I have the same issue with 5.4 and have not found a workaround other than launching with DirectX 11 (-dx11). When I was running 5.4 Preview it worked fine with my demo projects but with the 5.4.0 release (and I re-tested with 5.4.1) I got the same error every time. I can do a new project as BP or CPP, existing projects from 5.3 or 5.4 preview, and they all crash. The only way around it that I have found is to launch the editor with -dx11.
Windows 11 21H2
i10900k
Asus Maximus XII Formula
Asus Strix RTX-3090
Nvidia drivers 552.22 (I tried a few past releases too which didn’t help).
I tried verifying/repairing the 5.4 install and I also completely removed and re-installed it, but nothing seems to work.
Does anyone else have any tips or suggestions on figuring out a solution to this?
