    Hello,

    I recently started receiving this error when trying to open a scene in my project.

    Everything was working fine, then I baked the lighting for a rather large scene. While flying around the scene view and checking out the lighting work, Unity crashed and threw this error. Previous attempts at baking lighting were successful and didn't seem to cause an issue. After opening the project back up, as soon as I tried to open a scene, this fatal error occurred again. I then tried deleting the library and temp folders as recommended in other posts about this error. Now when I try to open the project, Unity tries to reimport the entire project but crashes part way through and gives this same error. I have tried twice deleting these folders and reopening with the same issue occuring.

    I got zero help on this issue, so I had to start from a backup and went in a different direction to get around the bugs. Good luck...
