Hello, Everyone!

Issue: Unreal 5.7 Preview and 5.6.1 both crash while creating a Metahuman when downloading/applying textures.

Basic workflow:
Create character
Adjust parameters
Add parametric clothing
Create Rig
Download/Apply textures (Crash within 3 seconds of texture application)

System Basics:
AMD Ryzen 7 5800X
NVidia 5070 Ti 12gb VRAM
64gb 3600 DDR4 RAM
Windows 11 25H2

Error:
Fatal error: [File:D:\build\++UE5\Sync\Engine\Source\Runtime\D3D12RHI\Private\D3D12Util.cpp] [Line: 1030]

What have I tried:
DirectX12 SM6
DirectX11 SM5
Vulcan
No firewall
No Anti virus
Paging file 2x installed RAM: 128gb
NVidia Game Mode driver
NVidia Studio Driver
Allowing Unreal Editor as much system access as I can

Has anyone else had this issue and if so, did you resolve it? If you were able to resolve it, what was your solution?

Well, I guess I’m just stupid. I know that 80070005 is an access violation of some sort, but I’m thinking in terms of system or administrative access. I think about it some more and then I realize that Unreal can’t access something that doesn’t exist, which includes disk space. The drive I had set up years ago when I first installed Unreal Engine had filled up to the point that there wasn’t enough temporary disk space available to complete the download and application of the Metahuman textures. All I needed to do was change the Derived Data Cache location in the Editor settings to a location with enough disk space. :zany_face:
