Splat texture size must be power of two

Ok, i know there is another post on this but it didn't explain anything. I have a texture and when i try to paint it it says that. What must be the power if two? What numbers should i use?

 

The texture size.

Which would be.... like, do i find the dimensions of the original picture and use those or what?

 

128x128

256x256

512x512

etc...etc...

 

OK, am i just being stupid? i just want to know what numbers are supposed to be the power of 2... because the power of 2 is 2n or 2*2/2*3 and so on... but those don't work or make sense

 

the of 2 is 2^n so 64,128,256,512, ... as mentioned before.
not 2*n only chains of 2 * 2 * 2 * ...

what you list there, 2*n, is multiplies of 2, which is not remotely the same (not even of the same polynomial order and complexity)

no idea who your math teacher was but obviously he would deserve a grade thats lower than the one you likely got with that in polynomial equation exams

 

yeah, sorry, only in 8th grade. So i should use these numbers as x and y? Like, 64x 128y...?

 

it's the Textures width and height in pixels.

 

The texture that you are using to splat must be a square texture (must have the same width and height, I am pretty sure) and the number of pixels along the width and height must be a power of two.

This means that you can only use the following resolutions for your texture:

• 
  2x2
  4x4
  8x8
  16x16
  32x32
  64x64
  128x128
  256x256
  512x512
  1024x1024

 

Thank You!! i finally got it to work.

 

my problem is "texture size must be power of two" none of the previous fixes work ( this is in the add terrain texture menu)
