Description

Users on the forums are hitting a crash on their initial launch of the engine into dx12. There is currently a workaround to load into the project with dx11 first, compile shaders, then youre fine to load into dx12. Very similar to an issue reported earlier [Link Removed].

Link to forum

Steps to Reproduce
  1. Create new BP project
  2. Add a rect light to the scene and save the level
  3. Enable Ray Tracing in the project settings
  4. Close the project
  5. Open the project with -dx12

Result: Editor crashes on start
Frequency: 3/3
