In this moment of uncertainty for the audiovisual industry (threatened by AI) the megascan library and its use via bridge represented a certainty for us 3D artists.
The ability to send assets and materials directly into our 3D software allowed us to be competitive, and we need it even more now that competition will force us to be faster and more effective.
The loss of the possibility of using bridge as we have always done in recent years is truly a hard blow for me and all my colleagues. I really hope that Epic Games takes a step back and allows us to use Bridge in the effective way they have accustomed us to.
I also knew that I would have until the end of the year to add other assets into “bridge”, but now I discover that the assets are free (and for this: thanks) but not usable in a functional way.
I have always had great respect for this company for their policy, now I feel emotionally disappointed.
Thank you for your work over these years, I hope you can resolve the current situation, we need it.
