I’ve created a blank blueprint project and I would like to import the new high resolution character model that was implemented in UE4.8, however I can’t find it in the starter pack or the engine content. I would like to use the hi-res version instead of the lo-res version available in the marketplace. I understand that it is present in many starter templates, however I would like to use it in a blank project. How would I go about finding the assets and animations? Thank you.
You can create new project from template and then migrate assets you want to your project. Here is explanation about how to migrate assets between projects: https://docs.unrealengine.com/latest/INT/Engine/Content/Browser/UserGuide/Migrate/index.html
