hi,

When i use paint alpha in the displacement tool menu with some textures, i get the error of invalid material type grass 04 for example.

But... the texture comes out good and yes i do use textures with the blend option in the name

Is there anyway to get rid of this error or should i just leave it since it doesn't seem ot affect my map in any way?

Bringing up an old post. When using alpha painting for me I get an error and it says it can't find the texture. And then it doesn't create any blending at all... just makes everything 1 texture

First of all, I assume you are using a texture with blend in the name?
Secondly, have you tried different blend textures? Some people have
said in the past that certain blend textures don't work properly, so I
guess you should try a few others and see if it happens with all of
them.

Yes I am using blend textures. Also there are no other blend textures I can really use for this as I am creating a beach that goes into land, and there is only 1 sand to grass texture.

Maybe if I can get a custom texture
