How do you get paint to be visible in preview?

Hi - I’m following all the instructions as to how to paint meshes however when I come to preview, everything is in grayscale and the paint is not applied. How do I overcome this?

This can not be done in UE4 as far as I know. What program are you using to apply this to your static meshes.

I’m using the in-built painting tool in the main editor

See if one of the first 4 help you.
