Editor Crashes While Switching to Foliage Mode

Hi, I have a problem with the foliage modes. When I try to switch to the vegetation modes(shift+4), editor is crashing. I do not know why and when I caused this error but it allwayse happens when I try to open my level. I submit this crash but I’m not going to wait for the next update to fixed (or not) this problem. For this reason, I have a question whether it is possible restart foliage tool or any idea how to fix that crash?

Fatal error!

Hi Necner,

We apologize in advance for the inconvenience and thank you for posting your log. In addition to this, would you mind posting your dxdiag so that we can take a look at your system specs and hardware to help identify the issue?

Thanks!

-W

these are my parameters of dxdiag.

Is this the only log information available in the ProjectName\Saved\Logs folder? It looks to only be the log for the Crash Reporter, but if you were using the editor long enough to try and switch to foliage mode, there should be other logging information from earlier than this when the game crashed and then subsequently launched the crash reporter.

no, I took log from Engine\Programs\CrashReportClient\Saved…
I made new crash and this is new log from Projects\save\logs

In that log, I don’t see a crash.

There’s a ton of warnings about the static mesh not being set for foliage:

[2014.04.11-23.48.19:786][  0]LogStaticMesh:Warning: Unabled to create a body instance for InstancedStaticMeshComponent_11 in Actor BP_Random_Foliage_4. No StaticMesh set.

And then it appears to be shutting down the editor normally, as if File > Exit was pushed.

[2014.04.11-23.48.27:499][ 87]Cmd: QUIT_EDITOR
[2014.04.11-23.48.27:565][ 87]LogExit: Preparing to exit.
[2014.04.11-23.48.28:173][ 87]LogExit: Editor shut down

Is the log from the same project in which you’re getting the crash? For example, if you get a crash when running the Content Examples project, then the log would be in the most recently modified text file in this location:

C:\Users\*username*\Documents\Unreal Projects\ContentExamples\Saved\Logs\

If you run the editor again, it’s going to write a new log there, so you want to make sure you retrieve the most recently modified file right after you get the crash, without running the editor again after the crash.

Thanks!
