I’m having issues with landscape painting, I have set up basic landscape material using: textures → landscape blend node → base color and it works in a way that my layer 0 paints normally, then my layer 1 and 2 can paint over it normally but I can’t paint over layer 2 with layer 1 or layer 0 and can’t paint over layer 1 with layer 0 but can with layer 2. I followed a tutorial on how to set up the material but I’m not sure it works in the 5.7 anymore (layer 0 grass texture, layer 1 sand texture, layer 2 stone texture) I’ve checked all the layer info and tried both LB weight and LB alpha in the landscape blend node but nothing has helped

Watch Problem | Streamable here’s a video of me demonstrating the problem, I have tried using flat normal and roughness maps, both LB Weight Blend and LB Alpha Blend, I’ve tried using Const Height Input set to both 0 and 1 did I miss a step or something I just can’t figure out why it’s painting over if the layer is lower on the list in the material but if it’s higher then it won’t paint over

Just to let you know, you are not alone.
I upgraded my project to 5.7 and I cannot continue because of the landscape painting issues where blending seems to be totally broken.
Not sure how am I supposed to make a game with this when a simple core feature like landscape painting is not working properly lol.
Below an image, I tried to do the same thing with 5.6, there the layer blending worked, then moved the same project into 5.7, used the same material and as you can see the layers are ending up mixed together into this mutant of a material…. very sad.

Same issue for me on 5.7 and apparently also a little weird on 5.6
I’ve tried everything I could at this point
the alpha and texture are connected correctly passing through the landscape layer blend, the UVs are connected to a Landscape Coords, also tried removing that but no success.
Strenght of the brush, fallof, everything.

yeah I was wondering if it’s a bug or is it meant to do differently now but I still have no clue, just decided to work on other things while waiting for either a fix or advice
