How to use fortnite texture

I want to use Fortnite textures like wood etc to create my own material. I can’t do that, the project check doesn’t pass. But I can take a screenshot of the texture I want, import it into uefn and use it, is that legal?

Hello Strelloke,

That’s a good question. I don’t think you’ll find a Yes/No answer here on the Forums.

In my opinion - as long as it is only used within UEFN it would be ok. (I think the only reason Textures/Materials are locked down is because they must be the same for everyones FN install)

You’re saying project check doesn’t pass when you try to launch a session right? (Validation error) as opposed to a Moderation check failing? - Some sort of automated texture moderation detecting the screenshotted textures would be my concern.

Hopefully we will have more built-in remixing freedom in the future.
