[Source]Shadow on displacement

Rektolisk · November 4, 2013 at 9:35 PM

Hey, I have added a displacement to part of my terrain but I have no started to manipulate it yet so the terrain is still flat. I noticed that I get a weird shadow when I point the flashlight at the seam between two displacements:

There are no leaks currently in the level and these two displacements are connected on the grid lines. I am also compiling with everything set to normal and with HDR turned off. Anyone have any suggestions?

Destroy it and make it again ?

Embarrassing to say that for some reason... this did work but I'm still intrigued as to why I got the shadow when the process was the same.

I think you shouldn't have seams? If you select multiple faces you can make a single displacement, out of it(?).

Here suggests to hit "Sew" when displacements don't align.

Dunno if it works only on single brushes or multiple.

turn the brushes on top of it to func_brush, disable shadows. ftw.
