[Question] Picking the right terrain?

Post by ZZEZ »

I'm curious, how do you guys pick the terrain that will fit your undergrowth/overgrowth?is there some kind of tool that tells you which terrain texture/colors would fit best?
I'm having a hard time picking the right texture for the job

Heres a picture of my issue, I'm happy with my trees/grass but the terrain texture completely doesnt fit and I have no idea what to change it to.

Its pretty green to me, what color do you see?I'm seeing bright-green texture and it doesnt fit the surrounding.
Did I mention I'm partly color-blind? :-(

I don't mean this in a bad way, but I have to ask now that I know. Is the undergrowth black for a reason? lol again, no offence intended :P

The undergrowth is pitch black because you haven't run lightmaps yet. Once you run lightmaps it'll appear as normal. Tweak your lighting settings as well as your texture choices till you have what you want for the map :)
