I’m a beginner and I can’t discover what is my mistake. When run Open Level module always does message log “CreateWidget called with a null class.” Please someone knows a solution? ![image](https://d3kjluh73b9h9o.cloudfront.net/original/4X/4/2/a/42a4b77c1b4fcb1c44415d0e45944b5fcc52e8c9.png) Thanks. ---

Try open level by name. Just to remove that from the equation? ---

I’ve tried with open level by name with the same result. Not understand your question, sorry but my English isn’t very well… ---

Does this level add a widget to the screen? Have you specified the type of widget? ---

No, this level I try to open hasn’t a widget, for this reason I don’t understand. I tried to open other levels even new levels just creates and always I have the same result. ---

Wherever you have specified your game mode, project settings or world settings, I wonder if the HUD you’ve specified there has a problem. Try just clearing that ![image](https://d3kjluh73b9h9o.cloudfront.net/original/4X/c/e/d/ced1db881654db6912eed60a460e3ae549717886.png) ---

I’ve tested with different options of GameMode with the same result. Then I’ve created a new MenuLevel, BP Interface menu and even a new level to call it by button into new interface and again the same error. But at that moment I’ve thought … I have a different plugins installed for testing and probably something still be enabled … that was it!!! I had the CommonLoadingScreen plugin enabled and when I’ve disabled it all it works again!!! Thanks a lot for your knowledge and help. ---
