For all future users who read this thread.
If you encounter the issue where the weight layer appears seemingly at half opacity you must:
- Set the base layer of the landscape (Layer1 in my case) to no weight blend in the layerinfo
- Set the base layer to LB Weight Blend in the material landscape layer blend node
- Set the layer that is being applied on top (Layer2 in my case) to LB Alpha Blend
I unfortunately do not know why this is how it has to be, but only that it works.
This should fix your issue. Good luck.
I believe this also fixes the same issue where landscape road splines appear at half opacity/transparent. So I’m adding that here incase it helps anyone search for that fix.
