Hey all,
I’ve been working on a project with UE4.2 and since 4.3 came out I’d like to move over to the newer version. Are their any rules of thumb for doing so that I should pay attention to?
Cheers
Hi reedandrader,
Things should convert fine when you move to a newer version of the engine. There are possibilities of things changing, but these should be minimal if at all.
A good rule of thumb though is to backup everything you have! When you go to open the project with 4.3 you’ll get a list of options for how you would like to proceed.
By clicking “open a copy” this will create a clone and port it over to the version of the engine you are opening it with. It will leave your 4.2 version intact and unaffected.
If you run into problems with your conversion and it’s causing issues make sure to post each issue (if they’re not all related directly) as separate questions on the AnswerHub.
Thank you!
Tim
