Troubleshooting Help
I can't sign into KitBash3D.com
Why am I instructed to reset my KitBash3D account password when I try to sign in?
We made some big changes to our website when we introduced our new asset browser, Cargo.
If it's the first time you're signing into your KitBash3D account since we launched Cargo, you will need to verify your email and update your password. This is a one-time requirement due to the recent updates on the website.
I didn't receive a verification code or password reset code email
If you're not seeing the verification code or password reset code email in your inbox, please check your Spam, Promotions and Updates sections. The email will be from info@kitbash3d.com, subject line: Your Cargo Password Reset Code.
Keep in mind that if you have requested multiple password reset codes concurrently, only the code within the most recent time stamped email will be valid.

I can't sign into Cargo
Cargo Sign-In Page is Unresponsive
If you are experiencing any of the issues listed below, this could be an issue related to your VPN, network security, or firewall settings or if you're using an outdated version of Cargo.
First, ensure that you're using the most up to date version of Cargo. The version is shown in the top left of the Cargo application.
View our Cargo change log here, or simply download the latest version from the top right corner of KitBash3D.com.
If you're on the latest version of Cargo and are still facing a non-responsive Cargo sign-in screen, follow the steps in our Troubleshooting Cargo Installation and Download issues guide.
Signs of a Network Security or Firewall Issue

Windows Defender
Since most Windows OS devices come with Defender, please check the permissions settings in Defender if you're experiencing an unresponsive Cargo sign in screen.

Check whether you are currently connected to "Private networks" or "Guest or public networks"
Click on "Advanced settings" in the left-hand menu
Check whether Outbound connections are currently allowed for the type of network you're currently on (Private or Guest/Public)
If needed, change that setting by clicking on Windows Defender Firewall Properties and changing "Block" to "Allow (default)" for Outbound connections, then click Apply
