Foliage brush does not appear when viewport is in Unlit mode. Although it does its job.

Hi Satheesh,

We have reproduced this behavior and logged a report. Interestingly the brush is not invisible in all maps while Unlit. For instance its appears in such projects as ShooterGame and PlatformerGame, but I have identified that it does not appear in the template projects.

Thanks for bringing this to our attention.

Hi Satheesh,

This is an issue we were aware of in the past (it may have made it into Rocket Beta 3), but this is believed to have been fixed a few months ago. This is possible it is just another config file issue you are experiencing.

While experiencing the issue, try clicking on the Show menu in the Viewport, and choosing Use Defaults. I experienced a similar (but opposite) issue and this was the solution for me.

Let us know your results.

Cheers!

Choosing Use Defaults changes my view mode to Lit. Pardon me but i dont understand why i had to choose Use Defaults option when i can choose Lit from the view mode list itself.

I understand that Use Defaults changes to Lit, but it also resets all view settings. Did it correct the issue for you once you set the view option back to Unlit?

I was experiencing a similar issue, and Use Defaults corrected the issue for me. This was most likely due to overwriting an error in the config files with the default settings.

Please let us know if the issue is fixed or if it is still occurring for you.

Thanks.

Issue is still not fixed. I chose Use Defaults and then selected Unlit. Foliage Brush still dont show up.

Please try the direct approach to reset your config files:

  1. Close the Editor
  2. In Windows Explorer, go to your project’s folder: myProject/Saved/Config/Windows
  3. Rename that Windows folder to something else if you want to save backups
  4. OR just delete all of the .ini files inside
  5. Restart the editor and load your project

The .ini files and/or the Windows folder will be regenerated. Please let me know if this resolves the issue.

Thanks
