Asset Naming

Assets are prefixed with a short acronym for their type to make identification outside of Unreal faster:

Type	Prefix	Suffix
Animation	A_
Animation Blueprint	ABP_
Animation Montage	AM_
Aim Offset	AO_
Blueprint	BP_
Data Asset	ClassName(DataAsset)_
Material	M_	#Material Naming

Physical Material	PM_
Skeletal Mesh	SK_
Sound Attenuation	ATT_
Sound Cue	SQ_
Sound Wave	SW_
Static Mesh	SM_

Widget Blueprint	WBP_

• Asset source files such as .psd or .blend should be suffixed with _Src. For example: SM_Prop_House_1stry_01_Src.blend
