Hi,
Recently I started with Unreal Engine, but I’m having a lot of problems since I converted my project to C++ from Blueprint. When I though I had finally solved the issue and started moving forward in the course, the editor isn’t saving my progress.
Today I opened the editor to discover that my previous progress isn’t saved. First, I created a folder in Content called Blueprints. In the following screenshot you can see the editor isn’t loading the folder, even when it does exists.
Reading other posts I discover that I could access my assets from File → Recent assets, and luckily there was the previous BP I had done in my previous class of the course. When I opened it, the folder finally loaded in Content and I was able to access the assets from there.
The problem now comes when I edit the level since it isn’t saving any change I do to it, so I will describe what I’m doing, the result, and what I’m expecting. Maybe my expectation is the problem.
I’m editing the same level that comes with the Third Person template. I’m directing draging my asset into the level → adjust position → Play → Stop. From here, I don’t encounter any problem, and once I finish testing I try to save my progress. I think I should mention that the editor isn’t showing the asterisk in the name of the level which indicates that there has been a change that isn’t saved, but the floppy disc in the right bottom is still marking the unsaved changes.
So I have tried the following methods of saving my progress in the level unsuccessfully:
- File → Save Current Level
- File → Save Current Level As… → Content → Third Person → Maps → ThirdPersonMap → Replace
- File → Save All
- File → Choose Files to Save → Select my asset → Saved Selected
- Click the floppy disc in the bottom right
In all the options the system doesn’t throw any error, but when I close the editor and open again the project, the changes aren’t saved and I have the following error:
“The world contains invalid actor files. Click to Repair button to repair them”.
The button doesn’t solve anything and I go back to step one. Can anyone help me solve this issue? I really appreciate it. Thanks in advance to anyone who answers.
