How to Import Unity Assets into Unreal Engine | Don't lose your Unity assets when switching engines

- I was worried that I was going to lose thousands of dollars worth of assets purchased in the Unity Asset Store after my switch to Unreal Engine 5. But fear not! This video will demonstrate the ability to import those assets straight from the Unity Package Manager into Unreal Engine.

Make another video doing it differently. I figured out another way to do it faster.
Do one folder directory in your assets at a time for organization reasons (Synty/PolygonFantasyKingdom/Buildings or /Castle) for example
Highlight all prefabs in Project Asset Folder
Drag and drop into an empty scene's Hierarchy
Highlight all assets in Hierarchy
Right click assets and "Export to FBX"
Create the correct directory for organization and export
It will create ONE file. When you Import to Unreal it separates all the FBX!!!
Delete prefabs in Unity Scene Hierarchy and repeat with the next folder!
Interesting! I'll give it a try
My items are off the center using this method. Did I miss anything?
@@HomemadeKaze no. You didn't do anything wrong. When you exported it sounds like it was parented to another transform.
I have another video that explains how to fix this in Unreal. I'll get the link

thx, u save my time
Awesome tutorial man! Straight to the point and works great. I was even able to import a Skeletal Mesh in a similar way - by exporting the model file itself from within the Unity assets' folder. Thanks you for this!
Yea! You justified the other 30% of the Humble Bundle of assets I bought!
Awesome dude , I am happy about this because I have a ton of Unity assets I want to use in UE5.
Excellent work, extremely helpful. I'll be going through this process tonight and will give you a shoutout!
Thank you! Let me know how it goes
@@IndieScapeGames couldn't get it working in the end as my version of Unity is out of date (I think, it gave me a prerequisite error of some kind), but I managed to get my FBX files across anyway!
@@SongbirdSoundSolutions nice job! A lot of game dev is just trial and error. Nice job figuring it out
Thanks for the information!
THX a lot. U save my time😀
THankssss so much!!!
TKS!
Some amazing assets I paid for in Unity but never got a chance to use. Very happy I'll be able to move them over
Great! Please let me know if you need any help. I'm active in our Discord if you need anything
@@IndieScapeGames Hi, I think the Discord link is expired
@@teik Thanks for heads up! Let's try this one: discord.gg/w9RzBJF9
Great info ty! Is there one for import export models with animations? I saw the selection boxes but a video does more justice lol
I will make one for you! Animations in Unreal is still a it foreign but we can learn together
What assets are you importing into Unreal?
some free 2d assets for my dungeon crawler. I keep getting the no mesh detected error
@thelionszen3352 if you take a screenshot, let me know and I will see if I can help!
All sorts - planets, spaceships, everything for my space 4X.
Just life saving but how do you export animations from unity to unreal
Is the FBX that was exported an animated model or static mesh? I can look into this for sure
Can I do this for MULTIPLE .prefabs at once, because I dont want to go through HUNDREDS of prefabs. It will take hours
Hello, great video! Is there any chance for importing multiple objects with the correct pivot point? I imported more objects at the same time and all of them had the same pivot point. I don't want to export over 2000 assets one by one :D
I will need to look into this! It may be setting on the export
Trying to Import some 2D sprites over from Unity but instead of bringing up the FBX import options it just says "failed to import No Mesh is found or animation track" . Is the way to import 2D assets different?
2d will probably be different.
I'm not well versed in 2D but can try to help out. Join our discord and show me what you are working with
What if there is no "Demo scene" only model/anim/marterials folders? I don't have the export FBX option then..
Did you import the FBX Exporter in Unity's Package Manager?
@@IndieScapeGames Hi and yes. So I see the option to export FBX as you demonstrated however only on assets that have demo scenes like in your video. I have other assets that do not have a "demo scene" in their file. So if I just try to export a model lets say, with export FBX, I do not have that option in the drop down as shown in the video. So to be more clear, is there another way using the FBX exporter on assets that do not have a demo scene? Thank you!
@@IndieScapeGames Okay nevermind, apparently now it gives me the option which is fantastic thank you! I do have a small problem, I was able to drag in the textures but the one base texture will not import into UE for some reason. Is there another way or something that I should of checked off? Thank you
@@wesuckatgaming3874 no I've noticed that big as well. I can look into it more and see if I can find anything. Glad to be of some help though! Good luck
@@IndieScapeGames Thank you!
how can i export a terrain?
I will look into that! If so, I do think Unreal won't recognize it as a terrain. So sculpting and painting in Unreal on the exported object wouldn't work correctly.
how about VFX? I feel like this is something that cant be imported.
Is there anyway I can transfer my level/terrain from unity to unreal?
I do believe you may be able to export a terrain from Unity as an FBX, but foliage, trees, and detail meshes will not be included!
Embed textures is not popping up for me
Are you still having issues? Let me know what version of Unity you are using
