    Hi! When I transfer my project (2018.2.0b9) to any official version of Unity, my scene is missing almost all of the game objects. Each game object is labeled as "Missing Prefab".

    Is this a known issue, and also, does anyone know potential causes/fixes? Thanks!

    Down grading has never been supported. Doing so from a beta, just assume something is going to break because it often will. I had the same issue going back to 2018.1 so in this case it looks like some internal data structures around prefabs changed.

    If I upgrade and I think I'm going to stay a while, I first downgrade the project to see what will break then upgrade again before doing any real work in the new version.

    And of course commit your work before doing any of that. Just get in the habit of it unless it's a throw away project.
