Hey everyone, I am having an issue with a decal applying to a wall, when I apply it in hammer it all checks out fine, but once I load it in game this happens:

Any idea how I can make this not happen? It is very frustrating and I am at a loss.

Use an overlay instead. Better control of surfaces etc. Displacements and brush entities act strangely around decals.

Not sure if I can I applied that decal through code for a clan banner, so people won't have to re download the map, just the texture. Also, when I apply it in hammer as a overlay, it doesn't apply to the face correctly, the brush it is on is actually two, Decals can be placed seamlessly on two flat surfaces overlay's can not.

Overlays can be placed onto a max of 64 brushfaces. In the entity property box there is a button to select the brush faces it should display on (similar to texture application, just click away).
If this is for a server, why not use a plugin to apply your decals where you like? I remember doing this in-game back when I ran them when sourcemod was starting up.

That is what I am doing, this is a clan banner for a server I am running, I used a plug in to test it on a decompiled version of Dust2 before doing it to the server version, I am doing all of this with entspy.

Decompiled maps are broken, vmex makes a best guess and fails at doing things properly so best to just stick with testing on the actual map itself.
Like I said, we did this in-game while the server was running, much easier than playing with entspy.
In game...on a live server? I am quite intrigued by this, tell me more, because I feel like I am doing this the hard way. The key thing with this is adding the banner to the stock maps without the client having to download anything more than a texture.
