Hello there, gamedev gurus!
I’m tweaking the main menu settings: music, graphics, localization, etc.
I’ve encountered a problem saving the changed settings.
First, when I change the sound and click the “Apply Changes” button, the sound disappears. It doesn’t matter what the slider is set to. But when I reopen the widget, everything resets to the default values. I don’t know why the Save Game to Slot isn’t being overwritten.
Second, the following error appears when I exit the game:
As I understand it, the engine can’t retrieve the parameter from the BP_SettingsSave class. Why? I don’t understand. The error sends me to the first Set function of the “Apply Changes” button.
Third, the same thing happens when saving parameters in the “WBP_Video” widget. The only difference is that the parameters actually change in-game (for example, I can turn off shadows or change the screen resolution. The settings are saved when I reopen the game). Only the text doesn’t change; it resets every time. The exceptions are the same: it complains about Save Game to Slot.
Here’s my code:
-
BP_Settings - the class contains different values of other classes that I want to save;
-
WBP_Settings - the class contains widget swithcer with oter 3 classes (WBP_Game, WBP_Video, WBP_Audio). And the logic for loading saved settings when opening the widget is also written here;
-
WBP_Video - the class contains logic of load or creation of Save Slot “Settings_Video”;
-
WBP_Audio - the class contains logic of load or creation of Save Slot “Settings_Audio” (the continuation is into Graphs because there is a lot of “pasta” there);
-
WBP_MainMenuButton > F_ApplyButton - the class contains “Apply Changes” button. It’s a separate function in the other widget “WBP_MainMenuButton”.
-
BP_SettingsSave:
- WBP_Settings:
- WBP_Video:
- WBP_Audio:
- WBP_MainMenuButton > F_ApplyButton:
If you need more information, I can provide more code.
I’d be very grateful for your help
