Hello! I have unreal engine ver 4.24.3
I have installed the Omniverse Create ver 2021.1
I have also installed Omniverse Unreal Engine connector for UE 4.24 ver 101.1
Now I follow this video tutorial:
When I press Omniverse/Add Server I get error:
Omniverse Server pekan-servo failed to connect.
I have all programs running. What might this be?
I do not get the folders automatically created as in the video.
I also think this might be the reason. In my UE content browser inside the folder “Omniverse” I do not see the sub-folder localhost. So could not create my server to there…
I wonder why I do not have that folder there?
Yours,
Pekka
I also tried the same with UE 4.25 and Omniverse Connector 4.25
The same error:
Please help if anyone can?
Pekko, I assume you are using the local Nucleus server, or “Collaboration Service”. In the “Add a server” dialog, try putting the text: “localhost”. You should also be able to access your local Nucleus server from your browser (assuming you installed the Collaboration service from the Omniverse Launcher) from this URL: http://localhost:8080/
In the next hotfix, coming within the next few weeks, I have autofilled in the string “localhost” to relieve confusion around this issue. You’re not the first person to have this struggle.
Thanks or the answer Lou!
Yes, I use the Nucleus Collaboration Service. Here:
But in my UE editor 4.25 I see only this when I hover over the Omniverse icon:
KInda empty…
But hey anyway your trick worked out man! Yes.
It connected to Nucleus, asked my login details too :)
And now it looks like the tutorial video I am following. Great!

Now as this connection works, I see that the thumbnails for my assets are not created in Omniverse Create.
But in the Omniverse/localhost/NVIDIA/Samples/Marbles/assets/standalone/RT_elevator/
They are visible, mostly:
Why is this?
@pekka.varis - Thumbnail generation is a preference setting.
Edit->Preferences. Look for this:
Thank you Mirice! I ticked the option you showed. Then I greated a new project and dropped in some USD objects. But no new thumbnails appeared…
Except for the Project itself:
But the asset folders for the assets ( imported UE project with Omniverse Connector 4.25 ) are still not created:

Hey, I got an error while saving my scene:
Maybe this is the reason I cannot see my assets thumbnails ?
