They will make an option to change between old and new materials, it’s marked as a solution on this post.

You can no longer do this trick, because Roblox has switched the way of fetching textures: instead of fetching from the PlatformContent folder, it will now fetch from the internet. SharkBlox has more info on this: BAD NEW UPDATE! WE CANNOT REMOVE/DELETE TEXTURES ANYMORE!? (ROBLOX) - YouTube

If you look into roblox image files or textures idk what the path to it is, but it should be pretty easy to find and you could save the textures from there.
The fact that it’s now network based excites me! They’re making preparations for this update, and it seems optimized. Hopefully this means an update is coming soon.

Question, is the RobloxStudioBeta testable now? I haven’t tried opening it in a while, if not, why haven’t they fixed it yet? I can’t even try out the textures on my game.
If it works for you, please tell me what you did. I really need this on my game.

I am having problem’s with the new materials, So when I put the materials ready and good, It only changes the terrain materials and not part material’s.

It appears that the stand-alone candidate build is inaccessible currently. At first I thought this was because I was using 1.4 instead of 1.5, but once I downloaded and attempted to open the 1.5 version, the same error of it being “stuck and several weeks out of date” appears still. Is there any way for me (or any other developer) to access the new built-in terrain and part materials? Or do we have to wait for the issue to be resolved?

It seems we have to wait for this feature to be fully released, or await further updates from the team.

I personally don’t think that this feature will make into the game until middle to end of 2022. This is not actually a fact, just an opinion.
I have been incredibly excited for these, and it’s a shame we can’t even have an updated release build.
