    I'm getting error in editor "Getgfxdevice() should only be called from main thread". It occurs randomly (every 1-5 minutes) in my project. Exported game crashes after random time (usually after 10 - 60 seconds).

    This bug has beed reported there: https://issuetracker.unity3d.com/is...rors-and-eventually-crashes-when-in-play-mode

    Bug report status is: "Fixed in future release", but what release do you mean exactly? In 2019.1 bug still occurs so do you mean 2019.1.1?

    People are asking this in report comments but nobody answered them.

    Does anyone know when this regressed? I'm getting crashes even in 2017.4.20f2.

    Possibly related: the MT renderer is enabled.
