Interesting. Have you tried doing a HDR/-final compile

fathom frost
#

nope

#

i'll try

#

still the same

near shale
#

Put some orange looking rocks on that ridge, modern problems require modern solutions 😄

fathom frost
#

the original map does not contain any rocks

#

i have to fix it

#

issue appears on location of seams

#

of displacements

fathom frost
#

anybody?

#

Could it be because of the power of 4 displacements? Could try to make the displacements smaller and change it to 3

fathom frost
#

yep they are

#

made them power 3

#

it now far less visible but still\

near shale
#

Could be texture alignment. On the right side of that hill it looks a little offset. Have you selected them all and aligned them as one?

#

Alternatively, creating more brushes for a smoother transition might help

fathom frost
#

no it's not

#

that's how it looks with full bright

#

textures are perfectly aligned

near shale
#

Ah yeah that's much more clear

#

Could be a strange lighting artifact. See if you can adjust how the brushes are designed e.g. smooth them out more or add more brushes to allow better subdivision

fathom frost
#

it's definitely the lightning issue

#

maybe i could play with luxel scale

#

nope

#

that doesn't change anything

near shale
#

Out of my expertise this one

fathom frost
#

i hope someone can actually look into this one

fathom frost
#

could somebody try to compile this

#

maybe it's my hammer's problem

#

as i use slammin' compilators

near shale
#

i use hammers actual compilers

fathom frost
#

try to compile it yourself

Displacements are not sown

#

You have to make the displacements differently

#

You cannot sew displacements that are made on different levels.

i automatically generated it with terrain generator

#

i have no idea how to work with displacements and i fear them

#

as i'm absolutely incompetent in this question

fathom frost
#

guess i got to just accept this bug lol

eternal mirage
#

Follow one or both of the tutorials and you'll learn how to use displacements.

fathom frost
#

it means i need to remake the whole displacement

#

which is not really great

Yes, but then you'll know how to do it properly. It will fix the issues with the lighting and sewing for this map, and for future maps.
