I'm sorry I'm confused. Im extrememly new so my terminology might be off. What is a primitive world? I'm working in the Meta Horizon World Builder and it's pretty primitive, there is nothing there but my block. 😁
I've watched tons of step by step tutorial videos and they paint their blocks in build mode with no error message. If it can't be done, why is there a paint brush?
I've really tried to resolve this myself. I start a new world, bring in a block, circle, etc. I then try to change its color and I'm met with the error message.
If you are using the desktop editor, I don't think you can even create a primitive world anymore. However, if you are creating in headset, when you create a new world, it should ask you what type of world (primitive/sub-d, or Custom Model Import/CMI) you want it to be. If you choose CMI or created the world using the desktop editor, you cannot use the paint tool to color shapes.
As HomeMed has mentioned you will have to import your own textures or use the Gen AI Tool (USA only). Note that you can just import a 64x64 square of a solid color if you want to paint the shape a solid color.
