Been a while since I mapped so maybe overlooking something.....but I am having issues in radiant with the textures looking all jumpy

Never had this issue before so is there a way to fix it?

I used a regular texture then copied that and set it on top then selected a blend texture and this is what I get

Looks like z-fighting. Sometimes you get that even with blend textures. If the patches are a perfect copy of each other, it should fine in game.

Been playing around and it seems like it only does it when I have adjusted the verts for the terrain.....if I use a flat patch it works perfect

Wasnt sure if I ticked a setting or what but it sure makes it tougher to blend....lol

Yeah, it's probably a good idea to do all of your patch blends last, when you're done shaping and tweaking, and with a copy of the original patch.

I usually do but was trying some things out to see how they looked.

And I fixed the issue.....

Just select both patches and hit Ctrl-G to snap to grid

i was having a similar issue with radiant where i was copying the patch and laying back over for blending

after re-aligning the copied patch didnt sit correctly on the top of the original , the blend patch flickered like you show in your screen shot , like you said , the way to correct this was to select the patches and press ctrl + G to snap to grid

annoying

but this problem only occured when using the space bar to copy

the solution was to select the patch you want to copy and press ctrl + C

the press ctrl + V

(copy an paste)

worked for me and has the added advantage of saving time re-alligning as when pasting the copied patch only the new patch remains selected and ready for blending

means you dont have to re-align , small thing but quicker

hope that helps

The error is caused by irregularity from one patch to the next copied one. You can simply select both patches, hit V, and connect the verts that are conflicting.
