Bug [SOLVED] All Visual Effects Graphs are empty after Unity update

Hi,

I'm using a lot of visual effects in my project and after I updated my project from 2022.2.1f1 to 2022.2.3f1 I recognized that all my Visual Effects Graphs are not working anymore.

Thei are all empty if I open them.


But if I open the file in notepad, I see the effect description.


If I now do:



All files are emtied and I have to revert the content to get it back.

Is there any known issue regarding my Problem? VFX Graph is at version 14.0.5



Any idea how I can rescue my effects, it would be a problem if they are are gone and I fear this will lead to remove the vfx graph from my project. What would be very sad, because I love it and until now it worked without any serious problem.

Hi,

I tried several things, but nothing worked:
- deinstalled unity and installed it again
- deinstalled vfx package and installed it again
- removed all .meta files from the visual effect prag files

So the only thing left was to check out the project completely new and now it works.
Seems to be that there was something missconfigured after updating unity, but now it works again.

To theoretically solved

 

Having the same problem. What do you mean exactly with "check out the project completely"? Still didn't manage to get any of my effects back!

 

Hi, I meant I cloned my git repository at an other location on my local drive and added this project to the unity hub. After it it worked for me again.

I hope it will help you.
