Grass still not working as intended after the v40.10 update came out

[TheDamianDamy]

Summary

Hey all so I’ve came on here to report a bug that I’ve been experiencing for a little while since the v40.00 update came out where the grass completely disappeared during my play session of UEFN but could clearly be seen working in the editor preview. The grass I’ve been using the whole time is landscape grass and I just do not know how I can possibly make it work again.

I’ve tried updating my driver’s, reinstalling them, reinstalled uefn and I had all settings set to Epic and the highest possible settings yet still nothing. The v40.10 update rolled out, took these pics of some bit of grass that appeared and when I relaunched the play session again after this, the grass completely disappeared again.

Expected Result

I would like my grass back fully please.

Observed Result

I reinstalled UEFN, reinstalled and updated my driver’s, set my settings all to Epic and still nothing.

I have basically the same issue. I like need my grass to show up in-game and simply work properly. It’s the most significant and noticible visual part of my terrain design. The landscape without the grass and 3D rocks feels emptier and lifeless.

I can’t even publish my game in this state, it’s just terrible, the terrain looks like unfinished mess. Even the terrain HLOD generation is broken. Now it’s simply the worst time trying to make Openworlds.

I’ll check on the status here.

@TheDamianDamy Could we get your island code so we can take a look?

[Flak]

Could we get one from you as well?

I’ve restarted my game a few times and it seems like the grass will show up after some time, but I found a few chunks that will simply not render grass even after multiple restarts. The bugged chunks are always the same (Like on the same places).
On my map the bugged chunks are especially around the map and every chunk that is bugged is either touching water or has a sand layer.

Here is the code: 3219-2663-0382

You can maybe find some bugged chunks around my location: Wasdone Shipwreck
