hi,
i create an game in ue based on the first person blueprint- template.
it runs fine in ue4.4.3 but after i installed ue4.6.1 the engine crashes sometimes during loading the level
and the player stucks during his walking-process.
i heard/read a few posts, on which is an similiar problem with ue4.6.1.
thie 4.6-versions don´t seem to be very stable.
for my opinion it could be an way to go back to ue4.4.3 and go on with my project… waiting for an stable version.
you know, i´m an noob and i really dont´know, if i´m the problem or maybe the lightmap-size or something eklse, which makes my player stuck
+1 From me, I’ve converted my project from 4.4 to 4.6 and i have similar problems (crashing, sometimes weird glitches) - maybe we should create a new project in 4.6.1 and migrate all our assets, instead of converting a project? Btw. try to rebuild navmesh if player stucks, mine sometimes is also stuck, because level “un-builds” itself without reason.
Ah, i don’t know if you use navmesh (as for FPP game) yet - but try to just click “Build” - it helped when my player couldn’t move. You can also check if there are some objects nearby, maybe they’re blocking you with their collision. I’m also waiting for something stable, but i’m thinking about creating a new project and migrating all my blueprints. You also can try to create a new project with FPP template and migrate your stuff. (right click on asset → Migrate) Maybe it will help.
but when i create an new project, i can migrate my content from my old contentbrowser into my new one.
but i lose all my actor/sm-placements from the scene outliner…
and thats a lot of work…
I’ve read somewhere that there may be a difference between project CONVERTED from (for example) 4.4 to 4.6 and project CREATED in 4.6.1 with migrated assets. But i don’t know if that’s true or if it will help. You can always try creating a completely new project in 4.6.1 and migrate (copy) all your work, so you’ll not lose anything.

Maybe the movement component, which is used in FPP template could changed in 4.6 and maybe that’s why it causes some problems right now (because it’s a 4.4 version trying to work with 4.6 engine) - just a blind guess.
