Can't open project anymore

Yesterday I was working on my project. Today when I tried to open it it always shut down at 93% whitout opening a crash report. After searching in the internet i verified my Engine version and deleted the assets I suspected to cause the problem. Then I reloaded the asset from the backup folder and everything was fine. It was possible to open the project and recreate the version from yesterday. However, when I closed and reopened the project again I was stuck at the same point as before.
So I started to redo every little change step by step and always closing/restarting the Project. Like this I discovered, that the problem is the variable of the player character reference. It is enough to only create the variable, I don’t even need to use it to create the problem.

What can I do to fix that?

Are you using any sort of source control that you could use to revert those files back?

I’am not quite sure if I understood your question right. But what I did to get an older version of the files, was to search them in my project folder under saved\backup.
And for now I just used an actor variable as a workaround. But I’d still like to know why these problems occured to avoid them in the future^^

Can you post the error code that you get when it crashes? I had a similar issue not too long ago… and it ended up being a null pointer/reference. I think the error code for that was c0000001 or c0000005.

Does it create a crash report file? If yes where do I find it?
Because the usual crash report pop up doesn’t appear. It just stops opening the project.

You’ll find a log file at projectdir/Saved/Logs/projectname.log

Now I’am totaly confused.
I created the exact same variable with the exact same name in order to reproduce the crash once more so I could look at the error code. But this time it just works fine. How can that be? I was always able to get it to crash with this variable.

Hey train0fpain,

Are you still experiencing the crash? If so, can you please provide a detailed list of repro steps along with the logs from your project’s Saved->Logs folder after the crash occurs?

No, I wasn’t able to reproduce the crash :confused:

As a result of you being unable to reproduce the crash anymore, I’m going to mark this thread as resolved. If you begin to experience the crash again, please feel free to post a comment to reopen the thread and we can continue to investigate.

Have a great day
