Since the Halloween update when applying custom textures to objects like picture frames and rugs they will appear grainy and dark. I have used those same custom textures previously without issue prior to the Halloween update.
Note:
Previously the color wheel would be hidden when a custom texture is applied but now it visible.
This has always been an issue when applying custom textures to walls since the game was released in early access but now it’s happening to other objects.
Details: Please share the date, error message, or screenshots/videos for issue verification.
Video 1: In the video below you can see when selecting custom textures they are sometimes displayed grainy or darkened. Adjusting the color wheel seems to be the only thing that will fix it.
It also turns darker and lighter when you change the pattern scale of the picture. Partly only a little darker like here (the above pattern scale is at 80 and the below at 84)
Also I noticed that some pictures which were set to be in a good light turn dark during gameplay or after reload (not sure what causes this) and need to be readjusted again.
Maybe that’s what is affecting the bathtub I posted a bug for the other day.
In fact it seems to be a shadows thing with texture so pretty sure the 2 are linked.
It also happens with the sun towels and carpets. So it seems to be various objects where this occures.
Also strange enough like i posted before with the pictures (see screenshots in my post further above) it changes. What I mean by that: I scale the picture so that it shows up in the correct light, then next time I load the save some pictures have turned dark even though nothing has changed and you have to scale them again. Even scaling the pattern back and forth to the exactly same size as it was before might help, but you have to scale it up or down before to get it in the correct light again.
The rotation fix doesn’t really work for me..
This bug is actually driving me insane. I have been trying to make both a Halloween build,a fall cottage and now I am working on a Christmas build. It is almost impossible to take photos of the builds so that I can upload them,because the paintings and fabrics look like they decided to take a bath in an ashtray.
Oh yes I got that sorry for venting my frustrations!
With a lot of the bugs I feel like I have managed to find some kind of temporary work around at least, but finally the bugs won.
This texture bug has prevented me from making new picture frames and other furniture, it started when KRAFTON removed other creators textures from the downloaders textures, which now the textures are back in the downloaders textures tab, and the bug still exists.
Please fix this soon even if it’s reverting back to before you removed the images.
I scale it to exactly the size it needs to be, then copy the item, place it where I want it and upload to canvas without exiting to play mode and saving because they turn dark again, basically making it impossible to play inZOI the way it is advertised.
For me, I’m just creating in caz and some furniture until this bug is fixed, once it’s fixed then I can craft the worlds like I started to
Ahhh!! I saw this yesterday, I thought it was just me. Like you said JoylsFunner, this way it can’t share things. Well, I’m waiting for that fix … my zoi is thinking…
