Im making a project in UE5 that I can link but when trying to use foliage mode the option doesnt highlight on the ground but it does on assets from quixel bridge how can I make it so it highlights the brush and I can paint on that plane

The two main things that stop the foliage tool from working are:

  1. The option needed isn’t selected

  1. The object you’re trying to paint on has no collision. Take a look in the static mesh editor ( if it’s a mesh )

It’s not the material, I thought that maybe you were painting a mesh. But it’s landscape.

If you can sculpt, then it should be fine.

I’d recommend trying a new level, or a fresh project.
