Copying a Terrain made of mesh

2023-04-11T12:52:59Z

Hello,
I have a problem with a copy of Terrain made of mesh.
When I make a copy of the Terrain in the Hierarchy tab (copy-paste) all the changes I make to the copy of the Terrain (e.g. I paint it in a certain place with a texture) the same change will automatically be made on the original Terrain from which I made a copy. What should I do so that I can change the copy (repaint) and keep the original Terrain unchanged?

Cannot convert from 'Shader' to 'UnityEngine.Shader' error on import

2021-08-23T17:00:13Z

Hi, I'm using URP and unity 2020.3.12f1 and as soon as I import Mesh To Terrain I receive three errors:

Assets\Infinity Code\MeshToTerrain\Scripts\Editor\Converter\MeshToTerrain.Textures.cs(178,41): error CS1503: Argument 1: cannot convert from 'Shader' to 'UnityEngine.Shader'

Assets\Infinity Code\MeshToTerrain\Scripts\Editor\Converter\MeshToTerrain.Textures.cs(176,34): error CS0117: 'Shader' does not contain a definition for 'Find'

Assets\Infinity Code\MeshToTerrain\Scripts\Editor\Converter\MeshToTerrain.Textures.cs(175,101): error CS0117: 'Shader' does not contain a definition for 'Find'

The Infinity option also did not appear in the Window menu. I've been struggling to figure out what's going on here so any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Index format?

I was wondering if Mesh to Terrain would work with meshes using Uint32 index format. Thanks.

HDRP Terrain layers - no textures

2021-05-19T23:49:01Z

Hi, I have successfully converted a mesh textured with a satellite image into 8x5 terrain tiles. Each tile has the correct texture, exactly as the mesh. However, in HDRP, when I try to paint over it with new terrain layers, e.g. grass or gravel, the textures are not visible. Any new layer, no matter what texture it contains, turns into a solid color. This has worked using the built in render pipeline. What can be done?

It's generating empty terrains

2021-03-22T14:44:06Z

I have had a few terrains generate successfully but it seems random. In most cases, I get a result that looks like this. If I use "auto detect" for the bounds it does this same thing too. Which parameters might be causing this? Thanks.

Is there a limit to how many triangles the mesh being converted can have?

Faceted terrain after split

2019-12-28T15:56:58Z

I am converting a 20km mesh to terrain and also splitting that terrain into 20x20 1km chunks.

In the process, the terrain becomes faceted. I've tried adjusting resolution of heightmap and also toggling the adjust size checkbox to no avail. If I do not split the terrain I get fine results, but when I split into 20 chunks the faceting happens.

I tried to upload pics but it seems I can only upload one at a time?

Size problem after model transformation into terrain

2019-08-16T01:05:07Z

When my model is transformed into terrain, the size of the model and terrain is not exactly the same. Is this a bug? Thank you

The bottom of the grid has been filled up after it has been turned to

2019-08-12T09:36:39Z

Why? I don't want the bottom to be filled.

Converting terrains from collada, 3dmax etc.

2018-05-13T10:37:06Z

Hi,

I would like to buy your asset but I am not sure what I get. I ma not sure if I need it at all because I have assets like Gaia, Relief Terrain pack, CTS, Vegetation Studio and I could create everything in Unity editor too.

I can sometimes find a good work outside of Unity and maybe that could be reason to buy your asset.

Let's see some examples and could you tell me what I get after conversion, what about models like trees rocks etc.?

1. https://www.cgtrader.com/3d-models/exte … ngle-scene

Do I need your converter if there will obj formats available?

I wanted to show more examples but only one link is allowed.

Thanks

Terrain height

2018-01-22T21:40:55Z

Hi,

Is it possible to generate each terrain piece with the full 16-bit height range? At the moment the tonal range seems to be determined by the height of the source object for all tiles. In my case, this means each tile only uses a small slice of the available 16-bit colour range, making them bumpy to move over.

Any help appreciated!

Best regards,
Rob

My mesh is converted weirdly..

2017-12-18T06:01:32Z

Hi~!

I converted my mesh to terrain with your asset. Results are very confusing.

How can I fix this? Help me please:)

Will Mesh to Terrain work with concave meshes?

2017-07-31T11:23:46Z

I have posted a image of my work. Wanted to know if this can be converted to terrain with mesh to terrain.

Geovox terrain import

2017-06-30T04:10:43Z

Hello All,

Thinking about buying this software but wanted to know if any one has used this with a Geovox terrain ?

When GV terrains are imported to Unity they are "voxel chunks", essentially meshes, so I'm assuming it should be ok but wanted to see if anybody had any experience with them.

Many Thanks

Error: NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance

2016-06-17T03:54:02Z

(Firstly, I'd like to say this tool is fantastic. It saved me a huge bunch of time to transfer my terrains from 3dmax to unity. Thank you , my dear developers. )

I have met a wired problem, and stucked on it for a while. I have a terrain which is made in 3dmax, it is a collection of 1302 pieces of meshes, and every mesh has its material. I recieved a bunch of errors while applying the Mesh To Terrainl, but it seems to be the same type of error. (shown below) The wired part of this is when I convert the meshes piecewisely (10 pieces of meshes per time), there is no error appeared, but since I have 1300 pieces of meshes, it is too tedious to convert them 10 by 10.
Need help . . .
