I’ve been messing around on the Landscape Mountains example, working on various survival-based things, the map was a decent playground.
However, since I updated to 4.7.6 from 4.7.5, the map is now gone. I can load the editor, but I’m just welcomed by a black screen and I can’t find the map anywhere to load it.
Is there any way to remedy this or will I need to re-make the project?
Hi Dealman,
Are you on Windows or Mac? Additionally, does this occur on a blank project with no additional content or is it limited to the Landscape Mountains demo?
I’m on Windows 7, 64-Bit.
It would appear that only Landscape Mountains was affected, and only the map was removed - nothing else.
If you go to File>Open Level is the map still present in the level list?
That’s a negative, I can’t find it anywhere; neither via the editor nor via explorer.
Are you able to create a new map in that project or does it prevent you from doing this as well?
I can create new maps just fine
Unfortunately I don’t know what caused this and have not been able to reproduce this on my end. However, if all you need is the landscape mountains map, you can create a second landscape mountains demo project, migrate the .umap from that project to your project, then delete the second project so it isn’t taking up space on your harddrive. This would give you access to the landscape mountains without having to re-do the work you have already done unless you have made significant changes to the map itself.
I didn’t have all too many changes to the map, so I’ll go ahead and do that.
It’s not really a big issue, I just thought I’d raise the question. Seems quite odd that the update would remove that map only
Hi Dealman,
It is very strange, however I haven’t been able to reproduce this effect on my end. I’m going to mark this as answered for now for tracking purposes. If this occurs for you again, please comment and let me know what steps were taken just before the map disappeared and I’ll be happy to take another look.
