Can I move a level to another project?

Development Programming & Scripting

Hi
I’ve created a small level in UE4 and I recently decided it would be better for my needs to have it in a project set up with the third person blueprint so I can add lifts/doors that react to that player.

Is there a way to move all my assets and materials from one project to this new one I want to create?

Thanks

Hi,

in the Content Browser: Search for your level, rightclick on it, choose Asset Actions > Migrate
You’ll get a list of what will be migrated into your desired project.
Go further and choose the content folder of the project where you wanna migrate these things into it.

Besides: You can do that with almost every asset that exists, even folders.

You can find the content folder here by default: C:\Users\[WindowsUser]\Documents\Unreal Projects\[ProjectFolder]\Content

Cheers

It used to gather all assets used for the level like meshes, shaders, animations but a couple of days ago, it started behaving weird. it only tries to save the level asset, nothing else…

why is this?

I can’t see any of my levels in the Content Browser!
I checked the folders - the files are there on the local drive.

But the levels are not listed inside the Content Browser.
I also checked all the filters.

I can not select the Level and Migrate, because the Content Browser doesn’t show them.

So what the heck can I do now?

Hi Bernhard,

please post the full path of one of your assets that you cannot see within the unreal engine.
Which Ue4 version do you use?

I’m having the same issue where I cant find my level, but my build data is there?

Its because you are trying to open that levels with an older version of Unreal than the version through which these levels were saved.
