Hi everyone. UE4 crashes when I take a screenshot using “highresshot “x””. I’ve tried different multipliers and everything. Here is the log.

Hey Beefaroni - I want to check for my reproduction, are you PIE or using Standalone Game? and I know you said you used multiple different X values, but can you give me a range does it crash with a x=2 or does it start at a particular integer like everything high than x=6 causes crashs? Thank You - Eric Ketchum ---

Hi - Can you still take high res screenshots from the Editor’s Drop-down tabs in the Editor’s viewport or does this also cause a crash? Thank You Eric Ketchum ---

I can; however, the lighting and shadows don’t work properly. Some lighting doesn’t load and some shadows artifact. Right now, I am relying on matinee movies to take a screenshot. ---

Yep. If it helps, this problem only began in 4.5. 4.3 and 4.4 were fine. link text ---

Hey beefaroni - We’ve been trying to reproduce this crash and have thus far been unsuccessful. I wanted to check in and see if after the 4.5.1 Hotfix does the crash still occur. Thank You Eric Ketchum ---

Yes, it still occurs. I have started a new scene now. I will update. ---

Looks like it’s fixed on my end. I recently reformatted and re-installed unreal engine so unfortunately I can’t tell you exactly what was wrong 😕
