haha, well, there’s that MMO Kit guy from the other thread, so we’re not that far off! Have you seen that thing? It’s amazing!

Your first idea , second and third ideas are great , but You read something in thread ?

Are you asking if I’ve read something specific in the thread, or if I’ve read the thread? I have read the thread, yes, but there’s only so much I can comment on right now. If there’s anything more specific I can address, I can do my best.

Hey , good to hear! A couple things:

  • Will we be able to provide higher resolution thumbnails for the UE4 web marketplace? As it stands now it is a blurred version of the smaller thumbnail which isn’t really displaying content in the best of light.

-I submitted a second content pack about a week ago through the trello form, there was no mention of including the actual assets there from what I remember. Will I be contacted about that, or should I resubmit now that you are going to be reviewing before the trello voting?

-With regards to ratings, its good that we have that now and you are looking into the current issues like inability to change it. Would it be possible however to tie ratings to comments? It would be beneficial for sellers and consumers to know why someone rated the way they did, rather than just seeing a star rating and having to guess why that was the case. More information can help consumers make informed purchases, and sellers address feedback.

-Any ETA on when the sales tracking might be available to developers, and if we may see the integration of promo codes or customer emailing lists to notify them of sales, promo codes, updates, etc?

Thanks!

Hey !

  1. Thumbnail sizes. Yes, with the web Marketplace, there’s a new thumbnail size that we’re modifying our guidelines to support. Many thumbnails do look a bit rough right now, and we’re working out the best way to get them updated. More on that soon, because I really want to get that polished.

  2. Files – I’ll contact you about that. :slight_smile: Submitting files earlier in the process is something I’ve been pushing to do for awhile and it was only week where I found the correct way to do it that everyone could agree on. The first batch of requests for files is going out week.

  3. Comments tied to ratings – that’s an interesting idea! I’ll talk to the web team and find out more about how ratings and comments work to see if something along those lines is possible.

  4. No ETA yet, but is something I’m in constant discussion about with the team. In fact, I have a meeting in ten minutes about it to discuss how we’re moving forward. I can’t really give any details on yet unfortunately, but I will the moment I’m able to. As for sales, that is something we’re going to be exploring more in the near future. We have the infrastructure and support for it, so it’s mainly just a matter of finding the best time and way to advertise it and to work with the sellers on something that makes sense.

Thanks guys!
