Mostly related to UE-63843.
No Steam audio etc, only “AudioDeviceModuleName=AudioMixerXAudio2”
For some reason this happens on a build we run on a win 2016 server, while building locally from source works for my computer …
EDIT: I also posted this into a forum topic I made:
It seems that the reason I get the crashes is the VS version.
The system that compiled a working build used the Visual Studio 2017 14.13.26128 toolchain since I never updated after I installed it, while the other machines had a recent toolchain (Visual Studio 2017 14.15.26726).
(4.20.3 was also tested on one of the “broken” machines, but the fixes did not affect my problem)
Using the old audio engine seems to work.
Editor, standalone from the editor works.
The game just crashes on start and (sometimes) that gets printed to the log:
