After Downloading the editor and creating a project, you can test the upload flow by uploading the example maps.
Click the Upload Content button in the toolbar.
This button will open the upload window as shown below:
Here you can configure:
An optional upload description, which is displayed in the dashboard.
The levels you want uploaded. Selecting fewer levels will take less time.
Once you're done, click the Upload button.
For your first upload, this will open a browser for authentication - make sure to use the account you used to login to the website.
After login the upload will begin, with progress tracked in the top-right of the modal.
Once the upload completes, click the View upload in dashboard button:
This button will open the dashboard page for your uploaded content, which we call a Mod.
A Mod is a representation of your cooked Unreal content in our web platform.
When you first upload, we'll automatically create a new mod for you. Your uploaded content represents the first version of your mod. The next time you iterate and upload, that content will be listed as a new version of your existing mod. Note - We only store the cooked version of your assets, not the raw versions, so this is not a replacement for source code version control (i.e. you can't download your project from the uploaded assets).
Click the 🚀 Launch
button (below your mod title) to launch a world using your content.
To create your own map, it's easiest to:
Open NewTemplateMap
.
File > Save Current Level As and rename it to make it your own.
Edit > Project Settings > Game > M2 World Builder > Upload > Maps > Index [0] > Map and change the map to yours.
This section in Project Settings dictates what maps are visible in the web UI for any given version of a mod.
Back in the editor toolbar, click Upload Content
again. Notice that your map is now the one included in the upload.
Once uploaded, in the web UI, you should see a new version of your mod with your map uploaded.
After uploading your content, you should try and Worlds
Multiple plugins
LogWorldBuilderEditorUtils: Error: Multiple plugins found to upload.
This error occurs when you have more than one project plugin without OriginLibrary: true
in the plugin descriptor.
A legacy restriction on the platform is that only one plugin is designated to be cooked and uploaded. This is no longer the case as dependencies are built from the maps selected for upload however the restriction of only one 'primary' plugin existing is still in place.
By default, all libraries created using the above flow will have this tag and do not need to be modified however, if you manually copy a new plugin into your project, you are likely to see this error.
To solve this error:
Open each .uplugin file within <your-project-dir>/plugins/
in a text editor
Ensure that all-but-one of your project plugins have the tag OriginLibrary: true
