Developer Notes

Duplicates UE-6231

Description

There's a crash in FCharacterList::GetKerning() when using the editor in Japanese that is apparently fixed in one of these three changelists:

CL# 2370014, 2370050, and 2370040

But they were not merged to 4.6 apparently.

The crash most annoyingly occurs when trying to create a copy of your existing 4.5 or earlier project, or when trying to create a new project from a template such as Third Person while including starter content.

Steps to Reproduce

Convert Project Crash

  1. Open UE 4.5 editor and set language to Japanese and restart editor
  2. Create a new project from the Third Person template
  3. Include starter content
  4. Close UE 4.5
  5. Open UE 4.6 editor and set language to Japanese and restart
  6. Select the project you just created to open in 4.6
  7. When asked how to convert, choose "Create a copy"
  8. Observe crash

New project crash

  1. Open UE 4.6 and set language to Japanese and restart
  2. Create a new project from the Third Person template
  3. Include starter content
  4. Observe crash after hitting "create"
