Decals not showing up

[TheWibby]

So I installed the game a few days ago and everything runs fine, except for a weird bug where I can't see decals of any kind. No blood stains or pools, bullet holes in walls, explosion scorching or anything. I've checked graphics settings, tried a reinstall, and updated my graphics driver and I'm still getting nothing. I find it even stranger that I can play RO2/RS on the same computer and the decals work just fine. It's super frustrating and ruins the immersion for me, especially because I really like the way Tripwire does gore. Anyone have a similar issue or have any suggestions to help me out? Would really appreciate it.

I play on an HP laptop btw with a GeForce GTX 850 M card, and use all medium settings except for high on particle, world, and character detail

You ever resolve this? I am having same problem on new laptop with all graphics settings. i7 7700HQ and GTX 1060. I cannot see decals in the SDK either.

[absolutely useless]

same here, they were working just fine for a while then stopped recently

I tried numerous things including disabling GPU and running off Integrated Graphics, re installing game, reinstalling C++ redistributables, and all graphics settings but stil cannot see any decals.

Did you try deleting the config files?

Delete that folder. When you launch the game, a new one will be created. You'll have to change all your settings and keybindings again, and character customizations.

Yes tried that too. Also tried creating a new decal in sdk and even that won't show. RO2 and RS1 decals display fine in that game though

Sorry, wasn't trying to insult your intelligence! That's quite strange, man.

UPDATE FIX: Courtesy of [TW]bad@Chaos, a solution has been found!

-With the game closed
-Open ROEngine.ini in your config folder.
-Search for 'decal'
-Continue until you reach:
-StaticDecals=
-DynamicDecals=
-Mine were both set to False, change this to true.
-Launch game

That shouldn't happen.

Do you have Controlled Folder Access enabled?
