i’ve made a extra map in UE4 on the shooter game pre made, but i can’t seem to load it with the console after compiling it, i can open it with the console in the editor, is this a bug? do i need to do something?
a update: after tweaking some settings, and compiling w/o .pak files it seems that the compiler doesn’t compile the maps i added for some reason… is this a bug or something? also when you force add it (copying it from the project save to the compiled version) it doesn’t allow you to access it at all.
any ideas why this is happening?
p.s this is also happening for a map called “railway” which is basically a re-texture of sanctuary (planning on making a complete new version with sanctuary as base)
Do you mean you’re to open the map after cooking/packaging? Or do you mean you are trying to open the map while running as a standalone game? Also, what command are you trying to use when opening your map from console?
after packaging (for windows) and i’m trying to run the command “open Not_A_Suspicious_Map” (that’s the map name) it works when you’re in the editor but not the standalone client version
Does this issue still occur for you in the 4.2 or 4.2.1 release? If you are still experiencing it, please reply/bump this thread and we’ll be glad to investigate further.
bump anyways, adding a new map, saving it and then using the packaging tool doesn’t seem to work. do i need to add a reference to the map somewhere before the packager adds it to the game?
Hi! I had a similar issue, where I could load my other map in-editor, but not when running the final build.
The solution was to add the new level(s) to the DefaultEditor.ini
(Unreal Projects\Shooter Game 4.1\Config\DefaultEditor.ini)

Madhouse helped solve the issue, but thanks anyway
