Worked completely fine in 4.26, EA1, EA2, several Github builds, PV1… but is broken in PV2.

Tried some other projects, they too crash, but with different error messages.

All of these were working fine in PV1 and before.

EDIT: Oh yeah, playing in editor as standalone still works, this only appears after packaging.

Same issue here!

Fixed it by creating a copy of the project… still, a weird issue, given that I didnt even touch anything.

5

Do you mean you just duplicated it from the Epic Launcher or some other way? I am having the same problem.

6

Yeah, as far as I remember.

But I am not 100% sure anymore.

Run the setup.bat file, this will download the binary dependencies, which includes the ICU data and more.

Where is this located?
