This is not a bug, you don’t publish your projects from inside the client.

You just have to press the Publish Project button inside uefn inside the project dropdown

Hello, thank you very much for your reply. I know that’s the standard publishing method, but back then in UEFN, you could capture lobby backgrounds using a free camera, and the file would save directly to a UEFN folder… and the option to do this was in that “Media” tab.
