# Texturing with biomes
In the DT\_Biome there is a small section to add a landscape material. You also have another way to change the material in the [biome painter](https://qwertystudio.gitbook.io/massive-world/drawing-roads-rivers-lakes-and-biomes/biomes) if you use a custom. Note that this is not a classic Landscape Material but an "auto material mask", in short, it doesn't have access to the terrain data like the slope or normal direction and needs to be done differently.
### Baking biome texture
Most of the work had been automated as much as possible using the database (CDT\_AllVirtualTexture) but baking the texture took a few seconds so I made it a manual button to click called "Bake Texture" on the BP\_Biome actor and inside BPC\_BiomeTextureBaker. Just click on it and it will do all the hard work for you.

Baking the biome will create a small object in your project, be sure to not move Massive World from it original place in the folder otherwise this could cause some trouble.
