How does the fabric migration work? Question
When opening quixel bridge from the engine it tells me that megascans have moved to fab. When I search for assets it tells me to "get it on fab". If I go to Fab then my assets arent even purchased yet. The only place where I have access to my megascan assets now is on the separate quixel website. This means both the quixel and fab plugins don't work anymore making this much more inconvenient. Why/ how can my assets be purchased on one platform but not the other even on the same account?
Edit: All my downloads are failing from the quixel website. Draging and dropping from the plugin worked 2 weeks ago lol. Idk how to fix this.

Did you claim all megascans from fab.com before 1.1.2025?

No, but I claimed them on quixel bridge. I would assume the merge would carry over the assets you own but even if it doesn't, the quixel plugin should still work so I can acess my assets.

Have you checked if the ones you have claimed appear in your library on fab.com?
Quixel is moving all assets claimed through bridge or quixel.com to the fab.com library during this month so it could be related to that.
The quixel bridge and quixel.com are eventually going to be removed.

Yeah my library doesn't have any of those assets. Does this really make sense though, I have 18k confirmed purchased assets on q Bridge (As seen in the photo) but none of it will move over to FAB

There seems to be a bunch of free quixel assets on FAB but many are paid.

I think if you have claimed them all that way they should be moving to your fab library.
But the ones claimed through bridge are being integrated in to fab.com during this month so it just probably hasn't happened yet.
I also can't really troubleshoot this issue since my account has all the megascans claimed from fab.com and downloading from quixel.com and quixel bridge both work.

Interesting, thanks for the help. I tried to get official support but that didn't work either. The fab support form just wouldn't submit and epic doesn't have personal support unless you are a large developer or something. I even tried the ue forums but the link to login took me to something that didn't exist. In short, it's been a long few hours. I'm hoping that the library crossover thing works, otherwise I'll be out or luck.

I got the same issue, when I go to fab through unreal engine etc, my library is empty. Yet it says that I claimed the quixel assets back in november or october through quixel site or bridge.

If I remember correctly, you should have claimed on both the Fab and Quixel sites because the selections are slightly different.
