What to check before you grab or buy

License tier. Fab sells Personal and Professional licenses; confirm which one a free or discounted item grants before using it commercially.
Engine version. Check the supported UE versions on the listing. Packs that stop at an old version may need fixes after migrating.
Real screenshots vs. renders. Look for in-engine screenshots or a video, not only offline renders. Ask whether the scene in the shots is included.
Technical details. Poly counts, texture resolution, LODs, Nanite support, collision and whether materials are instanced. Missing details is a yellow flag.
Seller history. A seller with several coherent packs and a changelog is lower risk than a brand-new account with hundreds of near-identical listings.

Only verified items are listed. Prices, ratings, engine versions and AI status are shown only once verified. Category labels are ours.
