You are great guys, really great. But, sorry to say this, Fab is far below your standard quality. And it is a slap in the face to all developers.

People in the comments don't understand what these lectures are about. PLENTY of videos made by the creators of GAEA and Celsium on doing the process they're talking about. There's no reason for them to remake and regurgitate a tutorial. If this intrigues you, now you go ahead and get those plugins and follow their tutorials. Simple.

We need more features, not just a basic cloner

When will a complete video tutorial for all functions of Motion Design be provided? The official documentation is not complete, and many contents are not introduced in detail. .

where can the African animal Pack be found now? I cant seem to find it on Fab.

I think crappy and unfinished releases are not only unique to games. 😅 At least Bridge is back to 5.5 until they solve this mess.

Wishlists, Text Reviews and Comments should be at the FRONT of the roadmap. Not at near the end. You should match feature parity of the old store FIRST.

@UnrealEngine listen, you guys are sleeping on this big time! poor documentation, no proper in-depth dive into the motion design tools!. Many many pros want to get into this so bad but don't have the time to demystify it ourselves. We need: A. Good, In-depth Documentation. B. Solid In-depth video deep dives. Please make this happen soon!!!

I’ve had a career in motion design for almost 10 years and this is the biggest innovation I’ve seen in this field by far!

NO one wanted fab, where are the Reviews and Questions? Why does it need another browser and does not work inside the launcher? Where is the wishlist? whoever decided on this change needs to get a reality check!

In all honesty the professional should be between 500k - 1 mill. 100k is to low and some of the prices for the professional is like crazy.

I hate it so much.

Reviews and questions being so far in the roadmap is an insult to customers and sellers. Customers don't get to see reviews and if questions have been answered. Sellers don't get any sales because people don't want to spend money on something they're unsure even works properly. Literally nothing but downsides. Should've waited for this to be fully done before forcing it on everyone.

I hope to see more motion design tutorials from unreal engine in the future!

Hello Epic Games, I am very happy with the roadmap and the announced features. However, I have some points to address. As a seller it would be very nice to have more insights into my product page and how it performs. By this I mean features like simple analytics. For example it would be very useful to see how many people saw my product, how many people actually clicked on my product and how many people bought my product. A feature like this would enable me to optimize how I market my product, fix stuff that does not perform good and in general build a better revenue for my business. Another issue I personally see is the loss of quality of the published products (Sorry but that’s how I see it). This is my personal opinion and since I do not have any specific data you could name it an assumption, however when I browsed the old marketplace, I was feeling pretty save when it came to buying assets (mostly 3D environments). On FAB I see a lot of stuff where I ask myself how this even passed the quality check. When I started publishing on FAB I also tried uploading 3D assets (Now my products are mostly code plugins) but was denied because the packs were to small. Now I see products like „The Cube“ which are low to no effort as it is literally the default cube. This does not mean that everything on FAB is bad but you are never sure if the product you are buying really is functional since the quality needed to entrance the market seems to be fairly low. All in all the launch of FAB was harsh, but I believe if you keep listening to the community that FAB can still become a widely liked platform for game assets and other goods. Thanks!

Dear Epic, please listen to your audience, developers. We’re not just consumers. A lot of questions during this stream were not answered. And you dropped vital features when migrating to dev. At the very least, we shouldn’t have to lose the extreme value that we had in reviews, and questions and answers. I wish the FAB team success. The Marketplace was overdue for an upgrade, but currently, this is a downgrade with a reskin. I know dev isn’t easy, but I wish feature parity at least would’ve been maintained. Best of luck for the future. I hope the basic features we lost along the way are prioritized.

Thanks for this info

WISHLIST IS EMERGENCY

U guys setting all the store licenses to standard when a lot of us paid a premium (in terms of a professional license) before the launch for those assets (some being over 5+ yrs old) to now have to repay the same price is literal robbery.... and sellers wonder why their sales are low... to zero...

I don't know if you guys didn't have enough resources or what but this reminds me of giving presentations to the professor when first learning how to write software. "This is, uh a button... and when you hover it changes color! and uh, it opens a panel when you click it. Well the panel doesn't open yet but you can imagine it." You guys made an online store - great - but have done very little to tailor it to the specific needs of your customers or improve on what it is replacing. The goal of the website is to make it easy for customers to browse and purchase assets, not to just 'deliver a working website'. If Fab is supposed to replace Marketplace, Artstation, Sketchfab and Bridge then give it the dev resources that all of those things had combined. I don't know what the roadblock is here - I'm sure there are smart and talented people working on it - but it just feels like a generic corporate committee deliverable. Something custom written like this should be well tailored to the specific use cases but it still seems to be working on the 'being a functional online store' part. I would think this problem was hard but you have solo devs like Herobrine writing Orbital market and even illegal reseller sites by like some dude in Uzbekistan that manage to provide more features and an easier user experience than Fab, because at least they know what they're trying to make instead of reinventing the wheel. There's an amazing irony here in a storefront that sells code projects that doesn't work well because they're trying to write new code for problems that have already been solved a thousand times.

