When attempting to open IK Retargeter, UEFN will crash to desktop. This occurs predominantly with existing IK Rig assets, but has also occurred inconsistently with newly created ones.

What Type of Bug are you experiencing?
Stability
Steps to Reproduce
When double clicking on an IK Retargeting Rig, UEFN will crash. This occurs in several different projects and when the Retargeter contains any number of different meshes. This also occurs, although less consistently, when you create a new IK Retarget from scratch.
Expected Result
When attempting to open the viewport for a Retargeter, you should not have UEFN crash.
Observed Result
When attempting to double click the asset inside the Content Browser, UEFN crashes.
This is happening to me too. At first it crashed when I simply created the retargeter, but after multiple attempts at reopening the project I can get the retargeter to create and even add the skeletal meshes to it, but it crashes constantly and is unusable.
It’s super unstable and already made one of my projects essentially corrupted b/c it crashes as soon as the level loads in after adding the retargeter.
Same issue. Nothing to do with migrated from UE5. We’ve been working on retargetting for a NPC for weeks in a project and now we cannot open the Rig or retarget without the editor crashing. This is since the recent update. This is an editor bug!
Hi @thejerenator
You can pick the current log as broken as one text, or better still use Windows compression, or use WinRAR and select zip of logs directory or leave it as ,Rar and drag fro Windows file explorer to zip/rar to the post.
If you need confidentiality, then send by PM to @Flak .
If you send the logs in an open post, more devs can look into the crash.
Maybe related - the model in the retargeter has 113 bones - is it possible I’m exceeding a bone count limit for UEFN?
EDIT: I tried removing bones, reskinning the model to have 74 bones, deleted the previous 113 bone version from the project, recreated the IK Rig for it, and the retarget works to set up, but closing and reopening the retargeter also crashes so seems like not the root of the issue.

The Crash error starts here, this is difficult because protected parts of UEFN do NOT have the symbols table links available, but as highlighted above the problem is a crash in
