Unreal 5 crashes when adding texture to material,
Working on large project in UE5 for a trailer concept, Currently working in small Level and trying to alter materials, but when I add texture / parameter output into the material input, UE just crashes instantly.

this never happened earlier on the project, and my PC is AMD 5950x and RTX 3090.
is there a way of finding out how to find the issue?

This is the error that came up on the crash:
Fatal error: [File:D:/build/++UE5/Sync/Engine/Source/Runtime/Engine/Private/Materials/MaterialShared.cpp] [Line: 1794] Leaked 1 refs

Thanks in advanced :slight_smile:

Hi. Have the same problem. Do you have any solver for now?

Same issue here. Added a texture to an empty material to only have Unreal Engine crash instantly. Absolutely ridiculous!
