You can choose between a managed cloud and a self-hosted solution. Let 4Players GmbH deal with the setup, administration and bandwidth costs or run our server software on your own infrastructure allowing you complete control and customization of your deployment environment.
The ODIN SDK for Unreal enables you to add real-time VoIP communication to your Unreal Engine 4/5 game, thus making it more social and interactive.
- Unreal Engine 4.26 or any later version (including 5.x)
Internally, the plugin is built and tested with Unreal Engine 4.27.
To check out the SDK and use it as a project plugin, clone the git repo into a working directory of your choice.
This repository uses LFS (large file storage) to manage pre-compiled binaries. Note that a standard clone of the repository might only retrieve the metadata about these files managed with LFS. In order to retrieve the actual data with LFS, please follow these steps:
-
Clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/4Players/odin-sdk-unreal.git -
Cache the actual LFS data on your local machine and replace the metadata in the binary files with their actual contents:
git lfs fetch git lfs checkout... or if you have a recent LFS version:
git lfs pull
Next, move or copy the files into a new Odin sub-folder under your projects Plugins folder. It should end up looking like /MyProject/Plugins/Odin/.
