Internal Cooker Error

Hello there @SweatyPika!

Checking around the community, the error you are getting is not tied to your project or system. It’s actually related to Epic’s cloud cooking service failing to cook (“errors.com.epicgames.cookplugin.cookfailure”).

Since your project was inactive for a year, it is most likely full of outdated content (old plugins, modules, deprecated assets, etc). In order to get your project up to date, please do the following:

  • Open the project in the latest UE version, and allow it to update assets/plugins
  • Check your currently enabled plugins, and disable anything that has falled out of support
  • Go to your project’s main directory, and delete folders Saved/, Intermediate/, and DerivedDataCache/, in order to force a cache clear

These steps should get your project back to a working state.
