Material fails to compile

UE4 4.13
Marketplace asset “Pirates Island”
Material: \Content\PirateIsland\Nature\Materials\Landscape_Mat.uasset

The material fails to compile when Project Settings only enable “Platform Windows - DirectX 11 (SM5)”.

Is there a way to compile this, or to resolve those errors, for DX 11?

Here is the log:

Hi btengelh,

Did you make any changes to the material at all? I loaded the Pirate Island map and had no problem compiling the landscape material after changing the Targeted RHI to be only DirectX11. Could you provide a screenshot of the material graph for the landscape material as well.

Hi Ed, I managed to solve this according to this thread: https://answers.unrealengine.com/questions/61400/max-layers-exceeded-but-i-do-have-less-than-16.html

SamplerSource property to Shared.

Meanwhile I tried the PirateIsland in a new blank 4.13 project and there were no errors. I guess this is caused in this one particular project by being upgraded thorugh different releases dating as far back as 4.8. Problem solved, thank you!

where is this setting and how do we find it???
