Leaves losing texture after opacity mask is applied.

Development Rendering

My workflow-
Blender, create tree using sapling.

  • convert to mesh
  • select Trunk+branches
  • create “trunk” material
  • load bark texture into material
  • select leaves.
  • Apply leaf texture in same manner.
  • join leaves+trunk into one entitiy.
  • Export FBX
  • import to UNreal
  • Place tree into world to view.
    (textures are showing up on trunk and leaves, yet opacity mask isnt working yet for the leaves)
  • open leaf material.
  • change settings to masked, two sided foliage, and click two sided.
  • preview shows leaves as they should be with mask in tact…
  • Apply new settings to world.
  • Leaves no longer visible.
    What am I doing wrong?
    (UPDATE): It’s worth mentioning that if I import the leaves as a separate entity and bluprint the leaves to the trees, I don’t have this problem… however, If i do this, I cant place them with the foliage tool. Any help here would be outstanding.

Need more info. At least show what the material looks like.

I figured it out… For future reference to anyone having this problem… The const coordinate was defaulting to zero on the texture … make sure you set it to 1, and do the same with any normal maps, etc… Problem solved. Thanks for replying Jonimake. take care. (Edit) I would place “Solved” at the end of the Thread name, but I have no option to rename the thread.

Shouldn’t it be 0 though? Do you have 2 UV maps?
