What is a "Valid UDIM Marker?

[michaelws]

I am trying to save the Image in the Image Editor. I get an error message that says the file must contain a valid UDIM Marker. It shows the file path in the error message. I haven’t encountered this before. Can someone help me understand how I can remedy this error? Thanks

Problems saving a tiled image

Trying to save a tiled image but getting this error message “When saving a tiled image the path must contain a valid UDIM marker”. What’s wrong?

By the way, the teeth are looking good!

I get an error message that says the file must contain a valid UDIM Marker.

That’s because you’re editing the file name to Blue_Palette.png…
You should save it as Blender sugests Blue_Palette.<UDIM>.png. That way the files will be properly saved with their UDIM tokens (as in Blue_Palette.1002.png).
