I am probably missing something obvious, but how do I go about painting the landscape instead of altering it's form?
thanks

Select the texture you want from the list in the landscape editor window, then right click to apply it to the ground.

Theres a limit to how many seperate textures you can use in each cell quarter, it's about 6 if I recall correctly. I had a similar issue a while ago.

Doh! I remembered painting land textures with GECK for New Vegas, and I remember having the same problem, but not how i solved it. I be dork!

Thanks guys!
