Terrain Painter Issue

by Ratzschaaf · in Technical Issues · 01/20/2010 (9:07 pm) · 4 replies

Hi. I've got a problem:

I can not use more than 31 different terrain textures. I can create the terrain materials as different layers and load them into the Terrain Painter Material Selector, but when I start painting on a terrain with the 32th material I loaded into the Terrain Painter Material Selector, the world editor always crashes. I am using T3D 1.1 alpha and use dds-materials with MIP-Maps for my terrain materials.

I need to use more than just 31 Textures for my game. Is this a known bug? Can somebody help me?

    Anybody with the same problem?

    I tested this on different PCs and also with a new project.
    I always got the same failure. When I try to paint the terrain with a 32nd brush, the World Editor crashes.. :-(

    This is a known issue. See this thread:

    I guess it was never addressed, not too many people need more than 31.

    Apparently still an issue in 1.1alpha - let's see what beta brings!

    32 terrain textures is a lot
