character component when getting the velocity.

In reply to Jules. You will have to do this in C++ if the functionality isn't available in BP.
