Fixes:

Fixed changing river width/velocity/audio intensity from the Details panel not applying changes.
Improved robustness of the triangulation method used by the water system.

Materials

New:

Added a safety code that prevents Material Functions from saving expression collections with nulls in them, causing continuous material invalidations on PostLoad().
The material translation DDC now gets skipped when a material is not flagged as Persistent.
Added more debug information if null expressions are detected on PostLoad(), displaying the name and type of the missing expression (this requires the function to have been saved with this change before).
Added a message box on a MaterialFunction save that informs the user if their function is corrupted and needs to be checked or resaved. GUID invalidation when null expressions are detected on MaterialFunction::PostLoad() is now deterministic to prevent bloating the DDC with new shadermaps.

Fixes:

Fixed a crash by removing debugging data used to print missing expressions on material function post-load.
Added a null check to FHLSLMaterialTranslator::GetMaterialEnvironment() to avoid crashing when a referenced Parameter Collection fails to load (such as when it no longer exists).

Fixed an issue where modeling tools would, in a rare case, fail to move a selected edge or vertex.
Geometry Tools: Fixed the undo function within the tool.
Fixed an issue that required some tools (edit pivot, bake transform) to create two undo items instead of one in some cases.
Fixed a crash that could occur in the static mesh editor when interacting with sockets if the socket window was never opened.
Fixed an ensure in PolyEdit on edge loop selection.
Fixed a rare crash when smoothing a mesh that had inconsistent triangle orientations.
Fixed an ensure that could occur in the hole fill tool when processing a mesh with a complicated border.
Fixed a crash caused by running the Convert tool on read-only cooked assets.

Immersive Camera Mode Known Issue

We're aware of an issue where players cannot place objects or open the Quick Menu when Immersive Camera mode is enabled on the Editor Camera. We are working on a fix, but in the meantime, you can use this workaround to disable Immersive Camera mode from the Main Creative Menu:

Open the Main Creative Menu.
Navigate to the Quick Menu Tab.
Set the Editor Camera setting to External.

NPC Spawner Device Known Issue

We're aware of an issue with the NPC Spawner failing to spawn an NPC when using the default NPC character definition. We are working on a fix, but in the meantime, you can use this workaround:

Select the affected NPC Spawner device.
Click the NPC Character Definition option.
In the pop-up window, choose Creative New Asset > NPC Character Definition.
Configure the definition data with Character Type and associated Modifiers (see this documentation for details). The NPC Spawner device should now work properly and spawn the NPCs.

Unreal Revision Control

New:

Added an in-editor interface in the Outliner context menu to enable project admins to unlock assets locked by a collaborator to allow others to work on it.

Verse

Fixes:

Fixed an issue where if the snapshot project was created with different code in external packages, and if a user UEFN project contained invalid Verse code during compilation that during rollback to the old snapshot project, the linker would fail to find symbols and release/obliterate generated types for an external package that was in cooked content, thus invalidating the rest of the editor session until a restart.
Fixed issue where UEFN became unresponsive after removing or adding a file in VerseExplorer

Language

Fixes:

Fixed a bug that caused classes that indirectly inherited from a <unique> interface to be considered incomparable.
Fixed the rollback for the equals operators +=, -=. /=, and *= . Previously, there was a difference in how a+= b and a = a+b respectively behaved during rollback for array, string, and float operations for each of these operators. That difference has now been fixed, and the code will restore during rollback in all cases. Code that depends on this behavior must be changed. There is, unfortunately, no generic way to do so.
