Low Marketplace Sales

Well now my original response no longer makes sense since you’ve edited yours :joy:, but thanks anyway.

Just in case someone is interested.
I have seen a lot of creator content moving on 5 version.
There are a lot of dev like us whose project is stick on 4.27.
Pretty simple: you ar emoving to a market where there are no more (or much less) customer than before.
That’s just my personal experience however.

Request for LTS versions of UE and marketplace assets.

They are definitely milking the cow while all we want is bugfixes and stability, a community in good health. LTS software and terms adapted to LTS would support this.

Non fortnite questions or reports to EPIC… well…

[Request] re open "bug report" category to non fortnite users.

I personally have 0 interest in blueprints besides making 1 minute sketches before it goes into c++. I don’t care about Fortnite. Don’t need new features and forced updates unless it is my own tactical decision. I certainly don’t need bugs and flaws that people have reported waiting until eternity because it’s not taken care of and I am forced to have it in my software. Blegh.

Some quality over quantity would stop it from dying.

Personally all my assets are available from 4.27 to 5.4 (4.26 for one).
I don’t think it’s related, in one year I gradually lost +75% of sales for no reason.

If you have acquired items from UE Marketplace over the years, you will have access to the UE Marketplace-licensed version of the content in Vault. After Fab’s launch, if a product has been updated to include additional file formats, it will be available for download on Fab.com.
For more information, check out [today’s announcement]

If the seller had declined to update the product this means it wont be available on FAB.

This means you must save all your Vault these locally (Many GB space required) and backup to USB

ALL UE 4. assets must be downloaded NOW, the will no appear on FAB.*

Didn’t we all switch to Hyperwallet in 2021?

Well that was the old version of Hyperwallet.
Just check you are registered on the latest version and your tax details are loaded or in Europe you could encounter “with holding tax” in some countries

If you’ve already successfully set up a Hyperwallet account, you can change your tax profile or payout information at any time from your program’s portal. Then reach out to Player Support to ensure the changes are also made to your Hyperwallet account.

Updated 12th June 2024 with latest link to all major new methods of selling in future FAB etc
