Go to Edit -> Find / Replace texture...

You will see this window:

... fill in the name of the texture and common/caulk as in the picture.

The caulk texture is not drawn in the game, but highly visible in Radiant ( pink and yellow checkerd ).

BE SHURE TO SAVE YOUR MAP BEFORE PULLING A STUNT LIKE THIS!!!

to find that hidden texture!!!

when using select from texture you must have only one selected face
this will then highlight in red (select) all the brushes using that texture

but... your saying i don't know where this texture is... so...

create a new brush and apply the texture to only 1 face, then with the selected face repeat the previous step and hey presto it'll show u exactly where it is

remember to delete the new brush u created

ok i will try that becasue i did not find it the other way and the thing is i know for certian that i did not choose this texture this has happened before the same texute poppong up as if i have used it is it possible this texture "shares something with another or a static model this is perplexing

Well tuffstuff7... how is the texture a problem if you cant see it anywhere? Thats what you want, right? I would personally ignore it until it became a problem?

And if there IS aproblem: What exactly is it?

well no prob really lol just grinding that this same texture pops up and knowing you did not select it well there would seem to be a porb with that but yes i guess i will just ignore thank you all for your help anyways
