FSoftObjectPath::FixupCoreRedirects

function CoreUObject Since unknown

#include "UObject/SoftObjectPath.h"

Access: public

Description

Applies core redirects (from DefaultEngine.ini [CoreRedirects]) to this path, updating it to the current canonical asset path if the asset has been moved or renamed.

Caveats & Gotchas

• Returns true only if the path was actually changed by a redirect. A false return does not mean the path is valid — it may still point to a non-existent asset.
• PostLoadPath already calls this during normal deserialization. Call FixupCoreRedirects explicitly only when you construct or modify a path at runtime and need redirect resolution outside of the normal load path.

Manually redirect a runtime-constructed path C++

FSoftObjectPath Path(TEXT("/Game/OldFolder/MyAsset.MyAsset"));

{
    UE_LOG(LogTemp, Log, TEXT("Redirected to: %s"), *Path.ToString());
}
