Hello,
I'm using Hard Surface shader and that's it. There were other packages in there but I've removed them all (in trying to isolate the problem).
I'm using a custom layout which is a variation of the tall layout. I'll try removing panels to see what happens.
The crash happens at different points, sometimes when I click the variables tab, sometimes when I click on a variable, sometimes when I attempt to open a FSM in the PlayMaker window, sometimes when I right click a transition and sometimes when I try to switch the order of actions within the state. It definitely hints to something GUI-related, so I'm going to try your method of removing tabs.
Unfortunately, the errors I was able to dig up are the only ones I get. Usually, when it crashes, I get absolutely no warning, log or post-crash prompt (to send a bug report, for example).
