Instructions

In this tutorial, we will be enabling the Pixel Streaming plugin for an Unreal Engine Project

The Pixel Streaming Plugin works when you run your Project natively as a packaged application from your Computer or when you stream it from the Control Panel.

Step1. Enable the Pixel Streaming Plugin

From your Unreal Engine Editor, go to Edit → Plugins → Graphics → Pixel Streaming. Click Enabled.

Step 2. Restart the Project

Click Restart Now to restart your Project and apply the change.

Step 3. Enable the ‘Always Show Touch Interface’ Plugin (Optional)

This is optional, and not required for all Projects.

For Projects like the Third-Person Template, this makes sure that users with touch devices can control the streamed application (as long as the Project's Player Controller supports touch input).

If your Project involves a character, and you want to enable input from touch devices such as phones and tablets to move that character around the Level, you may want to show the on-screen touch controllers.

Go to Edit → Project Settings → Engine → Input → Mobile , enable ‘Always Show Touch Interface’

You have now enabled the Pixel Streaming Plugin for your Unreal Engine Project.

The next step will be to Package your Project from Unreal Engine Package your Project from Unreal Engine
