only thing I modified was installing Luo’s GPU lightmass to use it instead of using Epic’s plugin

aside of that , I created and downloaded as well a “follow spline BP” to test it on cars or any actors, I tried every tutorial but nothing happens when I press play or simulate.

Any help would be appreciated, the reason I put topics in the same one, was because I was wondering if I did a corrupt install or something wrong that may have caused unreal to not work properly.

Thanks for any help

hello , fixed it , in case anyone is intrested , I’ve clicked “verify” in the launcher for my unreal version , I think it checks corrupted file and fix them for you, now material editor works.

hey
I am actually having this EXACT issue, but i cant see the verify option you talk about - is this in the EPIC Games Launcher // Library // Engine verion?

or on the Editor side when selecting from the templates?

i cant find “verify” anywhere

The ‘verify’ option didn’t work for me, but for those seeking to try and can’t find Verify, click down arrow next to launch…
