Persona crash in animgraph and eventgraph

My Unreal Engine keeps on crashing after 5 to 10 mins while in the persona window. Sometimes it even corrupts my skeleton mesh and have to replace animation or if lucky just the skeleton mesh. I have paste my error log here. I was just wondering what is the cause of this problem since I couldn’t figure it out or if its a common cause. I’m using 4.8.

Hi ,

This crash has been reported by other users as well and has been recorded as: JIRA [UE-16822]. However, we are having difficulty reproducing this in house.

Can you either provide detailed steps to reproduce or provide your project files via dropbox? Any further information you can provide will help us get this worked out as soon as possible.

Thanks!

The only time this happens is whenever I reopen the Animgraph. If I’m on the event graph screen all the nodes won’t appear and you can only see wires and that’s when it freezes. So basically when on another screen and opening up a new window or current persona window it happens. It doesn’t happen while in the persona screen.

I’m running into the exact same problem, however it also happens a lot when the actions list appears (both by right clicking or dragging wires)

This may be hardware related and, after cross-referencing some crash reports, I’ve generated a bug report specifically for your issue: [UE-19540]. Please submit a dxdiag so we can relate to other hardware that users are reporting to have the same issue. Thanks for your help in isolating this bug.

The previous JIRA [UE-16822] corresponds with the callstack you have posted here and has been reported fixed for the official 4.9 release. The seconde JIRA [UE-19540] was generated from our Crash Reporter files where multiple crashes from your machine yielded the same callstack. That issue is still being worked on.
