Phantom sphere can't be deleted

rFranks

Hey there I have this phantom sphere that doesn't appear in the viewport (even in wireframe mode) and i can't find it in the World Outliner, yet when I play the Standalone Player (to render 360 images) the sphere appears. 

Here's looking through a camera...

Here's a wireframe view... ​​​​​​​ 

And here's when viewing through the Standalone Player...

Am I missing something?

Thanks in advance.

Hi. I was facing this issue a while ago, when I was trying to use the same plugin, but it can happen without the plugin too. The sphere that you are seeing is basically the player. If you select the player actor in the outliner during simulation or pie, you will see that it selects the sphere. To solve this, you would need to make a game mode that has a player without the sphere. So just make a new player class, and assign it to the currently assigned game mode in the world settings and the sphere will disappear.

Ah whoops looks like I had deleted my Player Start actor, so now I've re-added it and moved it out of view and all's much better. Thanks.

Another workaround is just getting all actors of class "Default Pawn" on begin play and deleting them.

That's just a workaround though. Having your gamemode and player set up correctly is the proper fix.
