The grass material is very strange at least make the grass decorative option more realistic make it less cartoony
They’ll have to add a carpet and sheets material lol
I mean that’s an option. I would say that changing materials is too frequent, yet simple of a thing to constitute having a new tab/window for it like that. custom materials on the other hand… I personally like having as much screen real estate dedicated to seeing what I’m building, and don’t want yet another window to either leave open like explorer or properties, or one to constantly open and close like the align tool.
I think maybe at most, something similar to the terrain window would work well. Although, I do still stand by my half-life like drop down that would have the materials separated by category.
please someone tell me there is an actual name for menus like this so I stop calling it “Half-Life UI”
You can crank it down to 0.5 or something as always. But haha, metals are supposed to be metallic. I think Roblox did go a bit too far though…
Just wondering when this update will be finalized and implemented into ROBLOX games and Studio.

One thing, could a material requests category be added to feature requests once new materials start being added? It sounds like you want to add materials more consistently after this, and something like that would be great for seeing material suggestions without clogging up engine features.
Edit: Make it a pinned topic in engine features instead, that would be a way better solution.
Well, this topic is quiet, so they’re presumably trying to work out how to fix it. They can’t sweep it under the rug unlike display names, since it’s very major, so something must be done.

I realize that there is a very serious error in the transition of materials in the new update new materials for the terrain.

Apparently its been delayed because they are trying to also give the ability for devs to use the old terrain/textures which in my opinion is not needed. But it is what it is.

I’d like to ask you one question - would you like to see the visual style of millions of games ruined for no good reason?

It’s a good idea for them to make it where you can do that cause on some games it looks good with the old textures but if you wanted you wouldn’t have to remake your game and stuff just for the new ones so i agree with @ittrgrey.

I’ve started receiving this same bug within team create using the beta for a few days now. Team Create places work perfectly fine when accessed through the regular studio, but the beta won’t open them.
allow me to quote that again.
You’re aware I hope that Roblox makes update for us, the developers and not them, the corporation. Their reasoning for what they want (money) does not equate to literal hours of work destroyed. For examples, literally just scroll through this thread and the Oh Yes thread.

When will we be able to create custom terrain materials?
the terrain feature is extremely useful and versatile ,but i hate the fact that im forced to select materials with all the same artstyle, customizability should be expanded for terrain aswell.

Have you ever actually built something? I see the Programmer tag on your profile, and given your responses here, I will assume not. Anyways, for those who spent hours upon hours of work on something to have their work ruined by roblox changing all the materials, ruining those hours of work is quite simply unacceptable, and there is no way around that.
Once again, PLEASE go through these threads and see the work that has been ruined by these materials before responding. Better yet, spend 10 hours building something in the current materials and load it up in the beta, and tell me in all honesty that there is no issue.

As impolite as this is, I feel like I need to point out that you aren’t considering just how many games will actually be visually destroyed by this update, and for lack of a better phrase, I believe that you are ignorant of that.
