Can't save, Graph is linked to private object(s) in an external package.

Hello,
Below the message I get when I try to save from the editor.

**Can’t save …/…/…/…/…/…/Users/Name/Documents/Unreal Projects/DissertationTesting/Content/FirstPersonBP/Maps/FirstPersonExampleMap.umap: Graph is linked to private object(s) in an external package.
External Object(s):
MySaveGame_C_1
/Engine/Transient

Try to find the chain of references to that object (may take some time)?**

What I do is basically draw a render target and save the variable using a Bluetility so that once I play the render target is loaded in the proper object, if I don’t load it up from file, when I press play it just clean and reset the render target.

All my blueprint save without any issue but the .umap is giving me error.

Any clue?

Thanks

Davide

Hey davi211,

This sort of error can be caused by a few different things, which can often make it difficult to track down. What I would recommend doing is spending some time looking over other threads to see if any other users have a solution for your issue, as it is likely specific to a certain asset.

Here’s a link where I performed a search for your error. Instead of linking the numerous threads here, I figured it would be easier for you to browse the search filter yourself.

Let me know if you have any further questions regarding this, or if you come up with a repro case for the issue and I’ll be glad to continue investigating.

Have a great day

Hi Sean,

I just found the reason, Basically I was trying to save my “save game” blueprint in a variable which in the picture is Save T.

However once I got rid of it it started to work no problem.

Glad you got it working. Do you need any further assistance with this issue or is it good for the time being?

It seams everything is working as expected, so I’m fine thanks for the help :slight_smile:

Have a good day
