That's FUBAR! Can we fix it?

It DOES NOT work!

What doesn't?

Decal Machine!

Yeah, tell me about it...

Here is a fun story for you.

I thought I knew it all regarding Decal Machine, until I ran into this issue.

One day I opened Blender, loaded in an old .blend file, and all of the decals were crazy purple.

Zero textures.

All gone!

And I had no idea what the hell happened.

See, add-ons are like machines.

They sometimes need a bit of tinkering or a know-how to get them working as intended.

And in my case all I had to do was to update the decal libraries.

Now, I know it is tedious to go through the documentation, or some really poorly structured tutorials.

Been there, done that.

So, to save you a bit of time and grey hair, I recorded a really helpful video on Decal Machine.

It will show you how you can easily fix two most common issues with decal libraries.

One of these issues is unavoidable, since it comes with the current version of DM.

Yup, you install the latest version, and boom you can't see any decal libraries.

Easy fix though!

Here is how it's done:
