UE5.6 Crash on import

Hi, I’ve been importing characters fine into UE5.6 and have used both Live link and simply dragging in the character into UE5 with no problem but now all I get is the following crash:

Assertion failed: (Index >= 0) & (Index < ArrayNum) [File:D:\build++UE5\Sync\Engine\Source\Runtime\Core\Public\Containers\Array.h] [Line: 1067] Array index out of bounds: 1 into an array of size 1.

I follow the correct import settings. It doesn’t work with a plain character with or animation. I have deleted the UE5 cache and have looked at various forums with regards to the above error.

I even recreated my character and I still get the crash. Could someone please help me understand why this has only just now started to happen? Thanks

Hi theLight,

Regarding deleting the UE5 cache, could you please try deleting the caches listed above?

  • C:\Users{User Name}\AppData\Local\UnrealEngine\5.6\DerivedDataCache
  • C:\Users{User Name}\AppData\Local\UnrealEngine\Common\DerivedDataCache
  • C:\Program Files\Epic Games\UE_5.6\Engine\DerivedDataCache
    After removing them, try opening again or recreated the file to see if it helps.
