🚨 OPPORTUNITY FOR UEFN CREATORS 🚨
We’re exploring a new initiative inspired by Epic’s “The Block” — rotating POIs built exclusively by the UEFN community.
If there’s enough interest, we’ll launch a weekly paid contest where creators submit POIs to be featured in our flagship realistics maps and promote your work!
Comment below if you’re interested 👇

So excited to be working with the incredible people at Future Trash on some insanely cool projects!
Kevin Marciano@kev_marciano
Thrilled to welcome Blair (@purin_dev) to the Future Trash/FOAD team. He's one of the most talented developers we've ever worked with, bringing not just exceptional technical skills, but genuine passion, creative vision, and a collaborative spirit that aligns perfectly with our mission as a game studio.

I think it's in the same place for SAC and Island Creators:
Dashboard > Creator Profile (on the left side menu) > Payments (tab on the top of the page) > Tax Information is the first field and any generated tax form can be viewed by selecting the year from the dropdown menu.
If you declined electronic delivery of the forms during the Tax Profile setup, they mail them instead.
This page has the delivery schedule for the forms and the earnings threshold required before they are generated:

Streamer friends: Does Epic send out a tax form for the SAC payouts? I assume so but couldn’t find it on the dashboard …

Epic's royalty-free tracks they provide for download with this description:
"You can download royalty-free tracks for a Fortnite Creative project. Outside of the tracks available through this link, Epic is not responsible for sourcing and clearing any music you use."

It is extremely exhausting to have to appeal and waste time appealing false moderation.
It is literally a secret code device to grant players rewards, like every other game on Fortnite.
Please hire me @FNCreate to help with Moderation and Discovery, I would delete my creator code in a heartbeat to help.

@Hasmatix @duos_with_dad @FNCreate The system even flags Epic's own music sometimes: forums.unrealengine.com/t/getting-map-…
English
They really need to fix their moderation.
I used music i have creative commons rights to it, the creator said free to use in any project as long as u give attribution. So i did that and filled the attribution list perfectly.
Epic denied it and said : "You probably don't have rights"
The music wasn't that expensive so i bought the standard/paid license.
And they denied it again, I appealed it with proof i paid and its been in review ever since.
I cant even use stuff i literally paid for and have rights to use it.
Epic really needs to fix their moderation.

@AfoveaFN I know this is for an existing project, but: x.com/AfoveaFN/statu…

This is officially my last integrated IP project in UEFN. The dev process is slow and painful enough right now without layering this extra pain and effort. For less of a cut. Which will inevitably go nowhere because the category is a mess. If you see me try show me this tweet

Steam deck purchases, Aggressive Performance will be offering Steam Deck game optimizations in 2026 as well! Gabencube too when that hits

What is a better “investment” for an unreal engine gamedev … with every nvidia video card already… an AMD GPU or a Steam Deck to bench games on ?

All of the entries to the #Fortnite Chapter 7 Build Challenge were SO good! Was so fun seeing people posting creations on this platform again. Go watch the vid: youtube.com/watch?v=AL6tMW… #UEFNC7 #EpicPartner

@hayley_fail @404FNC Yeah, tracks built to fit the Rocket Racing formula of 3 laps in ~3-5 minutes were doomed in Discover. Ballistic also would have benefited from some sort of curated user generated playlist in my opinion.
English
The fact that they let RR die off so quickly is sad. There were creator made tracks (by @404fnc) that players loved. Why not give a set of standards for creators to follow for each rank and let creators make tracks for updates! It's the very least that could be done for RR. 😭

I think people just don’t know how much of a risk Rocket Racing was compared to Lego and festival. Rocket Racing is practically a pioneer in the racing genre, while Lego and Festival pulled established genres like Survival and rhythm games respectively. #FreeRocketRacing

Here's a quick slideshow video of the grayboxing process for my observatory build.
#UEFN #FortniteCreative
English
I tried to use Fortnite assets as much as possible for the build challenge.
The spiral stairs and ramps and a couple of the large curved walls for the driveway ramp were modeled. A few more pieces like some of the ramp/stair walls and the interior doorway to the planetarium were Fortnite meshes that I ported and modified. I highlighted which is which in this image:

I built Griffith Observatory for @MustardPlays #UEFNC7 build challenge. I think this LA landmark would be right at home on the Chapter 7 island. #UEFN #FortniteCreative
English
I did a lot of hunting through the Fortnite assets for textures that were a good match. The grayboxing was all done with Fortnite blockout pieces so I just had to copy/paste the textures onto them.
The domes use a custom material and the lower detail trim on the building is a ported Fortnite asset with a modified texture. This image has it next to the original.
English
For sure, it was for a Fortnite build challenge so I tried to use standard Fortnite assets as much as possible. I did model a few meshes and ported and modified a few others. Here's a image with those highlighted.
The spiral stair and ramp on the other side are similar and the two curved wall pieces that make the interior doorway to the planetarium are also a ported/modified mesh.
