Out of curiosity, why is this post being downvoted? It seems like a good thing to me.

MODERATORS
My guess is that it has to deal with the post title:
I typically preserve the orginal source's titles when making posts, so when you read this one it sounds like an ad
So editing the title for certain exceptions might be better as I believe that Mike's (from Gamesfromscratch) intention wasn't about selling Epic's service but to rather help game developers get some free assets to make games with.
P.D. has also received a report (which I've left for my fellow admins/mods to decide) for this post so this is probably the reason for the downvotesπ€·ββοΈπ€
It has massive spam vibes with the click-bait title and link to a YT video IMO, so that's probably why.
Alright, so nothing to do with the assets themselves then. I would be interested in having access to this for some planned experimentation with Godot towards the end of the year, and was wondering if the downvotes had anything to do with some huge red flags here I didn't know about :)
Still can't log in so I can't check but I'm pretty sure this is marketing for the new store. That is ok, I think, depending on how much you're actually dependant on installing their plugins for Blender etc. to downlaod it all (my guess is very). Still looking forward to checking it out and I'm grateful this has been posted here.
Not getting their 2FA emails, so I can't log in π«
2FA? But it said "with one click". So that's not true?
I'm also veeeeeeeeeery interested to see if they actually mean one click = one asset, so it's actually 17.000 or whatever clicks. I'm pretty sure they're not letting you download everything at once. Maybe some datahoarder somehwere is doing the good work of writing a script and the releasing it all on the high seas at once ...

Well, it says it adds it to your account, not downloading it:
I have to wonder if this problem is due to a flood of fellow users signing up for accounts to snag the assets
Either way I'd recommend trying again later as their servers might work better later in the dayπ
Yeah, I waa thinking that as well but still no luck so far ...
The fab.com site isnβt working at all at the time of this post.
