My project won't open (no error message)

Hi,

I was working on my project and tried to import some content file from an other third person project to my first person project. I just copied 2 of them (ThirdPerson, ThirdPersonBP folders)

After doing that, my project loads until 93%… then the engine doesn’t start closing the editor initializing window, without any crash report or anything.

I tried to delete these two folders, but nothing changed…

I really need help!

Go to your unreal projects folder (default is documents\unrealprojects) and rename your “Saved” folder to “SavedGlitch” then try to load the project again. The Saved directory contains backup data etc. so if this has corrupted data it might be causing the problem.

If you want to import content from one project to another, always open the project you want to pull from first and then in the Content Browser, right click on the files you want to take and choose “Asset Actions” and then “Migrate” then point to the Content folder of your project. This way the engine moves everything related to the files for you without missing anything which might cause errors. Copy and pasting directories inside Windows Explorer is the easiest way to mess up your project.
