you’re in luck, they clearly don’t pay attention to this forum for future development!

We don’t need more 3D stuff.

Yes, use another software. This is one of the most frustrating bugs ever since the grass region was introduced. Great that we have that feature (half baked) but not great that it doesn't just turn off by hiding it's layer. Unless someone else can chime in, I don't know the fix for this. I would love to get embarrassed with a solution. Which is why I use AI to do my final renderings. No grass region to deal with. Don't waste your time. Chief is not for renderings.

I would love to be able to create my terrain using 3D solids and then, simply convert 3D solid to terrain.

Not crickets, just overwhelming. I think you are overthinking this. Let AI do the work. One simple prompt is all you need.

Did René buy Chief?

So, you are saying that you can bang out PBR's on the level as what AI is doing in a few seconds? Or am I misunderstanding? I understand that an NVIDEA graphic machine is lightening fast compared to any Mac but garbage is garbage. You can't compare to what AI can do in under 20 seconds on any machine. I would like to see Chief focus on stuff like material lists, staircases, wall snapping issues, poor cad tools, poor dimensioning tools and all that other stuff that although is boring and wont increase sales but is very important and the long and faithful customer base has been clamouring for since many many years.

Below is simply a "partition wall" Drywall on interior side only. Check "partition" in the wall type definition dbx (wall properties tab) It won't connect to the (in this case) two perpendicular walls. I often have to do this for when I have plumbing coming up an exterior wall. (can't have that here in the great white north)

You lie

Even just the hatch patterns and include the swatches of material from a screen capture and AI will make its own seamless texture and do a much better job. (I'm using Gemini with the Image feature - all free) p.s. I attended the webinar yesterday regarding AI in Chief. from what I saw, it seems AI will be incorporated in X18 to enhance video walkthroughs, I think?

petition to move @Rich_Winsor permanently to the chatroom since he can't behave.

You can just feed it an elevation with only the pattern lines, along with the sample swatches of whatever material you want to use, and it will generate the seamless textures itself. like this….

I don’t wanna be a party pooper, but this was a great thread and it’s turned into a circus unfortunately. Maybe we need a new section for serious posts only?

who do I need to pay to get you moved up the priority ladder?...

not sold on this yet. at the moment it's half baked. Not everyone working on the file needs textures. There's more than just 3D on a project. Anyway, looking forward to the evolution of PM in X18. @Renerabbitt
