Editor crash when opening 5.0 project in 5.1

Hey there @UnderClever! It’s acting as though your current platform is invalid for the selected RHI. Open the project files → Config → DefaultEngine.ini

[/Script/WindowsTargetPlatform.WindowsTargetSettings]
DefaultGraphicsRHI=DefaultGraphicsRHI_DX12
-D3D12TargetedShaderFormats=PCD3D_SM5
+D3D12TargetedShaderFormats=PCD3D_SM5
+D3D12TargetedShaderFormats=PCD3D_SM6
-D3D11TargetedShaderFormats=PCD3D_SM5
+D3D11TargetedShaderFormats=PCD3D_SM5

Change the default graphics down to DX11

DefaultGraphicsRHI=DefaultGraphicsRHI_DX11

and see if the project launches. If so, then we’ll dig through your shader model as well to see.

What are your computer’s specs?
