Failed import for Material

Hi all,
I would like to load .uasset file to my project, I tried to drag to Content Drawer inside of the Editor, but UE5 show the error message.

/Game/Test/Translucency_Test_M : Failed import for Material /Game/Test/Translucency_Test_M.Translucency_Test_M Referenced by export ObjectRedirector /Game/Test/Translucency_Test_M.Translucency_Test

I tried to move .uasset file to the Content folder that outside Editor, but I can not find my .uasset file after restart Editor.

I already tried Fix Up Redirectors in Folder, delete Config, Saved, and Intermediate folder, it still not working.

Someone plz help me.

Strangely, the engine can’t import uasset files. You just have to drag them into the content folder externally ( in windows ). Then they will appear in the content browser.

From where did you got the uasset file?

Presumably the OP already has this file.

Hi ClockworkOcean,

Maybe I didn’t describe it clearly, but I have tried this method and it didn’t work

Hi dorusoftware,
The .uasset file is from a backup of the same project.

Ah, then it sounds like a different version of the engine?

you could try opening the old project then use the migrate functionality to move the asset to the project you want it to be
