Terrain grid?

I am attempting to create a grid on the terrain by creating a texture that is just a box.
But when I apply it I get this. I put it in the bottom left and the two defaults textures along the side for a reference.
I think the textures are kind of getting overlapped but I don't know. If anybody does know how I could fix this or make a grid a different way I could use the help. Thanks.

Yes it is I made sure of that. not being a power of 2 usually results in it flat out not showing up.

Looks screwy for sure. Since it's a PNG... so try a JPG or something. I sometimes had weird results with PNGs related to the color depths

That screenshot looks suspiciously like Torque is not liking something about the source format. Try different color depths and file formats. I've seen results like that when I tried using the wrong size, or the wrong color depth.

Hi, i think you must not just use a texture with the power of 2, but you must use a size of 256*256 for terrain textures in TGE.

I had the same thing happen today. I wound out having to use a flat dts box on place it 1 unit above the ground as a work around. I've added plenty images to terrain textures before and this was the first time this happened to me. And the image display exactly like yours.
