Smart Prefab Materials look different than authored

Hi,

I followed the docs on how to create Smart Prefab Layer Materials.

However, the saved Materials look much different than what I authored.

Please have a look at this video:

I wonder what could be the reason for this? am I maybe doing something wrong?

What I did:

  • Select all layers
  • Add them to a group by clicking the folder icon
  • Name the group
  • right click → “Add to library as Prefab Material”

It seems all the height blendings are lost now. Could it be that saving a Smart Material form a Layering project does not preserve the individual layers height values?

Hello @Hardev,

Thanks for your post. I was able to reproduce this and will pass it along internally.

Thanks again!

Indeed, I think “Prefab Materials” are only fully supported for “Asset Texturing” projects, not “Material Layering”.

EDIT: I have update the post tags, removed “Asset-Texturing” added “Material-Layering”
