I am having exactly the same issue. On 2 other products. If you go to Settings > Show Logs in your Epic Launcher, you will find EpicLauncher log file. If you examine that file you’ll see entries about Download manifest missing.

It appears that many assets fail to download due to the server related issue, either the manifests failed to port over to FAB, or there’s a bug somewhere on the server side.

I’m seeing the same thing on my end. I can’t create projects from assets. I really hope this is fixed soon

Looked at the log and found this error: {“Not Found”:“Could not find any manifest download info with artifactId=TowerDefcf5b5d028cd2V1”}
