Hi everyone,
Thanks to Unreal Jess who helped me a bit over Twitter, I managed to figure out why our assets weren’t just importing. There is a setting in preferences, under Loading & Saving called “Monitor Content Directories”. It was not ticked by default. I ticked it, saved project. Closed project. Copied assets into folder. Re-opened project. And it’s happily beavering away importing all the assets.
Cheers,
David
