Disabling LPV plugin crashes Editor after Restart

Development Pipeline & Plugins Plugins

I set up a blank project, tweaking project settings then went to plugins to disable what platform/project doesn’t require. After restarting Editor got this crash. So, can’t load project and now I have to create a new one.

For whatever reason I got 3 consecutive crashes (clicked Ok on first one, then got 2 more same Error pop up messages).

That wasn’t an issue with 4.10.4

Hi motorsep,

I was unable to reproduce this crash. Can you provide more specific steps like these I used to try and reproduce the issue:

  1. In UE4.11 preview 7 create a new blank project without Starter Content
  2. Choose File>Package Project>Supported Platforms
  3. Deselect all platforms except “Windows” (*IMPORTANT: list all platforms you have selected)
  4. Save Project
  5. Close Project
  6. Close Launcher
  7. Restart Launcher
  8. Launch Test project
    RESULT: No crash
    EXPECTED: Editor to crash upon launch of test project.

-Thanks,

.

Addendum: After enabling the Light Propagation Volume per instructions on the following link, retried steps above:

https://docs.unrealengine.com/latest/INT/Engine/Rendering/LightingAndShadows/LightPropagationVolumes/index.html#enablinglightpropagationvolumes

Still unable to reproduce crash.

I did better - recorded a video :slight_smile:

So when I do all that, crash happens whether I have all platforms enabled or all disabled except Android (which is my target platform).

Sure thing, no problem!

I just want to confirm 4.11p8 has the same issue.

This has been fixed in UE4.12.5. Let me know if you are still experiencing from UE4.12.5 on. -Thanks!
