Troubleshooting
Q:My texture is white
A:Make sure you are using cooked assets and not source assets, cooked assets can be found in <Project>/Saved/Cooked/WindowsNoEditor/<Project-Name-Again>/
Q:I replaced materials and now I have a grid texture instead.
A:Unreal Engine 4 have a function called Material Flags, these are used for optimization purposes, enable the correct option that your material uses. You can find more information in here: https://docs.unrealengine.com/en-US/Engine/Rendering/Materials/MaterialProperties/index.html#usage
Q:Reignited crashes after replacing some stuff with my own mods. A:This can be due to many issues, making sure your unreal engine version is 4.19.2 and if it's a model replacement making sure entire model is merged into one is a good start.
Q:My model looks like a popsicle
Make sure you renamed your skeleton to Armature
with capital A before importing it to Unreal Editor.
* Another important part is to check for bone scales in Blender and Unreal Editor. In Unreal Engine main bone scale needs to be 1*
* For some models you need to remove SKEL_ files in u4pak process.
Q:My model is T-Posing in game
A:Make sure skeleton and physics assets are named exactly like original ones you're going to replace.
Q:Model resizes itself when playing animation
A:Make sure model's skeleton is sized correctly, if your model looks huge in Unreal Editor page.
Q:My replacement doesn't show up in the game
A:Make sure you replicated game structure in Unreal Editor and in U4PAK.
Q:My assets doesn't show up in cooked folder
A:Make sure you saved them in the Unreal Editor first, if you see a star shape at the left bottom of the asset's thumbnail it means it's not saved yet and will not be cooked.
Q:Deleting and empty folder in Unreal prompts references window. A:Use Fixup Redirector From Editor.
Q:Installed mod doesn't work.
A:Make sure you're using ~mods
folder to install your mods, placing mods in your Paks folder IS NOT RECOMMENDED and some mods ARE NOT GOING TO WORK.
Q:My sound replacements don't play.
A:Try changing Vorbis Quality to Low or Medium
Q:Files doesn't show up in cooked folder A:Make sure your files are saved first(no * symbol on thumbnails)
