Maximum amount of materials per landscape?

Simple question.

What is the maximum amount of materials per landscape that I can use to paint?

I read there is a maximum of 16 (-4 for rendering) textures per materials but that does not answer my question.

Blockquote
There is one landscape material per landscape. It is configured in the editor and cannot be changed at runtime.

I wrote this initially;

however, in the interest of being “technically” correct (which we all know is the “best” kind of correct), there are actually two materials.

The Landscape Material is likely what you are asking about, and my statement above holds true.

The other Material is the Landscape Hole Material, which is used when you are rendering a Landscape Hole (obviously.)

hi @Browserice

Also i will point out you said to paint. The main landscape material is a single material, but contains LAYERS that are blended.

So yes the 16 - 4 is correct as thats the maximum per material. Tho you can set the texture samples to shared:wrap which i believe can over come this, but be warned the more you use the more texture pool you need.
