This method won't work anymore as all epic content are merged into fab.com now. Visit the site and login with epic to claim megascans. Only way to use them seems to be manual download of each asset for now. For those who are having problem below are the steps to follow: 1. Download blender 4 or above. 2. Download quixel bridge. 3. Download blender addon from github. 4. Install the blender addon. 5. Open quixel bridge and in export settings, just click download plugin. 6. Close both blender and quixel bridge (Very Important) 7. Open blender first and go to: file > import > Megascans: Import alembic files. 8. Open quixel bridge and download and export any asset. 9. Asset will appear in blender. Note: Next time when you open blender, you need to click import again. Always open blender first then quixel bridge. Double check the download and export settings for asset and make sure albedo, roughness, normal and any other required texture types are selected.
I have a problem, the Displacement does not get added in the shader for the texture surface, although it fixed the problem of texture not getting added
@@equiaux Yeah. it adds the texture node but does not connects it to displacement. You have to manually add a displacement node and connect height output to it.
If it's not working at all but gives you 'exported successfully' in bridge: Try deleting the old plug-in from quixel. You should find a folder called MSPlugin with a .py script inside. (C:\Users\**name**\AppData\Roaming\Blender Foundation\Blender\4.2\scripts and/ or C:\Users\**name**\AppData\Roaming\Blender Foundation\Blender\4.2\startup) Once you get rid of this, just restart and don't forget to hit import> Megeascans: Import Alembic Files If it's working but no textures: I found with textures set to .exr it doesn't import with them. Switching the bridge export to .jpg or .png fixed that issue. Thank you for this plug-in CG Material - super cool of you to put it out there!
Thank you for helping those who are in need. To be clear, I am not the author of the github code. I was also struggling with the export and i found out about this method.
I did everything as written. But it didn't help me. I get a message about successful import. But nothing happens. I deleted the old plugin. It didn't help.
Man, really thank you, it helped me a lot, i passed months with this issue, having to use blender 3.6 to import stuff then opening in blender 4.0. Worked a lot man
thanks it works for me with blender 4.1, just restart blender,and if you had exported texture from bridge, may be you should assign the textrue manually，it is on the material list
If the texture not automatically applied, try go to "Edit > Preference > Interface > Language" and uncheck the "New Data", this step will disable the translation of the workspace tabs (“Layout” “Modeling” “Engraving” etc.) in the header. Some addons have unknown bug in non-English Languages, and the bridge plugin might be one of them. BTW I'm not a native English speaker, please ignore the bad grammar if it doesn't make sense.🥵
tried this on both 4.1 and 4.2 multiple times and doesnt work. same result. imports mesh but no textures at all. i see the material in the list for it but no textures attached
@@cgmaterial Thank you. After rebooting computer, option "install plugin" appeared again in the bridge. Now model exported but with an empty material, only with a normal map. I did everything according to the pinned comment.

try go to "Edit > Preference > Interface > Language" and uncheck the "New Data" if your interface language not english, and restart blender
@@kazuhiramiller5422 СПСИБО МНЕ ЭТО ПОМОГЛО Я ДОЛГО РЕШАЛ ПРОБЛЕМУ, ЭТО ДЕЙСТВИТЕЛЬНО ПОМОГЛО. моя версия 4.2.1
@@kazuhiramiller5422 Thanks! That solved my problem!!
Thank youuuuuuuuuuu !!!
the textures are not working i tried several methods please help {im using blender 4.1}
Maybe try using blender 4.2 if you haven't already. Also see comment by @jaymzmiller01 below. It might help.
nope, i've done it 7 times and imports are grey texture-less in render view. Blender 4.1
I'm sorry to hear it didn't work. Your only hope might be to wait till quixel updates their official version of addon.
Error
Could not send data over port 28888
Try 28241 for API Port
no...
I tried but it didn't work.
Can you please explain what did not work? I'll list the things you need to do in a pinned comment.
import without textures for me
What blender version are you using? Also read through pinned comment.
@@cgmaterial same, using blender 4.1
My Bridge say "plugin is not installed" but I did everything
Change export target to blender and click install plugin in the export settings.
@@cgmaterial Thank you. After rebooting computer, option "install plugin" appeared again in the bridge. Now model exported but with an empty material, only with a normal map. I did everything according to the pinned comment.
