Cmd: MAP CHECK NOTIFYRESULTS
MapCheck: New page: Battleground - 9 May 2020, 19:10:44
MapCheck: Error: WorldSettings_1 Maps need lighting rebuilt 
MapCheck: Map check complete: 1 Error(s), 0 Warning(s), took 0,408ms to complete.

There is no level called WorldSettings_1. Lightmass volume added to the scene.

UE 4.25.0.

Grateful for any help.

The Message Log gives absolutely no information either:

… and that’s a completely useless error message, if you ask me.

I just got it working, though I have no idea how. After creating a Levels subfolder, moving the single level there and fixing the folder redirections, I then could build.

Googling this issue shows that many have this exact problem, down to the exact name of the “World_Settings_1” file, which moreover is nonexistent in the project.

Might be good to sort this out for your course.

That is a normal error and is talked about near the start of the course, it should disappear once the build finishes. Also to increase your chance of getting an answer PLEASE use the correct category.
This is a question about the Unreal Engine course, not talking about the Unity Course.
