Control Rig Animation Saved. How to edit?

Need help to edit existing animations :\ I feel stupid for asking, cause it is probably straight forward!

What I done successfully:

  • Dragged the CR to the existing level, it opened the sequencer;
  • I added the keys, did my thing…
  • Managed to create a simple slide animation with the existing CR;
  • saved it as explained in this tutorial (from min 51 forward): How to Animate Characters in UE5 - YouTube
  • Used UE5 and the sequencer.

My issue: Went back to edit and improve upon… But it doesn’t open the same sequence with the keys…

Edit. Issue 2: When I click the “+” to choose any animation the engine crashes. I assumed the project was corrupted at this point… So created a new one! Same results!

What am I doing wrong?
Every tuto I find about editing, they never close the sequencer and re-open the animation to edit! They keep it open, within the same coding-session. Creating and Modifying Control Rig | Course

Current solution (for those whose engine is not crashing -_-)

How to create animation with forward solve: Creating and Modifying Control Rig | Course

Edit with additive Layers. This seams to be the solution that doesn’t break the workflow: Creating and Modifying Control Rig | Course

Bonus. I don’t like this solution to edit as much, but if it helps any one… go for it: Creating and Modifying Control Rig | Course

The “Open level sequence” option/solution. It only works for as long as the level sequencer is open (I am assuming this only works during the coding-session, when you close UE, it is gone…)

All I need to solve now… is the UE crashing -_-
