save and load system using interface not working, unreal cant read save file

[justmakes]

Hi, I’ve been watching “The Ultimate Guide | How to Save & Load Your Unreal Engine 5 Game | UE5” by Ali Elzoheiry, but I am still not able to get my save game to load.

I’ve gone through it repeatedly and can’t figure out why mine isn’t working. I seem to successfully save the game and all the necessary data, but I always get an “invalid” error when trying to load the save. I can see that the save file is created, but Unreal always says it’s invalid.

Since it involves structs and interfaces, it’s pretty complex to explain, so I’ll upload a bunch of screenshots. I’m hoping someone familiar with this tutorial might spot something obvious I missed.

Iv deleted everything and remade it over and over all week and if i cant figure it out I will need to hire someone to do it for me lol

Please help?

Hi, make sure your game instance is set from your project setting:

Using function interface for game instance is kinda weird since game instance is always present and there only 1 instance of it.
I suggest going for Ryan tuto but that my personal preference

Hey, thanks for the suggestion I will take a look at that tutorial.

I think I figured out the solution, kind of.

The save and load events require delays. I don’t feel good about adding random delays just because it works, so I’ve set them as short as possible. It’s still a bit inconsistent, but I think my original issue is resolved.
