Description

A crash occurs when attempting to save a level after building static lighting for a large landscape.

I was originally investigating a memory leak issue with landscapes, and the user provided the parameters of the landscape which are what ended up causing the crash.

Note This crash does not occur if you attempt to save the level and leave the scene's lighitng unbuilt. It seems like the lightmaps and shadowmaps could be what are causing the editor to crash since they more than likely consuming a large amount of memory.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Create a new blank project without Starter Content.
2. Create a new landscape actor with the below specifications

  • Section Size: 255x255
  • Sections Per Component: 2x2
  • Number Of Components: 16x16
  • Overall Resolution: 8161x8161
  • Total Components: 256

3. Place Lightmass Importance Volume around landscape.
4. Select 'Build All'
5. Once building is completed, select the 'Save All' option and enter a map name if prompted.

Outcome Crash occurs during the process of saving.

Expected Crash does not occur and editor successfully saves the map.
