Virtual Shadow Map visualization modes black

I have Virtual Shadow Maps enabled in my project running a custom build based on 5.3. When I switch to any of the VSM visualization modes they appear fully black. When colleagues running the same project try, their buffer views appear as expected. I’ve tested in an empty project on the same machine and it works fine. I’ve tried checking for any local .ini edits but no dice. Any thoughts?

Did you manage to find an answer to this? Have the same issue.

I am also experiencing the same problem. In my case, the graphics card is RTX 4060 TI.
Did you solve this problem?
My colleague is also on the same project, but unlike me, there is no black screen.

thanks for this post. same happened to me, all virtual shadow visualizers shows black screen only on my PC, but never considered that.

easy SOLUTION was to reset showflags back to default.
you can do this on the “show” button on top of the viewport, right beside the viewmodes for LIT, unlit, etc.
first option “UseDefaults” will revert all showflags to default.
and the visualizers are back
