Freezing on "Building AAMP and BYML files..."

[ArchLeaders]

Hey, it's me again.

So I'm trying to rebuild a bunch of actors and I'm having it freeze on "Building AAMP and BYML files...".

If I try and close the window, it does throw an error. Now, I think due to the odd format of the error shown that it's thrown multiple times over time, but suppressed until I try and close the window.

The output:

Removing old build...

At this time the "build" folder contents are re-encoded files.

I tried running as admin, but it seems to just freeze. Pressing close the first time does nothing, the second terminating the console.

Update.

I left the cmd running in admin, and when I attempted to close the console it returned this error.

My estimated summary of a single instance of the error.

Update.

I sorted the actors I was building alphabetically to narrow down what was causing the issue. After some more tests, I concluded that it was the "Merged_Grudge" actors.

I'm still unsure why, but it's progress.

Since the error seems to involve the multiprocessing module, try running the command with the --single flag to see what, if any, error occurs when running on a single process.

Alright, will do. Thanks!

With the command

hyrule_builder build --single -b ".\HyRe_M"

It just aborted after Building AAMP and BYML files..., on verbose it aborted after Built content/Actor/ModelList/Mannequin_007_Lower.bmodellist.yml.

[NiceneNerd]

Is there anything suspect in that file? If it's aborting so mysteriously it's probably triggering a bug on the C++ side of oead, which is hard to imagine w/o something wonky in the file itself.
