I keep watching tutorials and seemingly they keep changing the landscape without a sweat. Me on the other hand is having issues, I don’t know if I’m pressing the wrong key or something, I keep holding and clicking mouse 1 after I created the landscape thing, but I can’t edit it :C Any help?
Make sure you are holding the Ctrl key (or Command on Mac I think) as you click and drag. Left mouse for positive values, Left + Shift key for negative.
EDIT: Fixed answer, thanks Inside.
You must:
-
Select scultping tool first.
-
Then you press Ctrl+LMB to edit terrain
-
Using Ctrl+Shift+LMB will make tool to work in opposite mode. (Sculpt tool for example will subtract from Heightmap).
Ahh, thanks Inside, I was thinking Mudbox I think with the right click for opposite mode.
Is it just me or does the shift key not work well for the landscape tool? I’ve tried two keyboards. I would rather use a hotkey but I can’t find the setting.
When I hold down shift to get negative terrain, it only works when I’m moving the mouse around. If I hold the mouse still, and hold shift the terrain still grows in the positive direction.
Confirmed I have this problem in v4.9.1
