I am not able to place Decals on my mechs. I tried with old and new ones (I'd like to buy the "Executioner" and "Kill secured" ones), everything is fine until I have to place the decal on the mech: When I see the decal on the mech, if I double click with the mouse nothing happens.
I tried with different mechs / decals.
I am the only one with this issue?

First time i'm hearing about this issue. When you see the decal on the mech that basically means you can place it there. Dunno what could be going on.

Had this problem as well but got around it. Clicked on a decal slot and then the decal and placed it like normal.

Tried but it does not work. I'll ask support.

Ok, I sorted it out: It was the NVIDIA Geforce Experience that was creating the issue. With Shadowplay enabled (the option for broadcasting games,etc) I could not apply decals...

I can say with 100% honesty that I would never be able to guess that would be the cause. How? Why? What? Those are the questions going through my head right now.

Shadowplay from NVIDIA creates an overlay with some "icons" visible during MWO gameplay in the bottom right corner of the screen (they're for broadcasting the game, sharing to friends and other silly things like that).
I think that this overlay somewhat "conflicted" with the decals placement system.
I am no tech guy and I do not know how this could happen, but installing the new Geforce experience 3.0 from NVIDIA (shadowplay is enabled by default) was the only modification that could impact MWO.
Disabling shadowplay -> overlay with icons disappears -> Decals works as usual.
