# \[UE4] Asset Displaying Wrong
## Mesh Distance Fields not Enabled
#### A lot of our assets use Distance Fields for their materials, which UE4 has disabled by default.
You can easily enable it by going to your project settings and searching for "Generate Distance Fields" then enabling the checkbox "Generate Mesh Distance Fields"
An engine restart is required.
{% hint style="warning" %}
**In some cases, even with Mesh Distance Fields enabled they still do not get generated. A common issue is because there isn't at least 1 static mesh in the scene. You can fix this by simply dropping a cube somewhere within your scene.**
{% endhint %}
{% hint style="warning" %}
**Another reason could be that you have set your engine scalability "Shadows" setting to medium or lower. Distance Fields require at least High "Shadows" setting to generate.**
{% endhint %}

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:
```
GET https://docs.shadersource.io/faq-answers/asset-displaying-wrong.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
