I tried workaround where I used a brush instead of a patch and place that just in front of the window, but the the issue is still there - which suggested its with the texture not licking being behind a patch.

Does this have anything to do with the way decals are painted at run-time?

I can have a decal as much as 9 units behind a brush be painted over that brush if I'm far enough away in the map. Up close, TDM properly Z-buffers the two, but at a distance, it paints the decal in front of the brush. I've noticed this with other decals (vines), so this might not be an issue with just the grime decals.

I will check.. but I think it only effects certain decal textures. So this maybe a case of the textures being poorly or incorrectly made.

In answer you your question Gman, I don't know. But what you described is exactly what's happening.

Fyi - This still happens with TDM 1.08.
