Invisible unions

[TrustTertarix (typeRawr)]

Hi, i was going to release pre-version of my new showcase today but most of my unions on place are invisible.

It looks the same in game, what can i do to make them visible again?

I’ve had this problem before, and for all I know, I’m pretty sure it’s only you who doesn’t see the unions, if you reopen studio it should be fixed.

Occasionally it’s because they’re broken, but I’ve only had that happen to me once. Reload studio and it should be fine.

Still not fixed, i tried reopening it 5 times.

There have been many topics regarding this and this is the best solution I could find.

Try turning this setting on Reload Assets in the settings and then restart all instances of Roblox Studio:

DId you group the unions? If so, when grouping unions they can dissappear, I don’t know why but they just do. I suggest grouping all the normal parts first, and then drag the unions into the group.

There are a lot of topics talking about how to fix these and reporting them in #platform-feedback:studio-bugs these are called corrupt unions. I’ve linked how someone fixed them below.

How to fix corrupted unions?

This is a persistent bug which relates to the fact that unions are stored online. If there was an issue with your internet connection while creating the union, this could have resulted in its corruption. From personal experience, there is no visible solution to this problem. Auto saves were completely unhelpful for me as well.

How to recover invisible / corrupt unions

You need to follow the instructions under section 2. The file you create in this step is for implanting SolidModel IDs into so you can test them in Studio to try and find your lost union. You shouldn’t be opening the corrupted union; it’s gone and you need to find the last good version of it (a SolidModel asset) uploaded to your account. That’s what this tutorial helps you do.
