Hello. If the plant asset I require isn’t in the library then I often find something similar in shape and try to alter the colour of the leaves or flowers accordingly, however, when I use the Base Colour Map settings it only changes the top part of the leaf/flower - I assumed there must be a separate texture for the under side but this is not the case, the underside remains almost as per the original colouring. For example I downloaded the asset ‘American Begonia’ which is pink and tried to make the flowers white to look like a variety of prunus, but the bright pink parts that remain prevent me from achieving the necessary look I need - the same seems to apply to all vegetation whereby the undersides don’t fully alter like the top parts do.
I appreciate that I’m probably the only D5 user with this issue so I don’t expect you to spend much time on it, but if there is a quick fix for me than that would be great
Even if I remove all hints of pink from the upper part of the surfaces (S = 0), the lower still shows pink. I’m trying to achieve a completely white effect to mimic another plant that isn’t in the asset library. This is a strange feature of D5 where the primary surface on display behaves differently to the secondary face even though they have the same texture.
Hello! I’m having the same problem, trying to turn a bush from green to orange/yellow for autumn colors.
For me it comes from the “Foliage” material and/or “Subsurface Color”. If I turn the “Material Template” to “Custom Alpha” (where there is no Subsurface Color Map) then all the leaves (top and bottom) becomes Yellow. I think the problem is that it’s not possible to alter the “Subsurface Color” the same way it’s possible to alter the “Base Color Map”.
In the image, the fully yellow bush in the background is a Local Asset where I changed both the Base Color Map and the Subsurface Color Map.
An idea for a fix, or to implement the possibility to modifiy the “Subsurface Color” in a future release?
