"terminate called after throwing an instance of `std::bad_alloc`"

On an Arch Linux with KDE on X11, running latest Wicked Editor release v0.71.563, when I attempt to Open from the master repo dir Content/terrain/grass.wiscene, it crashes: here's the full terminal print of that run.

Version incompat of master content vs. release binary perhaps? (All the other .wiscenes load up fine though.) Even if so, guess it's a bug to crash instead of catch+report =)

[turanszkij]

You can't use the latest release with content from a later version. In the latest release this file did not exist: Content/terrain/grass.wiscene That's why I think you are trying to open a newer asset with an earlier exe. Though it would pop a message box for this on Windows, but maybe not on Linux, I don't know. Does it happen with the latest github version (non-release)? Version 0.71.570 is the latest today.

[metaleap]

Will switch to latest master later today and report back!

[metaleap]

So no more crash when the editor build is the same git version as the Content/terrain repo dir.

But opening the Content/terrain/grass.wiscene, while not crashing, won't show anything in the viewport either (only the blank background color), not sure if that's to be expected?

If so, feel free to close this ticket =)

This is normal, that model configures the parameters of grass, but it will be only visible when a mesh is specified for it to grow from. It is used by the terrain to set up its grass.
