Blender Quixel Bridge how to fix could not send data over port 28888

[@LukeHomay]

Great video! I have a funny problem, though. If I follow these instructions, then I am able to import assets. BUT they come with no textures. I found a fix on REDDIT that says to DELETE that folder in order for the textures to work. So I don't know what to do. I'm just stuck with textureless models. lol

[@VRDivision]

I’m sorry to hear the problem, I’ll pin your comment maybe someone can reply

[@RobertSapolsky-wu3iw]

I installed version 3.2 and it worked

[@byronnell2340]

Fixed it, the textures import wrong,
in the principled bsdf node, turn Alpha to 1 and disconnect the normal map from coat and connect it to the normal(first one you'll see in the bsdf node

[@frostreaper1607]

Thanks !
And for people who are missing the folder of their current blender:
-drag the Blender folder thats inside 'Blender Foundation' to your desktop, then drag it back to where it was
dunno why but for some reason the folder 3.2 was not showing and doing this fixed it. Now you can copy the folder to the wanted place.

[@BlahDepartment]

W video, straight to the point, and fixed the issue 100%, thanks, love from India

[@VRDivision]

thank you brother and good luck with your projects!

[@MoonProds]

Dude I'm so grateful to you THANK YOU! You can tell you made quite a difference judging by the other comments :)

[@VRDivision]

thank you so much man!

[@Myst_Light]

Thank you!!!
I did not really think this would work because this was the first tutorial I found, but this was really explained and it saved my life lol. I liked and subbed!

[@VRDivision]

I'm so glad it worked!

[@ValentinaFilic]

I spent the last three days trying to figure this out when your video popped up. You, sir, are a life-saver. Thank you!

[@VRDivision]

I'm so glad I could help bro!

i was having problems with blender 4.1, and thank you so much for this tut, may god bless you

[@VRDivision]

Glad it helped!

[@chomsky72]

Thanks dude. This fixed the issue. I guess Quixel needs to update its bridge to Blender to not look for Startup folder somehow since the latest versions of Blender don't seem to have it by default.

[@VRDivision]

I agree! It's crazy how many people are having this problem

[@kasztan3279]

Thank you, if someone is wondering this fix will work on 4.2 version :)

[@hannsora]

hi, i have a question
Yes i did follow it and it works with 4.2 version, and unfortunately it has no texture on it, just model
Do you have the same problem ? :(

[@prismaturtle8457]

Still works in 2023, your a life saver man!

[@glennet9613]

And in 2024

[@danmgc]

You did it! This was stopping me from starting on a paid project, so you are my hero today. Thank you!

[@McHox]

still works with 4.2, nice

[@timothyj67]

I still get this error following all the steps. Using blender 3.3

[@VRDivision]

I hope you managed to solve this

[@StormBlessedxo]

I don't understand why that works.. but it did! so far so good thank you!

[@VRDivision]

Glad it helped!

[@hisnameisjoel]

This is the way - even if you have a Startup folder in 3.3 and later, still need to copy the contents over!

[@VRDivision]

Yep!

Wow, It still works with blender 4.1. Many thanks

[@VRDivision]

Great to hear!

[@MathiasZamecki]

it only export materials not the mesh... any ideas how to fix this?

[@ericjeker]

Amazing! Thanks a lot, you just saved me from uninstalling Bridge.

[@Ahtisham]

Thanks a lot man I was looking for a solution but never found one,this was just a simple thing to do and yet no one knew this is what they needed to do and now I guess I will also link this video to people on forums who had this issue. Thanks again.

[@user-rz9ke7di5j]

Update for Mac Users: Just copy the MSPlugin folder from your MegaScans library folder and paste it into the BLender's Contents>Resources>3.6>scripts folder! Thanks!

[@nikhilhira5334]

paste it into Bender's Contents>Resources>3.6>scripts>startup folder

[@VRDivision]

I'm glad this was helpful!

[@kendarr]

Thx, it makes sense, the last oficially supported version of the plugins is 2.93, so it default installs the plugin to that version

[@S3TVproductions]

i don't have MSPlugin in any of the old folders
ahhhhh

[@syarruddin]

me too.. somebody please helpppp

[@joestallingssr]

@@syarruddin Hopes this helps someone - I didn't have this plugin (or a startup folder) either. I just deleted *everything* in the \AppData\Roaming\Blender Foundation\Blender folder and now the export works. Not sure if it was a good idea to do that but at least export is working :)
