Unable to add cameras to new Aximmetry UE5 Beta install

Back to Posts

Hi everyone.
Just installed the beta. installed all common libraries and unreal engine from installer.
I installed everything to my second SSD in the "E:\Aximmetry\" folder. Unreal Engine was installed to the "E:\UE5_for_Aximmetry\" folder.

Unable to add cameras.
To try to fix it, I uninstalled everything then reinstalled it all over again, but I still get this issue.
What's going on?
Thank you.

P.S. Unreal Engine also has an error message that pops up when I open the project and it says: "Aximmetry: Could not find Aximmetry Projects folder. Make sure Aximmetry is installed."

What! How do I tell Unreal Engine where Aximmetry is installed???

Aximmetry is fully installed, but just not to the primary SSD, it is installed on the secondary SSD.

Thank you.

Oh, I think I solved it.

I opened Aximmetry UE5 Beta with administrator permissions (Right click -> "Run as Administrator") and it seems to work better now.

I can add cameras now!

Why does it need administrator permissions? Can I not just use regular user permissions?

Hi,

Probably the reinstall fixed it and not the administrator permissions.

This issue happens because those camera assets are located in the Common library (Common_Studio\Unreal_Assets).
So you have to install Aximmetry with it:

And make sure the Common Library or the folder containing it is added to Edit->Prefences->Project Root Folders:

This setting is used to locate the folder Common_Studio\Unreal_Assets when pressing Add Camera in Unreal for Aximmetry.
This is done to keep things at the same version and easily update Unreal camera compounds. Since Aximmetry Cameras in Unreal is used together with the camera compounds located inside the Common library.

Warmest regards,
