Are there any plans to allow the grass decoration to be applied over multiple terrain textures? now that there are overrides? would be great to be able to have different colored grass for separate biomes/areas.

Are there any plans to make custom terrain materials recolorable? EX: colored terrain (it just goes to the uncolored texture) vs colored parts… both using the same materialservice texture & color in their properties…

Can someone tell me why this looks so bad and how to fix it?

Here are the badlands with the default terrain.

Obviously, it looks horrible. Other than the color my custom texture doesn’t have a separate texture for the “wall part” terrain, which is one reason why it looks so bad. How can I make the texture look good?

Great. Material Service for terrain is now taken back out again :frowning_face:

Sorry, sorry. I realized that I didnt have a setting enabled in the beta features in studio, the terrain editing is fine.

Do we have an estimated time for when this will be supported in actual games? Can’t wait to see the builds that can be accomplished when this is released to the public.
