About that…

Although it is possible to change the terrain’s texture to Roblox’s material textures, I don’t think it’s currently possible to change its texture into a custom one.

The only way to make a custom textured terrain is to make it as a mesh on Blender or other applications.

I don’t know why I didn’t think of making a terrain mesh in blender with custom textures. You are very creative!

Thanks a lot I appreciate the help, take care. :slight_smile:

Technically, it is possible through changing the Roblox Studio files, but players won’t see it in-game and it’s a bit hacky. :sob:

Yeah, through the material manager next to the Part option in the Model Tab!

First, you must open the material manager,

create a custom material variant

then assign the base material to the material variant of the terrain you want to replace,

Now, scroll down to the very bottom and enable “Set as Override.”

Then boom! Terrain changed!

This topic was made before material manager was added. Sorry but there wasn’t a way back then.

Ohhh, I see! Figured I’d still share to help out since there aren’t any other main page ones that talk about this method!
