Crash when creating a new Blueprint pawn from C++ pawn.

Lehm · April 14, 2015, 1:49pm

I’m just getting started with UE4. I’ve created a C++ pawn based off the tutorial at Components and Collision | Unreal Engine Documentation.

I wanted to be able to easily create new versions with different properties. I figured it was best to do this with blueprints. So I created a blueprint class with the C++ pawn as the parent. If I place this pawn in the world and hit play the editor crashes. The message is Root Component not initialized delete me 0. What does this mean?

Unknown exception - code 00000001 (first/second chance not available)

Fatal error: [File:D:\BuildFarm\buildmachine_++depot+UE4-Releases+4.7\Engine\Source\Runtime\Engine\Private\PrimitiveComponent.cpp] [Line: 1401]

Hmm. No one has any idea?

Hey -

To help track crash issues like this it would be more beneficial to create a post on the AnswerHub (answer.unrealengine.com). Make sure to include as much information as possible to help us track down what could be causing the crash. Information such as what engine version you’re using and whether you’re using source code from GitHub or the binary version from the launcher will help narrow down the search. Additionally, be sure to mention if you have the same crash occur in 4.7.6 on a new project with no additional content? Also be sure to include the link to the AnswerHub post here so that I can find it easily and make sure it is assigned to a member of our Support Staff.

Cheers
