decals

[lumzy]

in hammer 3.4, how do you place decals correctly using the decal tool? they always show up backwards in the editor and never load in-game. i've searched for a tutorial on this but all im able to find are custom spray decal tuts :confused:

did you make sure it "snapped" on the brush? you have to move the decal tool around and have it turn into a thin box.

so you have to make a decal sized brush for it to be on? ex: you can't just paste a "Blue Team" sign on the side of a wall?

if they are apearing backwards use the face properites tool (shift-A)
and then select the wall you want to put the decal on with the lift-select tool
then check face box instead of world, when you apply the texture after doing that it should apear the right way not backwards

as for not showing up in game I've had that problem too and i dont knwo why it happens sorry :(
