As you can see in the screenshots above, i have a brush and applied a custom texture to the top face, but it's not visible in the 3D window. You can see it's there in the face edit sheet when i select it. Also notice the black lines coming out of it. What's up with that?

It's a custom texture with valid dimensions and a valid vmt file. It shows up in the texturebrowser just fine.

What's going on here?

As you already know, none of things you suggested in our Steam chat worked.

Fixed it.
Apparently, the vmt's were saved with UTF-8 encoding. Resaving them with ANSI encoding fixed it.

@#$%!

And how exactly did you modify that? Is there even an option for it?

Actually, i created some Visual Basic .NET code to generate the vmt's. I specifically told it to use ASCII (which is ANSI) text encoding.

Yesterday i left that bit out and then it would always save as UTF-8 as UTF-8 is the default text encoding if you don't specify the Text Encoding parameter.
