did you install the mod correctly?
because there is no way the franken cube will show up with the build I posted, there are two portal 2 folders, make sure you drag that folder over the portal 2 in your steamapps/common folder

Yep. Checked it, and then checked it again to make sure I hadn't screwed something up. Installed it as you said, Windows gave me a prompt to merge the folders, item still doesn't appear in the editor

now I remember, I forgot I made changes to one version and not another, so the item is on your palette you just cant see it because the monster box is over top of it
I re-deleted the monster box on the palette
re download the mod and install and it should work now
well I assume, again I havent tried it out

You have one more small error, I fixed it in my copy by renaming the file but thought you might want the heads up so you can fix it in your uploaded copy, otherwise works perfectly now

Made a small test map to test it out, if someone that doesn't currently have the TWP ads in their test folder wouldn't mind testing it to make sure I've packed it properly I'd appreciate it, and then I can work on adding it into my maps. Thanks again to all for your efforts!

Might be worth sticking this on the Download DB

Fair enough If you do add more support for more decals please update this thread, I appreciate the chance to give back given what TWP has given me (even before I started posting I played a lot of community maps all the way back to the Portal 1 days)

Another problem: I've noticed that for some reason if you die in the level and then respawn the decals disappear.

That's what decals do, apparently. The faith plate targets also disappear after a reload.

So it does, but it only appears to happen to PTI maps, exported one and ran it in hammer and it didn't happen. Time to go to the steam forums and file a bug report
