I upgraded my project to 4.11 because of a bug with distance shadows. Well it failed spectacularly. Here was the error:

Any Ideas?
This thread is similar but I don’t have that folder to delete and I think its another error anyways

Hello,

  • Could you please provide the logs from your project’s Saved->Logs folder?
  • Are you using a particularly large map file as specified in the post you linked?
  • Have you tried deleting your Saved and Intermediate folders before converting your project over?
