BlackScreen and not responding when launching packaged file

Pretty much just what the title says, cant find a fix anywhere online for this issue that works for me.
First project ever so might be some silly issue but i cant seem to find a fix at all.


Double check:

  • your project setting - maps default
  • during the cooking process, check for any warning and fix them before.
  • you might need to install visual studio (with all required sdk) , especially if you used any additional plugin (not made by epic).
  • an event begin or via config file to change your Scalability to Medium/High because by defaut it will be set to Cinematic on packaged.

Take a development build, add some print screens or do something on keypresses. Check your “default game map” in ProjectSettings>MapsAndModes.
