There was an issue in our last update (v28.10) that caused thumbnails to be incorrectly regenerated.
This issue has been fixed in today's update. (v28.20) Thank you for your patience while we worked through this!
Fortnite v28.20 introduces Verse Stand-Up, a new template for UEFN that demonstrates how to use the Character device to bring Fortnite NPCs to life in your games.
Showcased in the template are two new devices now available for Creative and UEFN, the Chair device and the Input Trigger device. The chair device enables you to put players into a seated position in order to focus their view on a specific area. You’ll have options for the type of chair used and other presets. You can even create a custom chair based on your own imported static mesh.

The Analytics device is designed to work with other devices, by registering when players trigger them. It can be tied to when a player steps on a trigger, enters a volume, eliminates an enemy, presses a button, and more.
Previously, the Accolades device could be used to gain insight into player behavior. The introduction of the Analytics device allows for similar functionality without any reliance on the Accolades device or calibration.
Data is recorded daily and can be viewed in the Creator Portal at https://create.fortnite.com/welcome.

Read moreWe’re aware of an issue that may cause players to crash when sprinting on Grind Rails in both Battle Royale and creator islands.
In the meantime, we’ve disabled Sprinting while Grinding to prevent these crashes while we investigate the issue. As a note to creators, this may significantly impact experiences that make use of Grind Rails.
