I don't want my Materiel as an instance

[ShepardAustin]

Whenever I upload something to Unreal Engine 4 using Datasmith it turns my materials into instances; This extra layer of complexity is really annoying and I want to just avoid it completely but when I looked on the forums the epic people gave some speech about how it's more efficient and the "right way" to do it. Is there a way to get around these control freaks?

You could use python or dataprep to re apply masters but that will cost you performance wise
