Hi, I have just applied for a Support a Creator code and I got rejected due to not having 1000 followers. Could anyone help process my application?
You should have gotten pushed through, as long as you met all of the other requirements.
Things should be getting back to normal. There may be a little queue to go through.
We are aware that some creators are unable to start a session in UEFN.
Creators may also be receiving cooking errors when trying to push changes to UEFN islands, and players trying to join UEFN islands may receive matchmaking errors.
We are looking into these issues and will provide an update when we have more information or a fix.
Yes, we're making sure all is ok. :)
We've been monitoring and this issue appears to be resolved. We'll keep an eye on things and let you know if there are any updates.
Thank you for your patience while we worked things out!
Hey folks, we're checking into this.
Creators are now able to adjust how matchmaking queues behave on their islands in public matches. Check out the release notes for more details and a link to documentation.
Negan is now available as a Character in the NPC Spawner. Also in The Walking Dead Universe, the Shiva Shotgun now has a flashlight. Watch out for those dark corners!
The update also brings us weapons from Fortnite Battle Royale. The Guided Missile, Dragon’s Breath Shotgun, and Zapotron all make an appearance!
Additionally, you’ll find updates to the Item Spawner, Reboot Van and Rift Point Volume devices.