"we are making Megascans cost again because we want to be fair to other creators" uh, maybe the other creators should sell a better product then? This seems like a very disingenuous reason to charge for Megascans again. If you want money for the work just say so, we are developers, not children. I also agree with what others have said here, the first priority should be usability for developers to actually find and get the content we paid for. This other website discoverability stuff can wait.

Completely destroyed the old Marketplace (which had it's issues) and replaced it with something that barely works - which you must have known to begin with. I've legit been thinking about releasing products for the store and all the signs are telling me to not do it now.

Being honest, I hate it. Got to about the 10 minute mark(during the demo) and I will do my best to not use this. First thing is it needs to be fully integrated into the engine like Quixel Bridge. I don't want to juggle apps and switch back and forth. Also, what do you mean Megascans are free till the end of the year? I am not ever going to pay for assets that were originally free. I guess it is time to get better at modeling my own assets in Blender. Might be time to switch over to Godot as well. This just seems like Epic trying to more heavily monetize just like Unity did, but they hope it is in a more palatable way. Not gonna fly for me.

I was fine with Quixel Bridge and loathe stupid rebranding crap. Just try not to do it again in a year or two.

I think the transition to Fab is the most disgusting and raw transition in the history of Epics

This looks really great, but it probably requires a lot of knowledge of how to use the PCG system to do something like this. So I would really like to see a tutorial on how to set everything up, and it would be great but also very helpful if you guys would realize that.

34:10 that's strange to hear, as a UE marketplace seller my sales dropped to 0 this month (never happened before), and I've seen many other sellers saying the same, it makes sense as it got diluted in a sea of other products and it's hard to be discovered among so many other assets It was awesome while it lasted, but I'm afraid it is the end, but hopefully things change in the upcoming months

Please add an auto-update feature for certain assets still in the Epic Launcher. I hate searching for the orange dot among 1,000 assets and plugins.

Hire a new UX director. Seriously. This is worse than what the hulu guys did to call of duty. And dont tell me "oh its so hard to unifiy various stores" its not. literally. Everthing thats asset packs and content packs ( like unreal marketplace) will get its section, and then, you will have a bridgle like section for everything else! AND THEN the fab plugin will use the brige like UI/UX . And btw, BY THE WAY, this is not hard to do. its a layout thing. :O i know right? fire that guy. he sucks at layouts.

It's pretty clear at this point that supporting serious devs for UEFN isn't a priority for Epic, I wasted a lot of time and money developing tools and assets only to get buried by the algorithm and have no way to monetize anything except compete with 20 years olds cranking out meme games. They are just using UEFN to extend Fortnite's life and dogfood features that they will actually support in UE6. Beyond dissapointed

I'd have two question - If would like to redeem key from eg. Humble Bundle - Do I have to activate key in epic account, then it will be in FAB library ? If the asset has unreal and unity package as well, i get both of them?

Epic Games' success is based on giving developers the tools they need to create products. Stop treating developers as consumers, we're not the same.

Start @ 4:35

No black friday sale?

Y'all know you could've just waited till FAB was done and not needed a roadmap? No reason the site shouldn't have feature parity with the unreal marketplace, especially as barren and featureless as that already was. I don't see the reason for rushing this out the door as hard as you did.

"Level playing field", please. It's going paid for more revenue. It's better to simply not address it than to insult people's intelligence.

Personally I think more support/better implementation for 2D Programs/Non-Engine Tools in general is much needed - Especially when the artstation store transition is gonna happen

Oh look, they are planning to add a bunch of features no one cares or asked about. You should be focusing on Wishlists, Sales, Reviews & Questions first. You should be prioritizing what people need the most.

why is the wishlist so far in the roadmap

thank you

the best thing Is bridge back again, there we go !!

FAB does NOT work at all for me in any version of UE other than 5.5, which is not ideal. Where is the local currency and date format? You are losing sales every single day with this travesty of a 'marketplace'
