Great work! Will there be an update to UE version 4.15? Thanks!
AdvancedSessionsPlugin was reporting some problems with 4.15. Pretty soon 4.15 we will release a 4.15 version.

I'm releasing axis mapping and controller support today with the UE4.15 release! It took a while to work the bugs out.

The UE4.15 release includes some major changes. Here are some of the major ones.
The MainMenuLib was removed and blueprints only graphics settings were put into place using Mathew Wadstein's method.
Axis bindings are now possible.
Controllers (Xbox and Steam) are now supported.
And a UE4 intro video plays at the beginning.

Thank youYou're welcome. Hopefully this saves people a lot of time. Binding can be kind of difficult. The inputs require alphabetical order and sometimes after packaging the game you have to re-order the defaultinput.ini controls back into alphabetical order. The menu system is getting pretty complicated. I forget where things are if I haven't worked with it in a few months.
The input widgets can be found here -
/Game/Cardinal/MainMenu/Blueprints/UI/SettingsPanels/ControlsSettingsDetails
In the arrays DefaultActionBinds_"control-scheme"
and
/Game/Cardinal/MainMenu/Blueprints/UI/SettingsPanels/RAMA-AxisControls/AxisMain_ByRama
In the arrays DefaultAxisBinds_"control-scheme"The default inputs are in:
\game\Config\DefaultInput.iniAnd input mappings for PC are as follows:
+ActionMappings=(ActionName="Jump",Key=SpaceBar,bShift=False,bCtrl=False,bAlt=False,bCmd=False)
+ActionMappings=(ActionName="Menu",Key=M,bShift=False,bCtrl=False,bAlt=False,bCmd=False)
+AxisMappings=(AxisName="Backward",Key=S,Scale=-1.000000)
+AxisMappings=(AxisName="Forward",Key=W,Scale=1.000000)
+AxisMappings=(AxisName="LookDown",Key=None,Scale=1.000000)
+AxisMappings=(AxisName="LookUp",Key=MouseY,Scale=-1.000000)
+AxisMappings=(AxisName="TurnLeft",Key=MouseX,Scale=1.000000)
+AxisMappings=(AxisName="TurnRight",Key=None,Scale=-1.000000)*Note the alphabetical order
I play tested it for a while. I think I fixed most of the bugs. If you see one, please let me know. Thanks

YOU SAVE a lot of time of all people want use your project for prototyping game or something like that. For my mind since i played with ue4 i have seen many community helper giving some tuto you know complete solution to start with and this is very good because when you are indie or even student this type of project i guess "Cardinal Menu" is a gold mine and this can increase significantly your power!
I just want to say something last one for people looking for solide base fundation for starting game or any other. this is a MUST USE in his category.
Peace -

Pepito is right, never seen even a package like this.
FIVE STARS TO ALL THE MEMBERS!!!! -

Thanks for the encouragement. We just released a new version that fixes the in editor's default binds being wrong out of the box. PIE PC controls should work fine now.

Steam friend avatars were fixed. They are not functioning correctly in UE4.15 until Cardinal Menu v170405_415.

Hi, I'm triyng to make some test with Cardinal Menu and I found a strange behavior, If you launch 2 PIE windows and on the server windows start a network host and on the client window connect to the server (LAN, no STEAM) the gamemode is not passed to the client and you have olny the default one, just the camera.
Could someone help me with this issue?
thx

Is the game instance set? Sometimes it becomes unset for some reason. Especially if you migrate project files.

DavideJust for reference in case anyone else has the same problem: The issue was resolved in the discord channel. The problem was Auto Connect to Server being checked under PIE -> Advanced Settings -> Multiplayer options.

I'm taking a look. I think it's depreciated. The menu has been in production under a lot of different engine releases. I'll get back to you.
Edit: Ah, that part is confusing and could use a lot of rework. Basically the ending parts of the function OpenDetailsContainer remove or rename the buttons on the bottom of the panels The "Apply - Defaults" button. The names are being changed on runtime or they are being hidden depending on what panel is being selected.
LocalDetailsPanelID "2" is the Controls panel I believe.
There were bugs with setting / rebinding controls while the game was in progress. That part makes sure you go back to the main menu to set the controls back to defaults. If I remember right, it's because of how UE4 sorts control mappings automatically. It took a long time to find a method that worked and "applying defaults" while in game caused problems. (The MainMenu map has no controls really, so you just don't see the problems when you apply defaults.)
We might solve that issue in the future. It's not a huge priority right now, though.
I'm not sure if that made sense? Basically, it makes it so the default controls can only be set in the MainMenu. Running through the array of default controls while the game is in progress has caused problems in testing. If that wasn't your question, let me know.
