When Launching Session, Fortnite gets stuck on Loading into Creative screen for around 5 minutes and then gives network connection error ever since the new Update came out. I haven’t been able to access my maps for two days in a row now. Occasionally it crashes as well. I have tried multiple steps including opening Fortnite before launching session and then start it but it does not help. I have seen few posts about it but now I am worried not everyone has this issue.

Just pressing Launch Session. I am in EU.

Observed Result
It gets stuck on Loading into Creative and then gives network connection lost.
When I try to get two testers on the project, the one on console manages to get into server while the one on PC (main/owner) does not manage to get into the project.
But it is quite important for me to backup updates since each version code is important for me to understand and revert back in case I have an error on build. I don’t think I want to disable it but thank you!
Hey, @Karo-Bube , thank you again, I have tried your method multiple times but unfortunetly its the same situation. I am just stuck on Loading into your Edit session, sometimes the game even crashes. It happend after the update and its so frustrating.
@thechironsson Did you follow the charge status in UEFN during the charging process in Fortnite? Sometimes the connectivity breaks down there and it helps if you then start again immediately in UEFN.
Otherwise, my sympathies - it’s really frustrating as a creator when the crafting tool doesn’t work properly (but I’m glad EPIC Games gives us such a great option - I think it will all improve)
Experiencing the exact same issue here. Can’t launch my islands for testing from UEFN. Disabling URC/Windows firewall didn’t make any difference unfortunately.
Hey @AtAshTag just tried that and still no luck. Thank you tho. The problem is still there, it happend after the last update and I have been seeing so many forum posts about this so I know I am not the only one who is in this position. I still believe its update related but interestingly other peoples maps just work so idk.
i think its deffo update related and i strongly feel that the update changed files and windows defender or your own anti virus doesn’t like it and blocks it
I don’t wanna show my firewall things on here for obv reasons but deffo check to ensure its not blocking anything related to epic.
I had the exact same issues like a replica and thats what caused mine so i somewhat feel you have the same issue
a quick google search will show how to check on any program or windows default one
Is they a web address related to the system when you launch session people can copy and paste into their web browser to check if its being blocked by virus software ???
This would be so good for people if they was something the team could suggest
@thechironsson also ensure you verify the installation i did this also
@AtAshTag Yeah I have verifed my files, reinstalled the game, check my internet stability, checked my firewall, I even did find a thread where they discussed it could be AM5 motherboard related, and some people got their issue fixed by updating the BIOS. I did update it and its still the same. So I am more on update related problem here. But I will dig deeper about the firewall like you mentioned to see if we could get anywhere.
i hope you get it sorted all i know is that i had the same issue and it could be a coincidence but since i did it yest i haven’t had issues albeit i have only launched a couple of times
Update:
It did still not let me in the session 1 time
Also still crashing Fortnite randomly when i end the game
try that
maybe this help you
