Summary

When trying to convert an island from Creative Mode (1.0) to UEFN, the project is coming up completely empty. I just lost two important old projects this way, and now I no longer have access to them in Creative Mode, and in UEFN they are empty.

I had this issue myself, I was able to fix it by converting to the new TODM in Creative 1.0 and backing up the island, then converting to UEFN

I have had the same issue. The island was not even showing up in Creative Hub in FNC. I converted to UEFN in the Creator Portal after ‘un-archiving’, and was left with a blank project.

I have another copy in Creator Portal, but I’m too scared to convert it as I fear the project will be lost (I can’t access in FNC either).

Would love to be able to take old FNC projects into UEFN rather than having to build them again from scratch.
