Metahuman crashes Unreal Engine in VR Preview for Quest 3

Ok, it looks like it's the problem with meta human's hair (Groom).
When I cloned metahuman blueprint and removed all hair related components it nows works.
I've also tried this https://twitter.com/iBrews/status/1427481910218043400 
(I've checked "Always use Hair Cards" in Lod configuration in Metahuman Creator but I'm not sure it works because on another edit it was unchecked) and it didn't help.

When debugging it crashes on engine check.
UE_5.3\Engine\Source\Runtime\D3D12RHI\Private\D3D12Texture.cpp

from digging through callstack  i found that the render pass that has the problem is related to hair textures
Texture->Name = 0x00007ff8f0664ea0 L"Hair.HairOnlyDepthTexture"

Variables from callstack:

PassState->

Same Issue 

UE5.3.2 & UE5.2    Meta XR plugin 57~63     Metahuman Hair (Groom, Strands)   

VR Preview Mode  & Preview Platform  PC  D3D(11,12) SM6(5)

Source code : TexCreate_RenderTargetable   not  included int TextureDesc.Flags 

check(!EnumHasAnyFlags(TextureDesc.Flags, TexCreate_RenderTargetable | TexCreate_ResolveTargetable))

My temp Solution(Metahuman looks very ugly but no crash):

Preview Platform  Android Vulkan Mobile + "Android Icon" Must be checked!(Green, it's beside the "Preview Button when you changed Platform Preview to Android Vulkan Mobile")

Some Hair maybe lost and Metahuman creator online, when you choose always use hair card

If you're using Cesium Plugin for Unreal,  the "Cesium Sky Component" may cause VR Preview crash too!!

Use UE VR template sample project  "sky"

Meta XR 63 Version:   Disable  openXR  plugin and all it's related eye, hand plugins， offical site saied they are not compatable

F*king  crashing problem tortured me for many days! F*k it!

I had this issue too and just managed to solve it. I had the MetaHumans folder placed within a subfolder, and not inside the /Content directory. After moving all MetaHuman assets back to the default directory, it started working again. Something about the referencing must be absolute. 

I know this is an old thread, but we've encountered the same issue recently and spent some time digging into what's causing it.

The crash is due to the HairOnlyTexture having the flag `TexCreate_ResolveTargetable` when used in VR Preview.

The line where the HairOnlyDepthTexture is created is here: https://github.com/EpicGames/UnrealEngine/blob/release/Engine/Source/Runtime/Renderer/Private/HairStrands/HairStrandsVisibility.cpp#L4662

It is using the SceneDepth as the base for creation. For some reason, the SceneDepth texture has the 'TexCreate_ResolveTargetable' tag when using VR Preview, but not when using Standalone game mode, and therefore does not crash.

My workaround is to create a blank texture, using the same flags but explicitly removing the 'TexCreate_ResolveTargetable' flag. I am unsure if this will have any undesirable consequences.

//FRDGTextureRef HairOnlyDepthTexture = GraphBuilder.CreateTexture(SceneDepthTexture->Desc, TEXT("Hair.HairOnlyDepthTexture"));
FRDGTextureRef HairOnlyDepthTexture = GraphBuilder.CreateTexture(FRDGTextureDesc::Create2D(Resolution, EPixelFormat::PF_DepthStencil, FClearValueBinding::None, SceneDepthTexture->Desc.Flags & ~TexCreate_ResolveTargetable), TEXT("Hair.HairOnlyDepthTexture"));

This at-least prevents the crash and allows me to continue working with VR Preview when using Grooms.
