How can you delete reference in the reference Viewer?

Hey guys, I am currently working on game that use some of the assets of the ShooterGame example; everything is working fine except that I got a error message when I open the editor telling me that it cannot find references to /Script/ShooterGame.

Attached here is a screenshot of the reference viewer in UE4, I was wondering if there is a simple way to remove all these references to /Script/ShooterGame.

This is indeed a bit hard to handle. I wrote a script some time ago that converts Epics games into a new one. For example from ShooterGame to MyGame, this way you could then pickup the stuff you require. I will post the script on github soon.

Would love to know if this is possible too. Or is there another way to delete bad references?

Hello.
Since I have the same problem, did you find a way to delete such bad references ?

To get rid of the wrong references you can add within the DefaultEngine.ini

[/Script/Engine.Engine]
+ActiveGameNameRedirects=(OldGameName="/Script/ShooterGame",NewGameName="/Script/XXXXXXXX")
+ActiveGameNameRedirects=(OldGameName="ShooterGame",NewGameName="XXXXXXXX")

I know this does not remove the reference, but it will redirect script from the ShooterGame or other projects.
