The patch textures that indicate if there's a ammo/health pack doesn't show up. Tried changing the 3D view stuff and it didn't fix the problem.

It doesn't look like you've used the overlay tool. In the sidebar, the overlay tool is the cube that has the green square on the top. To apply an overlay to a surface, load whatever texture you want into the texture browser, click the overlay tool, and this should turn your cursor into a star shape. Click the surface where you want your overlay, and it should place it down.

Try checking that these four keyvalues in the info_overlay are all set to valid values.

If, for instance, "U End" is 32 instead of 1, then you're probably seeing a massively blown-up version of your texture, and only rendering a handful of pixels instead of the entire thing.
You can get around this when resizing overlays by having texture lock on while you do it (and REMEMBERING to turn it off after, unlike me!!!)
