I managed to solve this problem by deleting actors until the map loaded correctly, after that load a backup with all the actors as they were, that is, a version without deleting anything, and since the project size already loaded thanks to that “lighter” version, it will now always load, the only negative thing is that every time the project size is reset, either by a game update or island restart, the error could appear again and I would have to repeat the same step over and over again until Epic Games completely fixes it :c

Hey folks, we’re going to need UEFN logs to investigate. Could you either post them here or DM them to me?

Hi, could we please get a progress update on this issue? It’s been ongoing since the Star Wars season was released, and I haven’t been able to work on my project because of it. I really hope the next update will resolve the problem, as I currently can’t enter the game to continue development.
