[Bug] Repeated crashes post-Hypatia update. Crash log shows FMallocBinned2 mem. errors

3 votes

After the Hypatia update, I get frequent random crashes. The game exits to desktop and displays the UE error report window.

Dev team:
These errors show failures of memory allocation class FMallocBinned2. The method Realloc() is a repeat offender. Errors like "attempt to allocate an unrecognized block" and "EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION reading address." ReallocExternal() in some crashes. The call stack says GameThread IsCrashed = true, all other threads in the stack false. If you know these words, you know the bug type. No room for URL to UE docs on it. Might try IsInternallyThreadSafe(), ThreadSafeProxy, etc. if you don't use them.

Oblig: Nothing else changed other than the Icarus software update. Nothing. Validation of game files in Steam show no problems. Also tried a clean install/another drive. No other games or programs have crashes. The details in the crash logs point to code and not game file "issues" but, hey, do the basics first.

CrashContext.runtime-xml files available.
