Important Bug Patch!
One of my customers has found a problem where the game can break with a black screen.
To avoid any of you shipping a game that can be unusable for some players, I had to disable “View Distance Scale” in patch.
Update 1.5.1 has been submitted to marketplace team, but it will take a few days until it’s live.
I don’t have the details, since I can’t reproduce the error on my end. It is a real troublesome bug since if it triggers, the problem can’t be solved by modifying blueprints, but requires editor to restart.
I am unable to submit a bug to epic without further testing it out (and I can’t trigger it on my end), but it is related to console command r.ViewDistanceScale (and maybe in combination with with other console commands).
It might be some AMD cards, but I can’t say for sure.
If you already have already implemented release 1.5, you can read manual step 8.15 on how to disable your View Distance so your players wont hit this issue.
I hope I can re-enable it when I release the next update of my menu.
Sorry for the trouble this causes.
