Hey,
I have been using Unreal Engine for a while now, and I noticed since the transition to FAB that the Quixel blend material feature can’t be found. I have looked everywhere, even online without any luck.
And even though I know I could do this manually, having this feature would save me a lot of time.
Does anyone have the same issue? Or know where I can find this feature? Or is the (current) solution to just do it manually?
Thanks a lot!
Hi Gamy Blue,
If you install the Quixel Bridge plugin, you can found the “M_MS_SurfaceBlend_Material” in Content browser. I found it in this path : Engine/Plugins/Bridge/Content/MSPresets/M_MS_SurfaceBlend_Material/M_MS_SurfaceBlend_Material.uasset
This is just the master material and you need to change textures and parameters manually.
Hope you can fix your problem 
Hi SonNam01, and thanks for your helpful reply above. Now in May 2025, I have located the M_MS_SurfaceBlend_Material folder, but I am unable to load or import the uasset file. The drag-and-drop method generates a “Failed to Import” error, and the Content Drawer’s Import button won’t recognize the uasset file in the folder. Any advice? I assume the Bridge plugin was updated when 5.5 was released, so perhaps that accounts for any changes. On the other hand, since the SurfaceBlend_Material is present in the 5.5 installation, I assume that blended materials are still possible in 5.5. Thanks in advance if you have any suggestions for this noob.
Hi Genghis_Khanplex,
I haven’t visited the forums in a long time, so I wasn’t aware of your question. I’m not sure if you’ve already found the answer, but I’ll leave the solution here in case it’s still helpful for you.
In version 5.5, you need to enable the plugin content in the Content Browser by clicking the setting icon at the top right of the menu, then checking “Plugin Content.” You will find the Bridge folder there, along with the .uasset file you’re looking for. Just make sure that you have either the Fab Plugin or the Bridge Plugin installed.
