Display Hotspot icons not working

edited November 2024 in Technical Q&A

I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong, but I can't get the hotspot icons to appear. I want them always on, however they do not appear when set to always on. They also do not appear under "only when highlighting".

Current hotspot settings
Hotspot detection method: mouse over
detect lowest overlapping hotspot - unchecked
highlight hotspots based on cursor - unchecked
player turns head to active hotspot - unchecked

draw icons in: scene space
hotspot icon type currently set to use icon, however whether it is set to icon or texture does not seem to make a difference

I've searched the forums and haven't been able to locate anyone else not able to get them to appear under any circumstances to know where to start troubleshooting.

Thanks to anyone who is able to provide assistance!

Edit: I definitely didn't mean to post this in engine development, however now I'm not sure how to move it into the correct category. If I need to delete and re-post I will.

  • Do your Hotspots have an associated Highlight component? That'll be necessary for icons to show. You can attach this to your Hotspots and uncheck Auto-brighten materials? to have them only deal with icons.

    Otherwise, try running the 3D Demo's Basement (or 2D Demo's Park, if 2D) scene with your own Managers loaded. Do they show then?
