UE4 Fatal Error
Need Help When the error pops up it does not specify anything except “Fatal Error” After reading the crash logs I see this “Exception Violation”
This error seems to happen at various times doing anything in game as I have been testing it to try and pinpoint the issue but to no avail.

This is the last snippet of the crash log since I can not upload a log file or send a dropbox link

The news isn’t the only thing I take in too much of. I read the forums and actually remember some of it. But I have read a lot of reports by people having issues with Conan on the RTX 4070. This puts me off the 4070s for now.

Want to replace my antique 1060 with a 3060 12gig, was looking at 4070s because they aren’t that much more expensive, but naaaaa
