ArmorPaint Really Buggy?

Hi all, I’m new to ArmorPaint and purchased the software as I am doing a udemy course that reccomended it as a texturing tool.

I am working on an ammo crate that has a lot of layers of textures, and I find I am constantly running into issues.

  • When I add white masks it effects the colour ID assigned to all layers, not just the one I’m currently working on, requiring me to go back and re assign the IDs.
  • The base colour of certain textures randomly disappears. I’ve attached a screenshot where the colours of textures are in greyscale for some reason.
  • Sometimes input completely stops registering when I’m working on masks, painting in edge wear etc.

Restarting the software sometimes resolves the issues, but often means I have to back track and I’m honestly getting really frustrated!

I’ve been using ArmorPaint 9.
