hi all

I have posted this on GitHub but I want to know if it is an isolated problem with me or a general issue.
I cannot change the terrain textures to any custom texture as anyone else got/had this issue?

Ahhh .. I had this issue last week ... I thought it was me saving the texture incorrectly or something .
At the time I thought I will come back to it later .. So I can now confirm it is a bug it seems ..

for anyone else having this issue Preben posted on the GitHub:

ahh i see thats a easy one , the png need to be in 32 bit format , in the code - Decompress/Copy from a 24b to our texture_d 32b will not work.

So just load your png and save as 32 bit."


just tested and can confirm this works saving the .png as 32bit - strange thing is it use to work in the DX9 as 24 bit so it must have changed at some point

DXT1 or DXT5 it might need to be DXT5 seems to be compression causing the issue

Just need to include the alpha channel , did you guys forget that Alpha is used for roughness in PBR terrain, and specular in the old DX9

So if we invert the black and white in the alpha channels it should work better (it won't be perfect but a close approximation without having to go and make a new roughness map)?
