Deleting Foliage?

Violet

I tested out the lovely foliage planter function in UDK, and now unfortunately, I can't seem to delete it off my static mesh with CTRL/SHIFT!

When I select a single mesh to apply the foliage to, it plops the foliage all over the map - is foliage assigned to the mesh you have highlighted, or is it applied to the whole world regardless of what mesh you highlight?

Just found out, deleted 'InstancedFoliageActor' in the 'search for actor' box.

also, the foliage erase works like this:
- you set the object density to 0 and turn the erase slider up. that should now erase with the ctrl+shift click.

Hey people, I am having problem with this right now.
I can´t get the Foliage Mode eraser to work at all. I have set the Paint Density to 0 and Erase Density to 1-2, pressed ctrl+shift but it doesn´t seem to work at all?

I think you're setting the Erase Density wrong. It might be unintuitive, but you need to set the Eraser Density to your targeted density, not the amount you want to erase. So, to delete all the foliage, set the Erase Density to 0. Not 1. Setting to 1 means you are erasing to a density of 1, = full density, = nothing changes as you've seen.

The reason why is you can set to .5 or .25 to thin out foliage without erasing everything and having to repaint. It's really helpful once you get used to it.
