Importing assets from FAB
and as Rex said, copying or moving will bork them, so remember it has to be migrated.
To get the latest Fab plugin you can download "default/vanilla" UE and copy it to projects plugin folder or UE-CSS plugins folder

Importing assets from FAB
Actually, update to this:
Importing Fab assets can be done via a plugin and MIGRATING them DIRECTLY into mod CONTENT folder, subfolders won't work:d

Importing assets from FAB
okay, so to include both ways and mark this question as answered, I'll merge it into one message:
Rex's approach:
1. download and install UE 5.3 from Epic Games 2. create a blank project in that UE 5.3 3. download the content from Fab and add it to that blank project 4. inside UE 5.3, migrate the assets you want to use inside a new folder at the root of the project (I called it AAA_Th3, any name should work as long as it's not already in use by FactoryGame) 5. in Windows File Explorer, copy the AAA_Th3 folder from the blank project to the modding project 6. open the modding project in UE-CSS and move the AAA_Th3 folder from Content into the plugin (mod) of your choiceMrHid6 approach:
you can use the Epic Game store inMany thanks for the input guys!Unreal Engine -> Libraryjust click add to project on the asset then clickShow All Projectsclick on the FactoryGame project it will come up with an error about not being compatible, just change the version to 5.3 and clickadd to project

Importing assets from FAB
huh, doing it with the approach MrHid6 suggested, it allowed me to use the migrate function into my mod folder, interesting. Unless I could do the same when I used the Fab plugin but I accidentely selected some other folder, I'd very much LOL about it then XD

Importing assets from FAB
wouldn't that cause the issue above, where if moved to mod content folder it causes assets to get borked (MIs going blank, meshes losing assigned textures/material)?

Importing assets from FAB
can't blame them, that would definitely speed up some things, especially that fab is filled with many pretty good assets, and that would be a life saver for less advanced users or people without much of a background in modeling or however the process of making these assets is called

Yeah, you could try enabling those settings, maybe your crashes were solely because of the Surface Cache. But if it does crash again with Niagara Tick mentioned in the crash report, these might be a reason why

Insta Crash when playing,
So good to hear that! I'll try to, but I'm not really good at explaining things lol:
Surface Cache Compression settings affects how UE stores and processes surface cache for Lumen. When you had it set to 0 (Uncompressed) it wasn't compressing at all and most likely filling up any available memory - On top of that, your crash referenced AtlasSize, so most likely the atlas was overfilling and tried to allocate more, which if it exceeds 8k - it crashes the game.
AsyncTicks settings is rensposnible for how the engine schedules asynchronous tasks related to ticking. When they are enabled, it allows some tasks to be processed in parallel rather than sequentially, which could improve CPU performance.
Neither of those settings should directly control the quality or visual fidelity, they are mostly performance and stability settings

Okay, that's really good then, if there happens to be any crash - don't hesitate to let me know immediately. We'll make sure to fix it right up. In the meantime I will check out that place myself and figure out why it was crashing with these settigns before
