When I export a project to a .zip file, and immediately try to import it, it gives an error. I was doing this to test if I can re-import a project backup.
My steps:
The downloaded zip file:
Importing that same .zip:
Importing error:
Could I get some help please? Thanks. Is the importer or exporter broken?

Hmm, that should work. Can you try renaming the file to test.zip and importing that please?

If that doesn’t work, do you have any errors on the master branch like the ones shown in this thread?
There is a infrequent bug that we have been unable to reproduce on our team where users are unable to delete entities in the scene and will have some error when opening the Editor like this:
Cannot find child entity 2fba0d54-fba5-4aae-bfc4-7c56602ec495 of parent "Root" (3272fa01-fd89-11eb-9b62-026349a27a7c)
This is because there is an extra entity under the parent entity that doesn’t exist.
To fix this, you can do the following:
Make a checkpoint
Branch off the checkpoint
Switch to the new …
If so, can you fix those first (using the solutions in the thread) and try exporting/importing again please?
If that still doesn’t work, please can you add ‘yaustar’ to the project and I take a look tomorrow
Renaming to test.zip gives the same error. I just tried exporting/importing a barebones project and it
worked, so the issue seems to be with my specific project.
I got importing working after merging everything to the master branch. Looks like that fixed it. Thanks for your help!
