RELEASE NOTES
We are moving to a new release system where the notes will no longer be handle assembled and instead come for the system Unreal uses for release notes. This will increase the speed and accuracy in which the notes are delivered.
Content Library
- Bug Fix: Fixed broken level actors after a Content Library actor has spawned.
Creative
- Hiding compass UI in Creative Edit
- Fix issue with preview actors being sent to UEFN.
- Bug Fix: Issue causing the Creative Play flow to not work in projects when refreshed (Start Game button is missing).
- Bug Fix: “Stop Game” button is no longer available after disconnecting Creative Edit session and reconnecting during match in progress.
Devices
- Only one Experience Settings device can exist at a time now.
- Video Player: Adding missing PID to expose to UEFN inventory.
- Cinematic Sequence: Set properties to “UserOptions|Basic” and enable SaveGame.
- Bug Fix: Fixing various audio player bugs.
Editor
- Show additional object changes in the undo history.
- Expose a selection of Physical Materials to UEFN.

- Submitting 22.35 localization for testing.
- Deprecating the “Empty Project” project template with the introduction of the “Empty Level” partitioned map template.
- Dialog now appears blocking user from upload until every asset has been saved. Uploads to not take place from the in-memory version of assets, they must all be saved to disk first. (This repairs the workflow where Creative Edit changes disappear when pushing new changes)
