Description

ALLOW_DITHERED_LOD_FOR_INSTANCED_STATIC_MESHES works without crashing in ue4.27.
It appears that this code path is not maintained in ue5.

 

Steps to Reproduce
  1. Set ALLOW_DITHERED_LOD_FOR_INSTANCED_STATIC_MESHES macro to 0 in MaterialShared.h
  2. Compile Editor
  3. Launch the editor and create a project
  4. Create new blueprint
  5. Add an InstancedMeshComponent in component panel
  6. Select the component
  7. Set some kind of mesh to the StaticMesh property in Details panel
  8. Press "+" button on Instances property

Result : 

Editor crushes with message : 

Fatal error: [File:D:\dev\UnrealEngine-5.0.3\Engine\Source\Runtime\D3D12RHI\Private\D3D12VertexDeclaration.cpp] [Line: 55] 
Unknown RHI vertex element type 0
