Auto fix Guide

Auto-fix Guide

Some violations can be fixed automatically with a single click. Others require manual work — usually because the fix would be destructive or ambiguous.

Warning: Auto-fix operations are irreversible without source control. Always check out files in Perforce or commit in Git before running fixes on a large batch.

What gets fixed automatically

Apply a fix from the panel Fix button, or right-click the asset in the Content Browser and choose Fix.

Naming — renames

These fixes rename the asset in place. A redirector is created at the old path automatically by the engine.

Rule	What the fix does
missing_prefix	Adds the correct prefix. Example: MyTexture → T_MyTexture. If the name would collide with an existing asset, a numeric suffix is appended.
duplicate_prefix	Removes the extra prefix. Example: BP_BP_MyActor → BP_MyActor.
missing_suffix	Appends the required suffix. Example: SC_Ambient (SoundConcurrency) → SC_Ambient_SC.
missing_allowed_suffix	Appends the first allowed suffix for the class. Example for World assets: L_Town → L_Town_P.
wrong_case	Capitalizes the first letter of each name segment after the prefix. Example: T_cross_fire → T_Cross_Fire.
junk_name	Strips the junk word and applies the correct prefix to what remains. Only fixes when a meaningful name part exists after the junk word. Example: New_BossEnemy → BP_BossEnemy.

Folder — move

Rule	What the fix does
wrong_folder	Moves the asset to the best matching allowed folder under the current scan root. Example: a Material in /Game/Characters/ moves to /Game/Materials/. Creates redirectors at the old path.

Texture — property edits

These fixes modify texture import settings directly. The asset is saved after the change.

Rule	What the fix does
texture_wrong_srgb	Sets the sRGB flag to the correct value for the detected texture type (on for color, off for data).
texture_wrong_compression	Sets CompressionSettings to the expected value for the texture type (e.g. TC_NormalMap for _N textures).
texture_wrong_group	Sets LODGroup to the expected LOD group for the texture type (e.g. TEXTUREGROUP_UI for _UI textures).

Mesh — property edit

Rule	What the fix does
mesh_nanite_policy	Enables or disables Nanite on the mesh according to the configured NanitePolicy. Saves the asset.

Asset Health

Rule	What the fix does
stale_redirector	Runs UE's Fix Up Redirectors on the redirector asset — same as right-clicking it in the Content Browser and choosing Fix Up Redirectors. Deletes the redirector and updates all references to point to the new path.

Blueprint variable renames

Three Blueprint rules support auto-fix via variable rename:

Rule	What the fix does
bp_bool_no_prefix	Adds b prefix to the boolean variable name. Example: IsAlive → bIsAlive.
bp_bool_is_pattern	Removes the redundant verb prefix. Example: bIsDead → bDead.
bp_var_not_pascal_case	Capitalizes the first letter of the variable name. Example: health → Health.

Warning: Blueprint variable renames update all references within the same Blueprint. References from other Blueprints or C++ are not automatically updated — check and fix those manually.

Batch Fix

Instead of fixing assets one by one, Batch Fix lets you apply an auto-fix to all visible results of a single rule at once.

Note: Batch Fix is available in both versions. In the demo it is limited to 5 uses per session.

When it activates

The Fix All button in the panel toolbar becomes active when:

• All visible (filtered) results share exactly one Rule ID
• At least 2 of those results are auto-fixable

Use the rule filter dropdown to narrow results to a single rule, then click Fix All.

Conflict detection

Before the dialog opens, ASV scans for potential conflicts and marks affected rows:

• Name collision — an asset with the target name already exists at the destination path
• Path collision — for move operations, an asset already exists at the destination folder
• Unsaved changes — the asset package has unsaved edits (save first)

Conflict rows are highlighted in orange, their checkbox is disabled, and hovering shows the reason. The check repeats immediately before execution — so conflicts that appear while the dialog is open are caught.

Dialog

The Batch Fix dialog shows all selected assets in a scrollable list:

• Results grouped by folder — each folder header is collapsible
• Per-row: checkbox · status icon · asset name (hover for full path) · current value · proposed value
• Search field to filter rows by asset name
• Select All / Deselect All buttons above the list
• Fix Selected is disabled when no rows are checked

Progress and result

Fixes apply one per frame. Each row updates its icon in real time (✓ = fixed, ✗ = failed). The button label tracks progress: Fixing… 12 / 47.

When complete, a summary appears inline (Fixed 44 / 47 — 3 skipped) and a toast notification is shown. The panel refreshes automatically after the dialog closes.

Undo

Undo behavior depends on the type of fix:

• Property fixes (texture sRGB, compression, LOD group, Blueprint variable renames) — wrapped in a single UE transaction. Press Ctrl+Z once to undo the entire batch.
• Rename and move fixes — disk operations. Not undoable via Ctrl+Z. The engine creates a redirector at the old path, but the rename itself cannot be rolled back. Check out files in source control before running these.

Demo cap — 200 assets per operation

In the demo version, Batch Fix is limited to 200 assets per operation. If more than 200 fixable results are visible, Fix All will apply to the first 200 and show the remaining count in the tooltip. The full version has no per-operation cap.

What requires manual fixing

Rule	Why no auto-fix	How to fix
name_pattern_mismatch	The correct name is ambiguous — tool can't know what you intended	Rename in Content Browser
non_ascii_name	Transliteration is locale-dependent	Rename to an ASCII name
folder_contains_unicode	Same — folder rename affects many assets	Rename folder
folder_not_pascal_case	Same	Rename folder
folder_disallowed_name	Correct target folder depends on project structure	Rename/reorganize folder
folder_in_developers	Decision where to move it requires human judgement	Move asset to production folder
texture_not_power_of_two	Requires reimport from source at correct size	Reimport texture at power-of-two dimensions
texture_exceeds_max_size	Requires reimport or texture editor change	Reduce texture dimensions in the source and reimport
bp_editable_missing_tooltip	A meaningful tooltip can't be generated	Add tooltip in Blueprint variable details
bp_editable_missing_range	Valid range depends on game logic	Set ClampMin/ClampMax in variable metadata
bp_var_config_flag	Removing Config may break runtime behavior	Remove Config flag from variable properties
bp_vars_uncategorized	Categories are project-specific	Add categories to editable variables in Blueprint
bp_var_atomic_type_name	New name depends on variable meaning	Rename variable (e.g. ScoreFloat → Score)
bp_var_redundant_context	Which part of the name to remove depends on intent	Rename variable to remove class context
var_array_not_plural	Pluralization rules are language-specific	Rename array variable to plural form
var_missing_type_name	Correct type suffix depends on variable purpose	Rename variable to include type (e.g. HitResult)
blueprint_compile_error	Error must be understood and fixed in Blueprint editor	Open Blueprint, fix compilation errors, save
blueprint_compile_warning	Warning must be reviewed in Blueprint editor — often a deprecated node	Open Blueprint, review compile warnings, save
mesh_no_collision	Collision type and shape depend on gameplay use	Add collision in Static Mesh Editor
mesh_no_lods	LOD settings depend on performance budget	Set up LODs in Static Mesh Editor or via auto-LOD
