I think the thumbnail problem is really a problem. My assets always look like this, but your plugin works with a tipology of assets that is too narrow. This is how my assets look like. And changing thumbnail is also needed for statich meshes and materials above all. I know there is no way to do that, but maybe some trick? Like puttin materials in some other classes, or I don’t know… ![Screenshot_1](https://d3kjluh73b9h9o.cloudfront.net/original/4X/e/c/3/ec3c4b413212cc7090bcaf25b1a8179f66c6038d.jpeg) ---

As you said, it is not possible to edit Materials and Meshes thumbnail at the moment in Unreal Engine. One solution would be to create a custom Material and Custom Mesh type, but that’s hacky and if one day you don’t use QuickThumbnail, your assets would be broken. I hope that in the future the thumbnail API evolves so that we can customize all of them. ---

Hey! This plugin is useful, thanks so much for building it. However, it doesn’t seem to support UE 5.8 yet. Are there any plans to update it for 5.8 compatibility?
