Ah I see, now I understand better, thanks @PeZsmistic for clarifying. Noted for the request to customize side/bottom layers of terrain materials.
This is probably solved down the road with adding new materials, but I don’t remember if this was something Roblox wanted to do.
Yes we will be adding new materials as part of Material Library Expansion.
How do we get this global wind feature you’re speaking of, it sounds very cool and very interesting or is this not a feature that is currently beta but works with studio mods?
I’m glad that Roblox has listened to the community and managed to add proper tiling for custom materials.
I hope this isn’t too much to ask, but PLEASE let us add different textures on certain sides of a part. If they don’t plan to add this, I hope it’ll be added in with per-part material customization as previously stated in the post. It would give us so much more freedom with materials.
there’s a reason why custom materials are not published in-game yet. Roblox is finding a way to make it more performance-friendly.
Yes i hope they add something like this, would help me to avoid the problem of the limit of the textures,
I’m not sure if material is the answer here since a material is generally meant to apply to an entire surface, not to individual faces.
This use case might be better solved with MeshParts, and then requesting a feature where you can tile the texture over the surface of each face. The texture face would show more studs as the size of the MeshPart grows. That way you can also have that kind of flexibility for objects that don’t have strictly 6 faces.
why can’t we replace surface appearances by fusing the properties of surface appearances with those of texture and mesh, here’s an example for clarification:
For meshes:
for textures:
If they added this in roblox tere will be no need for surface apperances and we will have the ability to change the tiling, transperency and on wich side of a part it shows up.
yes i hope they add this feature
Yes, you are right about not being able to exactly match parts to terrain for the base materials. There’s always the UGC route if this doesn’t work.
Internally, we have some ideas surrounding colorization scheme but we are currently prioritizing on completing what has been outlined here (ugc part/terrain, material upgrade, expansion, etc). One step at a time 
Totally understand, been there before with Jailbreak update content. I appreciate what you guys are doing, and I appreciate the responses!
I dug around a bit and couldn’t find a precise answer. The general one I received is what’s in the original post. Sorry about that.
Hey, I’m facing issues with uploading the requisite maps to there assigned spot.
Are there any plans to add the ability to create your own decorations. It would be great to be able to add your own textures to the grass, as well as adjust the height, width, density.
I was also very tormented by one question. Will the terrain grid be changed? I mean, will it be more detailed.
As you can see here, it is possible to create a very small footprint
At the same time on roblox it looks like this:
The first tower is what having no blending between terrain materials will look like.
The second tower is what the default terrain material looks like with blending.
I wanted to ask if there any plans to add any form of blending that will allow us to define how much or how the material will blend with other materials? Maybe something like a blending value that determines how much the material will blend with others. -1 would be the second material blending into the first material, 0 being no blending at all and 1 would have the first material blending in the second material. With -1 being like a reversed blend and 1 being the normal blend.
Could you share more info/screenshots?
Appreciate the feedback, and we’re aware of these requests. Right now, I have nothing I can share about these.
Right now we’re not focused on allowing more customization of this behavior. Our focus is on shipping useful UGC materials + an upgraded and expanded set of materials.
Yo guys! What paint software do I need to have to do my own textures? like rolling thunder can do.
through some playing around, I figured this could be used as some kind of low-poly terrain creator
Literally my favorite part about this update, the fact we don’t even need to use materials for terrain. Really hope they give us the ability to change the waters material as well or a lot of people are gonna continue resorting to creating our own water systems
