Doing anything with materials for my own projects crashes editor

I’ve compiled engine from source on OSX, and for a while everything worked fine. However, I suddenly can’t do anything with materials in any of my projects. I can see material assets loaded in sidebar, but if I click on them, editor freezes and I have to force quit. same thing happens when I try to assign a material to a mesh.

I’ve tried rebuilding my projects, rebuilding engine, completely deleting engine and my projects and starting from scratch, but nothing seems to work. When I download and open sample projects, materials work perfectly fine.

Any ideas?

Are you sure editor is crashing? Maybe it’s compressing textures, compiling shaders etc and for some reason on your Mac it’s taking too much of CPU resources and it stops responding to input. Could you please give it some time and see if it’ll actually crash (then you could send us a crash log) or return to normal after a while? There’s a good change that if you’d enable Output Log tab in editor it’d tell you more about what’s going on. Also, what Mac does this happen on? Thanks!
