Hey All.

My project has been working without any problems till that i decided to restart unreal engine.

Now i cant even open my project. :confused:

Any Suggestions? :slight_smile:

Hey there, would you mind showing me your code?

I am not good in reviewing these error logs, but it seems you are trying to access a Nullpointer in your GameMode.

If i can trust this log, then it happened in one of your OnScreenDebugMessages.

Hey.

Iā€™ve included code to first message. Thank you :slight_smile:

Hey,

ok first of all. Please make sure that ā€œGEngineā€ is not null.

Make an

if(GEngine)
{
    GEngine->AddOnScreen....;
}

Around every GEngine method you use. It could be that GEngine is still null when you call the constructor of the GameMode.

Second, try to use:

static ConstructorHelpers::FObjectFinder<UBlueprint> MyBlueprintObject(TEXT("Blueprint'/Game/Blueprints/BP_FPSCharacter.BP_FPSCharacter_C'"));

Instead of your classfinder. Since you want to find a Blueprint and use its class later, you will want to find the object first.

If this doesnā€™t solve the crash, then i would need some information on what the last you did was. (:

I think the error comes from trying to use AddOnScreenDebugMessage inside your constructor. Constructors are called even before the Editor is fully loaded (during the loading pop-up). My guess is that it tries to write the message onto the Editorā€™s screen, which hasnā€™t started yet and thus you are getting a crash.

Thanks.

But no luck so far :confused:

Iā€™ve updated the code as you mentioned. Iā€™ve removed all debug functions. :slight_smile: (OnScreenDebugMessages).

The last thing i did is creating blueprint based on my FPSCharacter. And then iā€™ve deleted previous GameMode blueprint.

Yeah. Finally. Iā€™ve fixed it.

What i missing was ā€œnot removing binary folderā€. :slight_smile: Iā€™ve removed it, then rebuilt the code. Thanks for your help.

Oh ok, glad to hear you solved it (:

I will go ahead an make your comment the solving answer.
