@HaroldAtEpic @JohnnyBluePrint @ImmatureGamer For a brand new maps first test window whats the single metric you weight most heavily to decide whether to keep letting it reappear in the new tab is it D1 retention, minutes per player, or bounce rate in the first 5~ minutes?

@JohnnyBluePrint @ImmatureGamer Our goal is to improve messaging so you know if it's impacting your visibility.

🚨 Epic says thumbnails are becoming a bigger Discover signal. In Epic's updated Discover documentation, they state that thumbnail best practices will have an even greater impact on island visibility starting in June 2026. Some of the thumbnail guidelines Epic highlights: • Accurately represent your gameplay • Be unique and original • Avoid misleading players • Follow Fortnite's content guidelines • Focus on clear visual communication Worth keeping an eye on.

@GhostOnUEFN Sent you a dm!

📌Client Work - Sniper Project [Part 6] 📢Even the smaller details got the same treatment. 🛠️XP reward displays rebuilt with proper pedestals, size labels added so players immediately understand the tier system, and the whole area feels intentional now instead of just functional. 🔍Need project work done? ✅Commissions open, DM today!📩 #UEFN #Fortnite #FortniteCreative

@fhrcreate @FNCreate Ahh makes sense! Are you by chance selling it?

@Zwaaikip @FNCreate yes

Quick sneak of what we are working on🦸 #eufn #verse @FNCreate

@fhrcreate @FNCreate Ohhhh looks sick did you make it or?

@Zwaaikip @FNCreate It's with fx niagara 🤗

@kalinowskyyy This better be permanent can you keep us up to date how it goes in the coming days / hours :D?

🔵❤️ NEW & UPDATED IN DISCOVERY ARE FIXED! Epic adressed the "10min" issues with "New" & "Updated" categories. Maps appear to have around 40-90 minutes of testing, confirming the previous rollout was an issue. Maps gain more impressions with more testing CCU! #UEFN #FNCreate

@RabiesFPS @FNCreate Ragebait?

@FNCreate Thank you fortnite I love you, I love you very much ❤️

We've updated our ‘How Discover Works’ documentation to reflect the recent changes to Discover. It covers how islands are evaluated, key metrics, thumbnail best practices, and where your island can appear. Read it here: fn.gg/fortnite-disco…

@AstralFCT @FNCreate I dont think they wanna listen to us

@FNCreate So when can we expect new changes? Alot of people in the community are not happy with the current state of discovery.

@RabiesFPS @FNCreate Currently the only way is by viewing the API / looking at fortnite .gg or other sites

@FNCreate Quick question. This new doc says average playtime and QPTR but we are not able to view those metrics. We used to be able to see average playtime until the old analytics tab was disabled. How are we supposed to know these metrics for our islands?

@FNCreate Are there any plans to improve the discoverability of new islands, such as adding 'Trending' or 'Top Rated' tabs since currently it is very hard for new islands to reach the top of discovery?

@kalinowskyyy @fn360gg At this point they must be rage baiting us

‼️ HOMEBAR AND DISCOVERY BUGGED ‼️ A brand new map with 6 minutes playtime just got into Homebar. No testing, no metrics. And homebar? Look: 1149-6003-9524 Fortnite, this mess needs to be fixed ASAP. #Fortnite #FNCreate #UEFN

@MisterX_fn @FNCreate Back in 2025 start / mid

@MisterX_fn @FNCreate Wasnt this how the old discovery sort of worked?

What do you guys think about this Discover Idea? If your Stats are the best out of New or Updated you move to "Best Newcomer"-> if your Stats are the best there you move to "Trending Now" A clear path to the top for every creator who puts in the effort @FNCreate #uefn

@MisterX_fn @FNCreate We arent in version 40.30 yet still 40.20, so next update.

@GabzinMaps @tomjank Maybe try almond water is a pretty popular option.

@tomjank Yes, I thought about putting food or some kind of bandaid in it, but I couldn't find any really good models. Thanks for the help though, I'll see what I can do!

gente, reprovaram meu mapa por ter um zumbi nele e por ter referencia a drogas (?) é apenas como se fosse um remedio de sanidade, varios mapas tem modelos de pilulas e remedios

@most3r__ @MinebloFN Scammers could make multiple accounts spend 1k Each and have again a free pass but I dont think that will work. Since they will get banned after 1 day of beeing in the row and I just dont think that is worth it.

@MinebloFN but...

W change, now campaigns will charge at certain thresholds instead of only at the end. Putting an end hopefully to people using fake cards to fill the sponsored row and not paying up.

@ImmatureGamer What does this mean? Does it charge you while ur in the row or can you only put a budget of 50 - 100 - 150 etc?

🚨 Sponsored Row Update: Billing thresholds are rolling out. Payments now charge incrementally starting at $50 until you pass $1,000 lifetime spend.

@ImmatureGamer what time does it go live?

Today (March 11) Epic’s new Developer Rule 1.9.1 goes live. No more spam islands. Publishing multiple copies of the same island or metadata to manipulate Discover can now result in: • Monetization penalties • Island removal • Account suspension Epic also said automated tooling is coming soon to stop these from being published in the first place.

@duos_with_dad Does this improve performance alot and are there any other tricks to improve performance like this one?

Here’s a quick clip showing how to convert identical meshes into an Instanced Static Mesh (ISM). 1️⃣ Select all identical meshes (same mesh + material) 2️⃣ Open Modeling Tools → XForm 3️⃣ Click Harvest Instances 4️⃣ Set Component Type to Non-Hierarchical (ISM) 5️⃣ Name the actor and Accept You’ve now converted all those meshes into a single actor. If the material looks broken, open the material and enable “Used with Instanced Static Meshes” in the usage flags. This is just the beginning of the ISM optimization rabbit hole, have fun! @FNCreate
