### Summary

Ever since the v40.00 update there is a purple hue for the Chroma\_LaserArena assets I purchased from FAB. Does anybody have any idea why these assts now have a strange hue to them when brought into the editor?

Once you push the map to a session it looks correct. This hue is only apparent in the editor.

Not all the meshes have a purple tint. Some are very light colored with an iridescent like glow that is not normal.

### Please select what you are reporting on:

### Steps to Reproduce

Place a mesh from the Chroma\_LaserArena FAB assets into the editor.

### Expected Result

The meshes should look normal without a purple or glowing iridescent hue.

### Observed Result

The meshes have a purple or glowing iridecent hue.

### Platform(s)

PC in UEFN
