Hello everyone, I have a strange crash in 5.4. I have created in 5.1 a big map with world partition (around 1000km2) and when I try to convert my project into a 5.4 project, I have this crash message when it try to open the map, can you help me? Message: “Assertion failed: CellIndex < CellIndexMax [File:D:\build++UE5\Sync\Engine\Source\Runtime\Renderer\Private\SceneCulling\SceneCulling.h] [Line: 172]”
I have the same problem…I could not find any solution so far. Epic, can you please take a look at this? It seems to be a engine bug…
I have tried many things but nothing is working, I realy NEED to convert my project in 5.4 and I need to do it NOW because I have to release before the end of the month…
Here is my log file:

I have the same problem.
I think the bug is in the Landscape grass.
I tried creating a new project in UE 5.4.2.
I created a new map and a big new landscape.
I added a blank material, then I added a landscapeGrass node with a scalar 1 connected. The grass is a cube and density 1.
So far it works.
The crash occurs when I increase the “end cull distance” of the landscape grass type to something greater than 500000.
In my case Instanced foliage Grid Size is 50000, is that what you mean? Or do you speak about the culling distance into the foliage mode settings?
Steps to Reproduce:
1- Create a new UE 5.4.2 project
2- Create a new level. Add lights.
3- Create a new Landscape (scale it to 3000 in x and y, since it happens at large distances)
4- Create a new material and apply it to the landscape
5- Add a LandscapeGrassOutput node
6- Create a Landscape Grass, apply it to the node and place a scalar with value 1
7- Place a cube as Grass Mesh, with density = 1. Everything else at default values.
8- Check that it works.
9- Increase the “Start Culling Distance” value to the maximum.
10- Increase the “End Culling Distance” value to the maximum. (I didn’t test it to see what the minimum value is, but it’s higher than 500000)
11- If the crash hasn’t happened yet, move the camera at high speed through the level.
12- The Editor closes.
13- The Crash Reporter appears with the following
Assertion failed: CellIndex < CellIndexMax [File:D:\build++UE5\Sync\Engine\Source\Runtime\Renderer\Private\SceneCulling\SceneCulling.h] [Line: 172]
Ok, so this is from the landscape material, the grass setting, I didn’t have the idea to look in it.
Thank you very much, I will try to do it tonight.
I have tried to change those settings but it’s still crashing.
Did you managed to make it work with this solution?
Not yet. If they answer me, I will tell you.
I have the same problem, has anyone been able to fix it?
Same problem here with 5.4.2. Also on a very large map and it may also be foliage related in our project. As this seems to affect projects with large worlds, I’m scared that not that many devs may be affected by this and therefore it’s not going to be a priority fix for Epic. Is there any way to escalate this? Or is all we can do “sit and wait”?
EDIT: Environment was running fine on 5.3
same problem guys( and i don’t have grass, just smal start map
I definitly think it’s an engine bug, I have spend ten’s of hours to try to solve it but I still can’t use 5.4…
Please HELP!!!
Did you report the bug? Is there a place where we can upvote the importance of it?
Our latest tests show that it’s probably not foliage related, but simply happens when you have “too much” loaded into the editor at the same time. What “too much” means, seems to be dependent on the individual’s machine. The bug makes it pretty much impossible to work on big open worlds at the moment, so it actually IS a high priority thing that should be fixed ASAP.
It’s possible that it’s related with this, my map is very big and with many actors in it.
I didn’t report it, I don’t know how to do it. If you know where, can you tell me please?
I reported the bug right now. I’ll post again when it has a valid ticked id.
Thank you very much, It’s a very important point, I have developped a huge world in 5.1 and I need to convert in 5.4 urgently.
Hello, do you have any news from epic?
No. I have a case number for my report, but I never received a ticket number (or a link) for the bug. No idea what that even means. I can only hope that the bug was already reported. It’s kinda sad to not even get a notification or some sort of reply.
