Seams Visible With Custom Texture

Greetings,

I am currently experiencing a perplexing issue while working on a mesh in Blender, and I seek guidance to ascertain whether this is a software glitch or a potential oversight on my part.

To provide some context:

  1. I have been engaged in texture painting on a mesh in Blender.
  2. Following this, I proceeded with exporting both the mesh and its corresponding texture map.

However, upon applying the texture to the map, an anomaly has been detected:

  • From a specific distance, a distinct seam becomes apparent on the texture. A visual representation of this is provided here:

  • Contrarily, when the camera is zoomed in closely to the mesh, the seam vanishes. This can be observed in the subsequent image:

  • Texture Paint in Blender

  • Wireframe View:

Steps I took on blender

  • Smart UV project > Set Island Margin

  • Base Color

For further troubleshooting, I have ensured that no vertices are colliding or merging with each other.

Could anyone shed light on the potential cause of this issue? Is it a potential bug or might it relate to specific setup configurations?

Roblox usually downscales textures. It might have caused visual artifacts.

To avoid this, try drawing the texture slightly over the UV maps.

Due to making it a gradient I can’t manually extend the overlap to the seams itself due to color changes and matching with the gradient. I tried another way where I created a seam in the middle of the mesh and instead of the Smart Uv project I utilized Wrap but there Still was a seam visible.

Thanks to the suggestion from @IcyMonstrosity the issue can be resolved by increasing the “Bleed” value in Texture Paint Options. By doing so, no seams will be visible.

Step-by-Step Guide:
Under the Texture Paint Options > Bleed

  1. Navigate to Texture Paint Options.
  2. Locate the Bleed setting.
