Seeing that vertex mismatching is one of the common errors reported from our landscapes, read this and forever avoid this problem occurring again:
When vertex painting with the landscape tool, make sure to save these values to the color presets.
Non-snowy exteriors:
Texture transitions
Roads
121,121,121
Statics
68,61,53
Snowy exteriors:
Texture transitions
147,147,147
Roads
121,121,121
Statics
105,105,105
...kept here for historic reference:
Shamelessly quoted from TF:
A grey shade (121, 121, 121) around texture transitions and roads, a brown greyish shade (68, 61, 53) around statics, although not smeared all over the place. Use it gently.
And by me, for colder stuff:
For snow and statics: Texture transitions 147 147 147, roads 121 121 121 and around statics 105 105 105.
And use it for even the smaller statics, remember a vertex click isn't definite. It can be softened.

best part: that shameless quote from me is a shameless quote from either Sload or you Nemon (I think). I know I am not adept enough at exterior modding to think those up

Yeah, that's what I meant. And it was Nemon who originally said that.Thrignar Fraxix wrote:best part: that shameless quote from me is a shameless quote from either Sload or you Nemon (I think). I know I am not adept enough at exterior modding to think those up
Also, you now have a [/b] at the end of your post Nemon, looking awkward.
