Hey all,

I made a tilable texture in the 2.5 canvas. I had the models polypainted and now after extracting the diffuse i cant seem to apply other materials to the model without the polypaint information overlaying it.

Is there a way i can remove the polypaint information from my document layer? I cant edit the model anymore to access the polypaint settings.

Thanks!

You can overpaint with white. That will remove all the color:

  1. Select the Simple Brush in the Tool palette.
  2. Select the DragRect stroke in the Stroke palette.
  3. Select Alpha 28 in the Alpha palette.
  4. Turn off ZAdd and turn on Rgb in the Draw palette (or top of the UI). Set RGB Intensity to 100.

    Now use the Zoom canvas control to scale down the document so it’s easy to work with. Set the Color to White and then click and drag from the center of the canvas to the bottom right-hand corner. This will cover the whole cnavs with white, wherever there are pixols. Materials will not be affected.
