Cant create jpg

[jyhdyjguf]

Iam trying to create a flowmap jpg however i get this error whenever i try to create the texture in the "Texture Paint Mode",or "Surface Custom Texture".It gives this error for any format i try to create.A work around is to make a blank jpg in gimp then import it into the asset browser,and i can paint on it with no issue.

Win 10 and Editor 2.19.0.1

Project Type C++ & Directx 12

There is no way to store RGBA data inside a JPEG file (it only can handle up to 3 channels - RGB). Please try to use different file format.

For flowmap I think it would be enough to have 2 channels (RG).

Any file format either .jpeg,.jpg,exr,etc or any channels RG,RGB,etc,or any depth all result in that exact error i posted i cant create any image file in the editor

When i browse my project in windows file explorer i can see all the image files i tried to create in the editor,however all the image files are 0 bytes.

Hello, watch the video tutorial on how to create a flowmap.

[jyhdyjguf]

the issue is the editor will not generate a valid image file regardless if its meant for a flow map or not.

 

No file called texture.jpg shows up in asset browser

But it creates a empty jpg file in windows directory

What ive tried

• Unchecking read-only on the project folder
• Adding project folder exclusion to anti virus
• windows user account has full control over project folder(Read,write,etc)
• Tried previous sdk 2.18
