We have a similar issue since upgrading to 5.6.

I attached a repro crafted by our technical artist.

I believe wrt the other ticket that this may be fixed in 5.7, but we can’t upgrade for now. Could you point me to the commits or CLs I would need to backport the fix please ? Hopefully it is possible without too much conflicts.

Hi Antoine,

The changes are around the PCGAssetExporterUtils.cpp file - I think you’ll need just d4d190ce16c5feb65f20b5ad0d083c26e7e75478 to solve your issue.

Let me know if that doesn’t work.

Cheers,

Julien
