Thousands of "Secret" Free Assets for Unreal Engine Virtual Production

In this video, we take a look at a "secret" FREE cache of virtual production assets available on the Unreal Engine Marketplace. Most users know about the Free-for-the-month items, and the Free section in general, but there's one, rather non-descript little item in the Marketplace's Free section that is easy to miss, yet contains THOUSANDS of free, high quality meshes for vegetation, furniture, props, materials, and much more.
This video will show you how to find and install them, and how to access them in Unreal once installed.

This was actually very useful. Epic has a lot of hidden gems like this, thanks for highlighting this one.

[@shetkar911]

I can't thank you enough. this plugin saved my plenty of time creating new library. Thanks mate

[@diliupg]

If you have UE4 and UE5 both, you add approximately 60Gb of "Assets you may use" to your hard drive.

[@zinetx]

Your voice is so relaxing. Just subbed!

[@owenb6499]

[@Enkeria]

Just checked and I own all free stuff on Unreal, since I wanted to make a game a few years back, and still do. So been collecting on monthly basis.

Should I copy assets I need from the Engine/Plugin folder to make my final game less in size? The whole Twinmotion pack is about 30 Gb, I'm not sure I need it all…

[@sonofzues8414]

HEY thank you very much I claimed these yestarday.

[@joyddeyto5345]

How can use that in higher version of unreal, coz it's compatible in ue5.03

[@01asifkhan]

Hi was a great help until I started packaging the file it show me error can’t find plugin and if I disable the twin motion content plugin it packages fine really need an urgent help on it thanks

[@twotimescreations1888]

can anyone answer this? so in the blueprints it says something about "it just works" for third person, but it simply does not, it actually throws some errors, i have built a BP system on combos and such and yes i can swing once and then everything just breaks. is there any steps i need to take to make these animations successful for UE5

[@oktatamarareksa9088]

i use 5.1, already download it but i dont see the twinmotion content other than datasmith twinmotion content. and there's also no bunch of asset there

[@BadBanana]

I'm attempting to build a university campus inside unreal and this will do nicely

[@Instant_Nerf]

Thank you man. How big is all this content that it’s downloading.? Is it like 50GB?

[@patchadventures9247]

34GB

[@dinossauroromano]

Cool

[@ATomCzech]

Sadly last version where it is possible to install it is UE 5.1, there should option to force install on unsupported version, because it will anyway works. 😞 You basical need to download old version install it there and then move it manually to latest version :-(

[@ctjanney]

GOLD

[@aleksandarstevanovic19]

can I use it on 5.1.1?

[@clendrywilson7001]

Do you actually need the twinmotion app downloaded too or just the plugin, sir?

[@PixelProf]

No need to install Twinmotion. Just the plugin.

[@clendrywilson7001]

@@PixelProf thank you so much

[@tigeramine8156]

i installed the twwinmotion content plugin to my UE 5.1 but i couldnt find it in the instaled plugins when i entered the engine!

[@mrderpvalentim1683]

same problem here, have you found the solution?

[@DRLarkin]

Hey, I see you have "Twinmotion Boats Pack 1" but I do not see it on the Marketplace. Any idea on how I could get my hands on a copy?

[@PixelProf]

Maybe it's a glitch.... does this link work?... www.unrealengine.com/marketplace/en-US/item/c3e0d51503b049fa89ce91a8b259928a

[@morbidfancy1]

thank u :_)

[@ejnoro8371]

Did I do something wrong? When I filter for static mesh I only get one item… I also don’t have some of the folders you have like foliage etc

[@ejnoro8371]

Followed everything exactly and I can't find the content... I have some of the folders but most of it is not there

[@marcjoseph1124]

can't seem to find the free for the month page on the marketplace

[@PixelProf]

It's a section on the Marketplace Home Page, just below the "Showcase" items. 🙂

[@marcjoseph1124]

oh yes i see thank you!@@PixelProf

[@snookofficial7211]

Sadly you can't install it to 5.2, also it's a huge download at 34GB for the few assets that you may use

[@ygreq]

You install it to 5.1 and then migrate it into your 5.2 project.

[@Oli_BeatZ]

Twinmotion Assets Is like Real

[@germanmairen]

Not working on UE 5.4

[@holdthetruthhostage]

Hmm 🤔

[@prelux8186]

Theres no twinmotion content plugin

Here's a link to the "content" in the Marketplace: www.unrealengine.com/marketplace/en-US/product/twinmotion-content-for-unreal-engine-plugin-beta Here's a link to the Importer Plugin for Unreal Datasmith (though this is not needed to get/use the content): www.unrealengine.com/marketplace/en-US/product/21cab2d84a794b7bab359eb1ba5d3e74

it nearly 30gbs that was main reason I had not open it🤣

[@Sim2322]

No need to type, lol... See that tab labeled "Twinmotion", to the right of the tab you're in?!

[@PixelProf]

:-) :-p

[@joseftsubas2240]

Can NOT be used commercially, unless you buy Twinmotion license. Must stress this point!

[@tuazulyrojoeljean]

Damn it! I knew it was too good to be truth

[@LilYet]

you are aloud to use it for all unreal engine based products same with any other asset you don't need a twin motion license unless you use it outside unreal

[@LilYet]

its the same with quixel assets

[@nomorecookiesuser2223]

I do not know if they changed it recently, but the Twinmotion assets in the Library are labelled as "UE-Only Content - Licensed for Use Only with Unreal Engine-based Products" not a separate Twinmotion license.

[@stephsnotfluffy]

Better have 34gb of space free 0.0

[@ChristopherFranko]

Are you using the whisper voice because you dont want anyone to know the secret?

[@Fennosims]

to bad they are not for 5.1

[@PixelProf]

They can be installed to (and work with) 5.0 and 5.1 at the moment. (this was recorded before the 5.1 release, so 5.1 doesn't appear in this video.) 🙂

[@Fennosims]

@@PixelProf is there a video somewhere to tells how to get them to work for 5.1??

[@PixelProf]

@@Fennosims Should be exactly the same as with this video recorded in 5.0. Did you try this and run into a different result?

[@Fennosims]

@@PixelProf twinmotion doesnt show up in my plugins

[@PixelProf]

@@Fennosims You have to search for it in the Marketplace and install engine first.

[@adumbfuk]

Keep in mind that using those assets you cant just post a game for everyone to play To publicate your game you have to use your own assets you made You can only publicate a game with those assets to your friends to play.

[@ComradeCody3349]

Yes you can. As long as you build your game in "Shipping" format so none of the assets are accessible directly. Literally every single game studio does this- I work at an asset-outsourcing game studio where we make assets and sell them so others can use it in their games. Ive personally used the free assets in my games. You can read it in the marketplace's policy that once you add an asset to your vault, free or otherwise, you can use it commercially as well as long as the asset is cooked into the game.

[@LimbaZero]

@@ComradeCody3349 I think main problem here was it's marked as Engine plugin (Not as Asset Pack). So basically you can use output what it generates. Edit: Epic Games has split some of those assets as separated Asset Packs that can be used directly.

[@nomorecookiesuser2223]

that is simply not true.

[@nomorecookiesuser2223]

@@LimbaZero not sure if the change is recent, but the Twinmotion assets in the Library are now labeled "UE-Only Content - Licensed for Use Only with Unreal Engine-based Products" not a separate Twinmotion license

weird question but is it possible to make unreal engine 5 work like roblox studio i just think its way more user friendly im like so confused when i look at unreal but not when i look at Roblox studio
