Hi, i just have a little problem. I have this blueprint project that i’m using to learn more the code, but when i save it, close and reopen all the work i did before closing is gone. Is it a problem with the drive?
You’ll want to make sure you don’t have multiple of the same project open at once.
If you’re talking about C++ coding, make sure to compile from the IDE while unreal is closed. Sometimes Unreal won’t save changes compiled through live-coding after you’ve closed the editor.
thanks for the answer, but this was not it. I don’t have any other instance of the projects open, and i’m testing a little project with blueprints, so no c++ involved.
It’s possible that the problem you’re experiencing is related to the way you’re saving your project or the location where you’re saving it.
- Make sure you’re saving your project by going to “File” > “Save All” or by pressing “Ctrl + Shift + S” instead of just “Ctrl + S” which only saves the current level and not the project.
- Make sure you’re saving your project to a location that is not on a temporary drive or a location that is prone to be deleted by the operating system, such as the Desktop or the Downloads folder. It’s best to save your project in a dedicated folder on a hard drive that you use for your projects.
- Also, check the autosave settings in the editor preferences and make sure they are enabled and set to save frequently.
- Check if there’s any error message or pop up that is blocking the save process or if there’s any plugin or add-on that is causing the problem.
- Try saving the project with a different name to see if the problem is related to the name of the project.
- If none of the above steps help, try verifying the integrity of your project file, as it may have become corrupted. You can do this by going to File > Save As and then save the project with a new name.
If none of these steps help, it might be worth checking your computer for any hardware or software issues that could be causing the problem. Make sure your computer meets the system requirements for Unreal Engine, and that it is not running low on disk space.
I have seen that this thing only happens on the level blueprint, all other assets are saved. What may be the problem?
Hmm, have you saved the level properly? I know that the level saving sometimes gets corrupted. It keeps want to save the level, even though I just have saved the level.
i don’t know man i just press save all it won’t save, changed also the project’s name
where is the project saved? If is in the C:drive you may have issues with administrator permissions.
it’s an external drive, i didn’t specify it was external at the start
Btw 900GB free, not space problem
