Validation error if Fab content used

Summary

Hey guys, after the 38.0 update I can’t evaluate the size of the project - always getting this error:
LogValkyrie: Display: ProjectSizeRequest::CancelFlow for c3b9aa41-4a12-86d3-3b62-9a98fc2ea0fd - Could not find the requested resource

So just created a new project and as soon as I start using any of my Fab content (imported via Library > add to content Browser to Referenced Content folder) elements from any set I bought I am getting this error.

No errors on manually imported fbx assets.

Is this error blocking the publishing or can I still publish even with the error? I ca not avoid using the Fab content - I spent a lot of money and my game uses many of the Fab assets.

hi @TheSandsquad

If the documentation does not help, you may have to report a problem to FAB

Import from Fab in Unreal Editor for Fortnite | Fortnite Documentation | Epic Developer Community

@Jimbohalo10 thx but have you seen - many users have reported the same problem - starting from 38.0 this is happening. I had no issues before. I have followed exactly the same path as you linked in the docu. Thats not the Fab issue 100%. Its not the issue that assets are big or my Ref.Folder is full and too heavy. Its something wrong with the size validation with the imported this way assets.

Please vote this up and create a report on this problem on FAB.

Please upload the complete logs so that Epic Support engineers can check them.

Please give the name of the FAB assets, preferably links

There is a complete error related log screenshot attached.

I tried with many differen Fab assets and they all caused this error - same error doesn’t matter which fab asset was used. No error as I removed it.

Important: its not enough just to start the Size estimatation to reproduce! Always first save and launch the session - only than the new version will be cooked and then the size estimation will drop the error if you used the Fab asset or no error if you removed it.

I have last time tested with these sets (different assets from the sets:

I have the same problem showing Error! See Output Log for the past couple of days, my map has lots of fab assets and never had a problem and my map is optimised to be under the thresholds,i tried a memory calculation and every check is green but still we can’t see the details for the Upload Size and Download Size

Can you publish updates for your island having this error? Have you tried?

I haven’t cause my map is not released yet but i think i should be able to since every check is green when going to the publish tab

Same issue here, keep having to basically rebuild the map and start over :confused: I’m on version 7 now due to this bug.

Yeah I also completely rebuilt the game and currently building without Fab assets at all :downcast_face_with_sweat:

Hey guys, what is the status here? Any progress? Can you at least confirm that this issue definitely doesn’t block the publishing? I have rebuilt the game and removed all Fab elements. Can I add them?

Any updates? This absolutely halts progress.
