I created a UEFN island. I can click launch session and enter creative mode inside the island. I can also upload the project / launch memory calculation and get an island code that i can share with my team members. My team can enter the island with the code.
The problem is my team members who do not have UEFN installed cannot access creative mode inside the island. Is it not possible to place prefabs without UEFN and just using fortnite?
How did people use to create and upload island before UEFN was launched?
Welcome to UEFN and Fortnite Creative! Here are the answers to your questions below:
Before UEFN was launched, creators would invite collaborators to their lobbies and enter a Fortnite Creative session this way. By doing this, creators were able to build and collaborate on maps together when given the proper permissions.
HOW TO COLLABORATE IN UEFN
If you are using UEFN and wanting to collaborate with creators now, you will have to add them to a team. Once the creators you add to your team pass verification, they will be able to join a UEFN session and help you build your map.

You are correct. At the time of this post - for UEFN team collaboration, the other members must also have UEFN.
