[LAUNCHING SESSION] - MAJOR Issue

Summary

After the latest season dropped today, there seems to be a huge problem with launching any sessions.
I have a UEFN Project that was initially named “DoNotFallDown” in UEFN. However, with the public launch the name was changed to “Block Drop Arena”.
When logging in today and trying to launch a session, I kept getting this error message:

“VersePath field ‘/localhost/DoNotFallDown’ of uplugin file ‘C:/Users/…/Fortnite Projects/DoNotFallDown/Plugins//DoNotFallDown.uplugin’ is expected to match project Verse path ‘/questbox@fortnite.com/Block_Drop_Arena’”

I also tried changing the local project name to match the error message (“Block Drop Arena”), as well as changing the .uplugin file to the target value (/questbox@fortnite.com/Block_Drop_Arena’) - with either one of these changes I did not receive the error. However, this results in connection error (when launch session is clicked and connecting commences inside Fortnite) from what I assume is the project not finding the correct files to download to the local user session.

I believe it is somewhat caused by what this bug was trying to fix - Can’t launch session (GetFilenameOnDisk returned a non-matching filename) - #12 by Jimbohalo10

Steps to Reproduce

I assume this can be reproduced by creating a new project locally, publishing it under a new name and then trying to launch a local session with the project being named the previous one.

Expected Result

Game launches successfully - my project was working completely fine until the new Season dropped. This is 100% a fact because I was working with the project up until the servers went down and it was launching just fine.

Observed Result

I receive error ‘“VersePath field ‘/localhost/DoNotFallDown’ of uplugin file ‘C:/Users/…/Fortnite Projects/DoNotFallDown/Plugins//.uplugin’ is expected to match project Verse path ‘/questbox@fortnite.com/Block_Drop_Arena’”’.
Local session is not launched.

The status of FORT-779763 incident has been moved from ‘Needs Triage’ to ‘Closed’. Resolution Reason: ‘Cannot Reproduce’

Editing that file to what it expects works

I tried it already, but it had no effect.
After I changed it to match what it says, no errors were given when launching, but while downloading the project inside Fortnite while waiting in ‘the box’, the session goes back to Fortnite lobby after some time and UEFN displays “Session disconnected”.

the “Session disconnected” is most likely unrelated to the original VersePath problem

1 Like

upon opening the project, UEFN is supposed to automatically update the uplugin file VersePath if it doesn’t match the project Verse path
I’m very much interested in any information/logs that could help figure out why it’s happening in some cases

It was fine before the update.
And yes, opening the project does update the uplugin file. But I got the matchmaking error and back to the lobby everytime I press the Launch Session

Our major project, which is set to be released in two days, is encountering issues, and without clear error messages, we are at a loss for what to do…

Another issue with this update is that the entire lobby randomly freezes and then players get sent back to the lobby.
(not sure if it happens on all maps)

I can create new world from blank template and launch it just fine. I can even launch larger projects that have been published for months without errors.

But on this project I was working on yesterday I get the cook error today. :frowning:

Yep, this is also happening on our map. Players freezes in place and everyone gets kicked back to lobby (map 7263-8300-7933)

Hi All,
Running the game 7314-4269-5911 get a ping rate of max 263ms there was a glitch of >400 ms
Launch in Creative fine and stay in game but red lines and wireless red icon.
Still just very laggy like Battle Royale this morning.
Fell back to lobby in BR 0800 utc gmt, 1940 GMT 1141PT

This is similar ping 265 ms on Creative

I found the cause! Any of the Niagaras present in the project were adversely affected!
After deleting all the Niagara in the project, the session loaded!

After deleting all our Niagara’s in our game we got this to work. Thanks!

Cannot launch edit session for project intended to launch with new season. Fails out with a cook failure;

The project was uploaded and unlisted during 30.40, tested and prepared to launch (Private Version Code 3906-8483-6804 ). With 31.00 clients cannot connect and play the map.

I have fixed all validation issues for all assets in the project (ctrl-a all assets and run validation runs clean), I have also speculatively tested deleting all niagara assets, neither resolves the issue. Waiting on a fix from Epic to get this project out.

The game fixed itself today without me changing anything :man_shrugging:

hi Fortnite servers taken down at 00:00 GMT emergency shutdown. Battle Royal died with 40 people they had to fix it :+1:
Now you see the power of voting up a problem together :joy:
