Water Plugin crashes the Engine 5.4.1

Just wanted to say that this problem isn’t VR related only.

I tried connecting a specific spline point (check the image) of my River Body with my Lake FROM outside a WaterZone collision, and the moment it hit the box, the editor crashed.


Blue Arrow (first spline point): No Crash
Red Arrow (second and third spline point: Crash

100% Replication success in 5.4.4.

What makes matters worse is that the issue seems to be related to my project only, even though it’s not a VR project. Both ‘Instanced Stereo’ and ‘Forward Shading’ are off and have been off since the beginning of this project.

Workaround: I either remove the lake or just extend the WaterZone before adding the River Body (that means that the River must be created already inside the WaterZone collision box) and it’s fixed. Still need to figure out what’s caushing the crash.

P.S.: Tried with a First Person template and had no issues. Not entirely sure what’s causing that crash on my specific project.
