Terrain Texture Limit

Welll, I finally hit it. I remember reading something about 255 texture layers being possible or something like that. I knew that sounded to good to mean it the way I thought. :P

So yea, while working on my environment pack I hit the limit for textures on a terrain. At 31 complete textures, all with diffuse, detail, normal, and parallax, the terrain is still stable. Once you paint the 32nd texture onto the terrain the engine crashes. I also found that if you create a 33rd layer and attempt to paint it, it will only place the diffuse map and that will be unblended. Here is a screenshot to demonstrate that.



Soo, yea.. Looks like keep it at 31 and under.
