Short description of error
Blender crushes when I switch from the Solid Mode to the Material Preview mode. Textures will get a white color for a short moment than blender will crush.
It working fine on 3.3.2.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
Open the file "05_my_crimson_ronin44.blend" then push button "Material Preview" and wait for crush.
The .blend file and crash report are attached.

Your project without textures. Download the attached texture file.
Changed status from 'Needs User Info' to: 'Needs Triage'
Added a blender file with textures packed inside.
Can't confirm crash
Strange... just checked again - blender is crushing. Tried cycles - it's ok, but when switching to evee it crushes.
I have a suspicion that the video card memory is not enough memory.
Check the console, there may be warnings about this

I reset blender to factory defaults and ... it worked somehow!!
It seems, something was off with my blender settings...
Tried to reproduce the problem and copied userpref.blend form the previos version - and it crushed again.
Something is wrong with my settings....

I think it's the same bug I reported: https://developer.blender.org/T103075
I think I found the reason, at least in my case: it's enabling in Preferences>Viewport>Textures "Limit Size" to any option other than Off. And actually now that I disabled it, not only Blender doesn't crash, but compiles shaders much quicker than in 3.3 (don't know if this is a bug or it's normal that limiting textures size actually slows down the process). Updating my report.

If the problem is in the settings, then I will close it.
If you find the problem again, but already at the factory settings, you can open this report again
Yes!!! In my case, blender crushes when i set limit less than 4096.
It seems, the problem is not in my settings, but in a limit texture size function!
Ilia, could you check the texture limit size please?
The problem is not with the feature, but with the fact that it is enabled.
Try turning it off.

Yes, turning that feature off does solve crush. Nontheless, this feature doesn't perform its function because of this bug.
It is a very useful feature that helps save memory!
It should be fixed...
Changed status from 'Archived' to: 'Needs Developer To Reproduce'
'm not sure if it had to be like this
So is it by design that the blender will crash when the texture is limited?
For sure the fact that enabling an option in the Preferences causes a crash can't be considered a design choice, and it can't be solved by just turning the option off and not using the feature...
Considering the ease with which the crash happens, this should be a high priority bug.
