[Free Marketplace Assets] A Patreon page funded approach :D

Distribution UE Marketplace

  • QUICK UPDATE -

We are currently in private discussions with Epic Games, Inc. regarding this community focused initiative I have proposed & there may be some delays with our full announcement due to some aspects of what we wish to do being in the grey area of Epic Games Marketplace policies regarding FREE content on the UE4 Marketplace + EUA royalty agreements.

This might require us to change our launch & release strategy somewhat to either charge for our content on the UE4 Marketplace but cheaply i.e. $1 to $5 OR operate the Marketplace completely through our own sub-domain website we are currently working on and which can be found here: http://patreon.binarysword.com/

NOTE: Our website currently in development was intended more as a place to provide information via an overview + FAQ, Blog & gallery/catalogue of all our Asset ‘Crates’ that have been released (hyperlinked to the UE4 Marketplace).

I would also like to state that this forum thread will most likely find a new home in the “Community Content, Tools and Tutorials” sub-forum due to that reason stated above.

Furthermore,
We might still release some of the banners & media for this community focused initiative we are proposing strictly for feedback (we don’t want to generate too much hype for now) but we will not be launching our https://www.patreon.com/BinarySword & http://patreon.binarysword.com pages until at least the 15th of April or later and only if we can come to a resolve with not only Epic Games & my colleagues on these possible changes but also from you guys weather you believe such an initiative would be a good thing or a bad thing overall for the benefit of the UE4 Community as a whole (both buyers & sellers on the UE4 Marketplace)

I’m glad you’re interested :smiley: be sure to subscribe to this forum thread & feel free to sign-up for our newsletter on our WIP website here: http://patreon.binarysword.com to stay in the loop on future developments of this community focused initiative.

NOTE TO SELF: Come up with a better, more catchy name for this project :wink:
