in progress

May 19, 2023 is when i added this initially how could it take this long to add this feature ??? I didnt even realize it was that long almost a full year to add the 1 feature everyone needed
Virtual Filmer
Glenn Grillo The issue is, clearly, that they want to keep their CARGO product separate from the kit purchases. Introducing a "one click download" or multi-click download option would make it easier for people to download entire kits quickly. That would make "churn" (people unsubscribing) worse. I think the CARGO product will always have barriers to stop people downloading entire kits quickly for this reason.

Virtual Filmer oh i know that, thats whats pissing me off and i will never renew my subscription again , it wastes so much of my time and hundreds if not thousands of extra clicks that are a waste of my life
Virtual Filmer
Glenn Grillo Do the kits have example maps too? I think they might. What I mean is, cargo only has the individual assets. But I think the kits have full example scenes as well. So maybe kits are the best option, and Cargo is a (literal) waste of time for many of us. I'm finding that the huge amount of time to transfer plus the 'empty looking building' issue is making me realize I've wasted about a week in total of billable time LOL.

Virtual Filmer this is another ridiculous lack , no sample maps , they paybsome artist to make those images but then dont give itnto u like every unreal marketplace content does , they give u a map with all the pieces but they are all seperate buildings , so ridiculous , they get am amazing thing made then dont pass onto users , even simple groupings would be great but nothing

1 click downloads of kits

I've been waiting 5 months for a 1 click solution for downloading a kit - why do i have to click hundreds of times to download stuff - its such a waste of my life - AND ur suppose to wait till its fully downloaded or it might cause problems - in that way its gonna take hours to download one kit . I can only assume u want to waste peoples time so they cannot get all your kits fast - cuz it is significantly faster to buy the kit and get it into Unreal like 10x faster - how is this still a reality ?

Hey Glenn Grillo
next update will see us introducing a download queue - to smooth out downloading of multiple assets. That'll release with the next update, it's in testing phase right now.
we also have multi-import planned which would effectively allow you to 1-click download/import an entire kit.

Download multiple models at once in Cargo

It's very time consuming to download 1 model at a time. Additionally, unlike download, importing does not queue up properly. If Unity is busy importing another Cargo model, it silently fails the queued up import. Strangely, if Unity is busy with other stuff like Importing from Quixel Bridge, updating materials, or whatever, the Cargo import will wait until it can import and then work. It only fails with multiple Cargo imports.

Hi Vlad Enache, Thank you for leaving the detailed feedback of what happens when you import multiple assets at once.
At the moment, Cargo is not setup for bulk imports but our team is working on the functionality for an upcoming release. We know that the current state of the import button appears as if you can queue up multiple assets but it's not quite ready on the backend. Stay tuned to our next few Cargo releases for this feature.

I assumed this ability was one the the basic features of Cargo. I have spent days trying to figure out how to do it in Cargo. Searched how to do it, found out you cant. I never even assumed that this wasn't an option...LOL Glad it wasn't me.

Steven M. Hurd Hi Steven! We're currently in the exploratory phases of this project - I'm specifically curious, what did you try to do when you attempted to download multiple assets?

yes downloading entire kits and importing with 1 click with nothing coming up so i can go away and let it do it - it really seems like with the way it is that you are intentionally slowing down the process so people cannot
get everything they need quickly - i should be able to just have 1 click solutions for everything and in a way i can leave my computer and let it do it - not sit there and have to wait every 5 min to click something - i takes hours to get 1 pack in - thats an insane amount of wasted time - hundreds of dollars of my time to do something that should be incredibly easy

Glenn Grillo: i hope it isnt intentional... the fact that this ticket hasnt even been put in progress is concerning, though.

Agree. Make it easier to download full kits as well as individual assets. The current workflow is broken and not user friendly.
