Yesterday, my disk was running out of space while working on a level and I couldn’t save some of it so i tried moving my Unreal Project folder to my D:\ drive. I reopened my project there but the level I was working on somehow didn’t transfer so I relocated it back to my C drive.
While I was retransferring it, Unreal somehow made a duplicate of my level in the C drive so I just clicked “Replace duplicate files” on the popup I got which was probably a mistake cause when I opened up my level, some assets have gone missing and I can’t reload some of them
My foliage won’t show up. Instead, all I’m getting is this error in my Outliner, “InstancedFoliageActor 9_8_-8 (Unloaded)”. I tried looking up how to fix this and one of the options is to drag said unloaded actor into the World Partition, click “Load Selected Region” and it would work again. I tried that but it wouldn’t let me drag it in.
Another one said to right click the unloaded actor and select Pin but the pin option is unclickable for me.
Does anyone know how to recover lost files? I worked hard on this and I don’t want to lose my progress!
