Right, don’t worry. You’re so close!

If you absolutely CAN’T use a level streaming option and have to use the black background approach. Just create a black plane somewhere in your map your player doesn’t see and put a camera there. When the player touches the level complete, use this:

(Just copy it into your project) <PlayerController should be plugged into Target and New View should be the camera facing the black background>.

If you want it to animate, you’re out of luck without level streaming. If you did it via level streaming, you could put a run cycle of your main character (As a Paper2D flipbook animation) slap bang in the middle to make a nice transition!

Something you’ve just gotta simplify your thinking

Edit: Better yet, when the player gets the level complete, Make a matinee with a director and fade track and fade to black, THEN transition to the other camera, for that nice fade-out look

Thank you so much for everything but i think your suggestions are the reason i want them to make UMG /blueprints to load on a different thread.
I can already create a black background or a static image. I make it into a BP, spawn it from a scene component from my main character (he is centered to the screen) and then when the new level loads i respawn it and then i destroy it.
Matinee fade as i mention in my link above does not work for paper2d projects.
So you are essentially telling me that i cannot animate anything without using level streaming? I know that!! lol
Love you man! You are awesome and you helped me a ton to understand how the HUD works with your book!

Cheers!
