A competitor store would do the job, hardest part would be to get costumers becouse due to the fact of being a new store with little content.
Guess there’s not much to do about it than wait and see if Fab do something in the future.

Very true!
I cannot confirm nor deny that I have already gave up hope on Fab and took some serious steps towards this.

Is it bad that I used this in lieu of Fab’s search engine?
And someone is trying to sell an megatank from Warhammer 40K.

I would switch, tbh. There is a hole in the 3D market left by Fab’s shortcomings and nobody has yet stepped in to fill it.
As long as it has comparable license, basic product moderation for stuff like the rampant IP theft in this thread, and a few basic features (search tool that works???) I’d be over there in a heartbeat
everybody needs a plumbus in their home

So…It turns out it was the word Heart!
I have now changed the title from - Designer bag Heart style - to - designer bag Mottled style - and it has been approved and re-listed.
I’m at a complete loss as to how the word heart got my product de-listed.
Any idea’s?..anyone.
Meanwhile, on Fab. Someone had uploaded an pan flute from an Zelda game.
Cloud City from Star Wars. Speaking of which,I’ve found someone else trying to sell stuff from Star Wars, but I think that all of their content predated the merger.
$50 to $100 for an Imperial warship from WarHammer 40k
This shipyard comes kind of close to the one from Homeworld 2, imo. But it’s not an actual ripped model as far as I can tell
Who knows? Most of the searches for that word comes up as the shape or the organ

Yep, and yet I get delisted for a single word.
I don’t suppose I’ll ever find out why… or why others seem to be getting away with…things like have been posted above

Well, an lot of this stuff predates the merger. Like this random Riptide variant that I found (thankfully, I don’t see the rest of the battlesuits).
But I know for an fact not everything from SketchFab had made it over. Like some of the Paragon characters, for example. Although, I’m not sure if Epic actually deleted all of the NSFW ones, considering how there’s one of them sitting around

ugh. I just wish they would do something.
It’s not just “old” SketchFab products that have the issue: even new Unreal products are straight up stolen.
Case in point: https://www.fab.com/listings/e60b963a-1302-4289-9158-f6cfcaa9c001
This is a whole city, ripped from The Crew. It was submitted a few years ago on the Marketplace, and taken down in a couple of days after being reported.
Yet here we are, a few years later, and not only is the exact same stuff happening again, but this time it seems like it’s business as usual?

I remember this city, the comments section saved me from buying this one.
lmao this is insane
And they are just totally ignoring this so far, it is beyond frustrating
And now we have LEGO too.

Oh yep lmao you’re right and here’s another one:

This was the top result sorting by newest, which means they JUST approved it (approval date is today). @skfabby really, can we get any kind of response whatsoever on this?
Anything whatosever? It has literally been weeks.
Every day I sort by new to see what new asset rips are being approved by Epic’s review team. Today we have literally dozens of AI generated boomboxes (not IP theft but people are so tired of the AI junk https://www.fab.com/listings/7a6b8ee7-52a3-4fbf-aee6-f3666e9e3434), all of these new Lego assets for sale, gameboy, chevrolet vehicles, air jordans, Squid Game, spongebob, and tons and tons of pretty high quality meshes being dumped for $0.99 (pretty suspicious, esp. given complaints from other users about their assets being ripped from the 3D viewer and re-listed by others).
This needs to be addressed if anyone is going to be able to seriously consider using this store for game development.

Not even Mr.Beast escaped Fab with their polemic “Launchly” snacks or whatever it is.

Probably until their legal team contacts them, at this rate. However, with as much work as we’re doing, they might as well be paying us
But for now, we have someone selling stuff from Skylanders & Star Wars.
The Enterprise from Star Trek
Free Warhammer 40k content I would really apprrciate an blacklist, right about now
Another 40k model that’s better made
An collection of clone troopers from Star Wars. Admittedly better made than most of the models that I’ve seen

lmao it’s so much stuff >_>
Yeah,most of the stuff that I’ve seen is mainly Star Wars or 40k. I won’t be shocked to see if someone is ripping of Disney or Marvel
Ripping off Disney is financial suicide.
