In this episode, we guide you through adding assets from outside of unreal engine like the Spaceship and Jet Fighter from Sketchfab to your project. You will learn how to import static meshes and skeletal meshes with animation and have them placed in your scene.

There are going to be so many Star Wars Hangar animations out there after this tutorial series. You guys are doing a good and an indelible mark on UE development. It is great! I believe this will generate a lot of eager new Unreal users.

[SergeRamelliPhotography]

great tutorial same I was always using FBX and then had to re connect or recreate textures life saving!

To fix the Tie_Fighter Material issue - Modeling mode -> Attributes -> Normals -> Accept

[georgesjunglerc]

Thank you for another great video. When I imported the GLB file, the textures on one wing are missing. Is there a setting in the import that may fix this. Thanks for your help.

[imanrezaei]

thank you guys, so excited for the final result🤩

[pacificlinedesign]

Great work / good stuff. Can't wait to try out polycam. Thank you for making this.. Cheers.

[DESIGNSBYIZZ]

Now we're getting into the good stuff! Great job guys.

[darioscala]

I'm literally eating this series of video. Thank you guys, you are giving us the key to work with our creativity

[michaelb]

your glb just helped me in combine mesh awesome

[StrangebutTrueStudios]

Not sure why it's breaking floor texture, but for me this worked... Just go outside into space outside the spaceship and pull out the asset, then move it back into your spaceship.

[StevePaulSounds]

amazing!!! is there a way to make it so the planet isn't a weird shape at that elevation?

[fmoney]

I can not believe I made it this far I must finish.

[Spade]

For me tho my graphics card is intel arc a 750, the glass is not reflecting the lights like yours just some blur lights how can I make it look like your or is it just the capacity limits of my graphics card?

[austinstephensD]

one of my wings on the tie is completely black for some reason

[monk_]

@badxstudio The TIE fighter you guys download and the one you use seem to be different.
The one in the link is 42mb, yet the one you use is only 9.4mb.
The names don't seem to match either. The 42mb comes with more files and sometimes breaks the floor texture.

[davidyohe]

One Wing of my Tie Fighter is just black, am I the only one experiencing this? How can I fix it?

[jacobrampage]

When placing down the tie fighter it breaks my floor texture
only fixes if I undo and not if i delete it

[danodesigndanomotion]

Hello, for some reason the textures of the tie fighter do not appear correctly on one side of the wings. Do you have any idea what it could be?
