Terrain Editor Freezes and Missing Terrain Texture Errors

Hello

I’m experiencing significant lag while using the terrain editor, specifically when painting textures on my map. Every time I paint, the game freezes for around 5 seconds. Additionally, I noticed multiple error messages in the console related to missing terrain textures and cache issues.

Here are some example console logs:

786.573|E|engine::`anonymous-namespace'::getPackTexture|Missing Terrain texture /
786.747|E|engine::`anonymous-namespace'::getPackTexture|Missing Terrain texture /
787.746|E|engine::`anonymous-namespace'::getPackTexture|Missing Terrain texture

What I’ve Tried So Far:

1. Verified that the texture files exist in the correct directory.
2. Cleared the cache in the Documents/BeamNG.drive folder.
3. Lowered terrain texture resolution and brush size.

System Details:

• BeamNG Version: [0.34]
• System Specs: [rtx3090, amd7900x3d, RAM 64 ddr5]
• Map Details: Large map with custom textures and terrain.

Despite my efforts, the issue persists. Has anyone else encountered this problem? If so, do you have any suggestions for resolving the lag and addressing the missing texture errors?

Thank you in advance for your help!

I had the same lag issue (although not that bad) and console message, removing materials without any textures from the terrain painter fixed the issue for me.

 

I got this problem after update 0.34

 

Are you sure you don't have any materials without textures?

 

Yes, sure

The strange thing is that in the 0.33 update it worked perfectly, but with 0.34 it started freezing. This message appears In the control center when painting terrain

 

I been doing this for a good while and know I have not done anything different. You only need a base color and its ambient occlusion to get a paint. And it can be the same picture from the base map. Never in the past has it ever been an issue. The delay is terrible with console reporting in background. I assume turn off all console in the background and just play till it crashes,. It wound be so bad if it reported once and forgets about it. But it does not. I am still trying to figure out why the hell its even looking for a DDS from a cached place since PBR terrain paints don't support them. Is the game attempting to do texture cook the pngs... I dont name them anything for it to try. But that is what seems like is going on. It could be related to the partially implemented parallax maps coming to forest items. That showed up in 34 update. Go to forest tools you will see it.
Thanks for previous comments. I know now I am not alone in the boat without a paddle midways up the creek. I saw just paint around the error. I am going to see if way to disable logging in background until they resolve it.

You realize I mean to get a very basic paint. It will not look good without the macro and details.

 

Sorry, apparently, I do not know my a-- from a hole in the ground.. Problem remains.

 

Nothing yet... Not too many people make maps, this is problem. Too many people make cars and does not care about maps. If I figure out anything I will update. I have not submitted an official bug report. Likely already done by someone else.

 

Problem fixed....
Reinstall drivers with fresh install
Reinstall BeamNG and deleting all traces of it everywhere.
Works fine.
Still I do not remember all that crap going in the background..

 

This did not workkk

I STILL got the GD problem
