I cannot wrap my head around this. If I make a brand new mobile project with ES2 preview, spawn emitters are just fine. No crashing. Things look great.
But my current project crashes at the sight of a particle. This includings spawning in a particle from a blueprint or just slappin’ one down in the level. It will crash.
Here’s the crash log:
Assertion failed: [File:D:\Build\++UE4\Sync\Engine\Source\Runtime\Engine\Private\Materials\MaterialShared.cpp] [Line: 1919] Fatal Error Material not found

I’m well aware that this file location doesn’t exists at all [File:\Build++UE4\Sync\Engine\Source\Runtime\Engine\Private\Materials\MaterialShared.cpp]. Any ideas on how to fix this? Any ideas WHY this pointing to a random odd location which doesn’t exist?
edit:
I’ve moved my project over to my Mac machine. The project still crashes when using ES2 preview, where as a brand new project with particles works fine.
Mac machines crash log:

another edit:
I’ve found the problem, but no fix. The problem arises when the particle system is spawning a mesh. So mesh in particle = crash. I have no idea WHY.
