i have an important bug to announce, unfortunately all the epic games 'assets' content of the developers can be cloned
 
Well I have this announcement to make, I do not gain anything but the developers will appreciate it.

Epic and asset developers are losing hundreds of thousands of dollars thanks to a bug that I discovered quite some time ago. I had not reported it to Epic but I did so because I saw on a website how they were already earning money with this bug, the website was closed thanks to the help of google and the request of several developers of the epic store that have contacted me, but have begun to come out other web clone publishing epic games assets and even epic is not repaired with a solution.

In the development of Video games are used in most cases assets
these allow you to make an indie and even triple AAA video game with much more ease without having to develop everything from scratch, this is why many developers create these assets to make your life easier when building a video game without spending millions of dollars, in my case I'm developing a shooter with some friends and this benefits me a lot because I do not have to create everything from scratch in the process.

In the development of indie and triple AAA video games are used graphics engines, case unity, cryengine and a very popular Unreal Engine from Epic Games owners Fortnite among others, a few months ago I noticed a bug in the Epic Games Launcher, the bug is embedded in the hashes check of the engine Unreal engine specifically in the Vault Cache which is where everything that has to do with your purchases is stored, this sensitive information is protected to a certain extent, but it can be stolen and posted on the Internet by hackers on certain advertising and leakage sites, a failure so serious that it allows you to become the owner of all the asset content of a real marketplace.

Anyone can have what belongs to you as a developer and publish it anywhere if you access and make use of this bug, so if you are a developer and some malicious software accesses your computer can through a robot look for what you bought and through malicious code extract a very easy way your assets and your information and publish on the site X as if it were yours or original but without your consent, the failure is even more serious because buying games or exclusive in Epic is moderately safe, but as a developer your work has no security, there is no hashes of verification for assets, a finished triple AAA game does have this security, but the possible assets they used to create it can be backup as many times as you want.

It is believed that because of this error developers have let receive for years their respective income, some have even stopped giving support for this failure, which was often believed that people did not buy in the Epic store assets and continuously Epic for days gives free assets to encourage people to know these contents of the developers or for a very low price, but in reality was all content can be downloaded for free, absolutely everything, and this failure has existed for a long time, not how many people are profiting from this but is hurting the developers, what allows the construction of an indie game has security "0", it is as if nobody cares, and in the case of developers sell assets or templates is often their only source of income.

The point is that the games published in the Epic Games Estore are safe to some extent, but in the library of assets and the marketplace of assets has a failure a long time ago, is an incredibly ridiculous failure, a person with little knowledge in programming could solve it, and sadness as Epic has done nothing to solve it because there is almost that since they launched his Launcher, and is that you can have code in your library as if it were yours, as if you had bought it original so you did not buy it, this hurts the developers and benefits the pirates, some community developers have joined to prevent our work is stolen and published on sites that have no scruples.

Example a few days ago, I communicated with a very important developer of epic and talking to him told me that his situation was difficult, and not only the if not other developers, he were being very affected by this issue, with google was able to close one of these important websites that published all the latest developments of assets and templates, I will not give names but has managed to close some of these websites and others are about to close but by the help of google and not Epic, each developer invests years creating a template or asset only for you to have it easier and you can develop your game without spending thousands of dollars on a development, buy a template for a very low price and starting from the start to create.
 
Wow, that sounds like quite a catch indeed! šŸ˜²

I'm sure the developers will appreciate reporting the find so that they don't continue to lose money from others profiting off it. šŸ¤‘
 
It hurts that nobody does anything, I already told Epic Games of the error but they haven't done anything. It's as if the developers don't care about anything.
