This was noise. The solution was that we had some Niagara in our project where the Effect had been reset to “None”. Changing the effect back to “Default” allowed me to launch a session again. ![image](https://d3kjluh73b9h9o.cloudfront.net/original/4X/0/2/2/022903ec5cb34417efee17267e0de155dcb505a5.jpeg) ![image](https://d3kjluh73b9h9o.cloudfront.net/original/4X/f/6/7/f670c62aab64e22d7ac0a2c075de547520406c8e.png) ---

Thanks for the solution … it was our problem after the latest update. An old Niagra effect that was missing a deprecated function that I needed to replace with the most current. Solve Rotational Force and Velocity was the effect ---

Mine was also failing because of a depriceated “Initialize Particle” function. I added the new “Initialize Particle” function, made the appropriate adjustments, and it worked. Your comment helped me. Thank you. ---
