Reply To: strength of smear under .5 not doing anything

It’s definitely only displaying 8 bit colors by default. I discovered last week that we should be enabling the 32 bit float operation when creating textures in 2.8, especially for use with Eevee.

As for the smear brush, strengths lower that 0.5 are still effecting the texture for me.

Perhaps the color values are so similar in your texture that there’s little perceptible change?
