FXDecals not working
-
my blood splatters and pools aren't showing and i often get my headlight reflection flickering...? any ideas?
-
also tire marks not showing..?
-
I have a really annoying problem also. Bullet holes are not registering in the ground/cars/walls. Blood spatter is not working either.. The blood does not pool around dead bodies. I'm sure there is other issues I haven't noticed, but I've just been trying to fix these issues.
One thing that is really confusing me is that if you go inside a location like a mini mart, these issues are corrected. Bullet holes and blood splatter is registered, but the second I leave the inside of the location it all disappears.
Someone please help?

@WealthyTiger same
-
@CurtArchitect youve installed a mod that has changed something in your decals.dat file. Your decals.dat file values must match your graphics.ytd textures or the game wont know what textures to use for what.
The decals.dat tells the graphics.ytd textures where to go. ( bullet holes, blood... ect. Ect.)
-
@Weirdoutworld thank you!
-
@Weirdoutworld What does it mean if sometimes it works and sometimes it doesnt?
-
@CurtArchitect Perhaps there is to many decals being loaded in one specific area. Try a couple different gameconfig.xml files. I also have this issue from time to time. More recently actually.
-
@Weirdoutworld So discovered that inside of michaels garage the decals work blood pools, car scratches bullet holes etc. but as soon as i drive out the scratches and blood splatter disappear.
-
also when i pause game the decals show
-
@CurtArchite Thats really strange... are you using a mod that replaces decals.dat & graphic.ytd?
-
@CurtArchitect Its the fxdecals.ytd!!!! not graphics.ytd. I was wrong.
decals.dat tells the fxdecals.ytd textures where to go! SORRY!
-
no worries man, thanks for your help! still working at it lol
-
After some time diagnosing I have found my issue, I hope you can find a solution from this also.
My problem was in the dlclist.xml; I was somehow only loading 5 out of the 12 patch day files, somewhere i guess my decals were being dropped in the load. I think it happened when I replaced my cars after the biker update with an outdated dlclist.xml
-
@WealthyTiger nice so what did u do?
-
whats sad is, its been two years and still no answer. I'm going through this problem as we speak.
