Unhandled Exception: EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION

Hey,

Since the new update I´m having issues cooking my map. Each time this Fatal Error occurs. It doesnt close UE4 it just stops the cooking process.

I´ve also had my machine reset due to Harddrive issues before. I saved my project folder, downloaded ADK through the Epic Launcher and started working on my map again. I am absolutely clueless on what/why this happens…

Fatal error!

Also Attached the LogFile of said Cook

No one realy care about our errors, i get the same bloody error. guess we are not gonna make any kind of mods

I am also having this same exact error at the same point of where @Yummy456 log file ends. I have also included the log file in which the error occurs. Any help would be appreciated.

After some looking into I found in the ark modding discord under the #announcements section @anonymous_user_5a19f9cc posted a workaround. It has worked for me and I do not get that crash after testing the cooking process multiple times. I will post his information that was posted in the discord and hope it helps some with this issue.

@everyone If you are encountering a crash while cooking with the latest dev kit try the following steps:

  1. Open the level Maps/TheIslandSubMaps/TheIsland
  2. Wait for any compiling to finish
  3. Click the play button and again wait for the compiling to finish.
  4. Exit play mode and attempt to cook."

All credit goes to @anonymous_user_5a19f9cc for this.

you are amazing!!! worked for me, thank you so much!

This sure did not help me out with the same issue.
