I need a straight answer before I waste a ton of money on storage

OK, great. Nice to know. Wish the original explanation had been that clear.

However, I have a new issue: as of today, 11/8/24, my Quixel bridge suddenly does not export my locally downloaded assets. Quixel.ms (3dsmax 2023) is no longer resident. Am I supposed to manually do what Bridge/Mixer would do automatically from now on? I get the buy out/merger/whatever happened, but this sort of issue should not occur and is not only frustrating, but makes what used to be a well established workflow that went smoothly into a manual nightmare of lost time. So, what is Epic Games/FAB going to replace Quixel Bridge with? Having to manually scrub through the countless acquired assets without Bridge doing the heavy lifting behind the screen really makes work a drudgery. Merger/buyout/whatever is going every bit as bad from an end user standpoint as when Ricoh acquired Ikon and became RIKON.
