Hello Quixel Team!

Great job on the new Mixer 2020 its absolutely amazing!

However i came across a bug that wont let me do a paint mask on a group layer therefore limit the possibilities significantly.

The group layer masking works if the mesh is a simple plane, however if i import megascans mesh or custom mesh the paint masking on group layers doesn't work.

Changing the value from black to white and painting does not affect the mask in any way.

Changing the paint opacity does not affect the mask in any way as well.

The only thing that affects the mask is the Invert button which makes it completely black or white.

Due to the nature of the problem i am also not able to paint mask the smart materials since they use grouped layers as well.

That's all i have noticed so far.

If you need any additional information please feel free to ask.

Thank you for your time and keep up the great work!

Cheers!

  Any progress with the mask feature ?
  
  
  How about being able to export the material while still in 3d mesh mode ?
  
  Loving Quixel everything so far!

  Hi! Mixer is amazing to use, the interface is super great, the tools are freakin smooth, but i felt on the same problem. I'm on 1.1 version, and I updated on 1.4, but the problem is still here. I know they are a lot of other problems to solve sorry if i'm bein annoying x) that's my first post, i look like a spoiled child, but this software is really good, and i want to do good things with it ^^

  i am having the same problem. I'm using quixel mixer 1.6 beta. Is there any improvement? Also, when I want to draw a line with shift in paint mode, it doesn't work.
