I am questioning about a full project rename. Is it even possible?
I do know, that you can change the “display name”, but it is still not it.
I tried to somehow fully change this through changing some folders’ and files’ names. Yeah, I even tried to change the names in this txt file.
Aaand this was a bad idea… I’ve literally collapsed my whole project by doing so. It started showing different errors instead of opening. Yes, I am dumb. But we all make mistakes. At least after I brought back the original names back to where I changed them, I somehow fixed everything, except for one thing. The project started getting validation errors or smth llike that, so I wasn’t able to launch a game with those. Only with the help of the error log I somehow figured out, that in that txt file I had to change some id, that for some reason changed when I changed names. (Idk how to better explain this).
Anyway. After nearly losing my whole project and finding 0 solution to how to change the name of it, I am now here. Seeking for any info about this, cause I didn’t find a single mentioning about how to do it or if it is even possible. (I only found some guide about how to change an Unreal Engine project name, but those differ).
I guess some people might have gotten in a same situation, when they just didn’t think about naming their project, when they first created it and are left with “MyProject”.
I didn’t think about proper name for my project too. But instead called it by some other game’s name, as the gamemode in the project was inspired by that game. Now, when I am on a finish line, of course I am thinking of a name for this project. But found out, that I have no idea how to get rid of the old name being mentioned.
This naming issue definetely needs some guide. Or if it is impossible to fully rename your project, it needs to be addressed better.
Hope to get any answer.
