It most certainly a bug. Tried to bake out materials in UE5.4.1 and UE5.3.2 the created material and textures don’t show up in content browser. Funny thing is that material shows up in explorer but texture doesn’t. Its like a magic to me because its loaded in engine and I can even open it by opening a material that on a mesh and then from a material open a texture, but where does engine loads it from only god knows because I cant find it anywhere on disk. Btw restarting doesn’t help, it still magickly loads those shadow assets.
