Mudbox UV's mess up after a certain subdivision level

gannonroader · Dec 2011

I'm working on a terrain in mudbox, along with world machine based on a tutorial on youtube. I followed the tutorial exactly, but i'm getting a problem every single time (on my 5th different mesh now) where the terrain UV seems to mess up after the 3rd subdivision. a large vertical strip on one side of the mesh just just looks like it has a different material applied to it. I tried recreate level uv's, and other simple things, but nothing i'm doing seems to work at all. Any ideas? I'm pretty new to mudbox, so I'm figuring this is just one of those "noob" mistakes.

I've seen this before as well: http://www.moddb.com/forum/thread/mudbox-problem-with-terrain-uv (I think he might have found the solution at the end, if not perhaps it'll offer more insight into what people are doing when this error occurs)

EDIT: ahhhhhhhh! Thank you! I misread it the first time, but I recreated the plane in mudbox rather than importing one, and it seems to have fixed it. Awesome. Thanks man.
