Follow the link that Homicide13 gave you.
But you have to know one thing : the texture needs to be "parallel" and can follow itself. Like if you put two brushes with the same texture side by side, it should have no difference you know ?

When working with textures it is recommended that you convert them to .dds format, which can be done in either gimp or photoshop using a downloadable plugin.
This wiki page describes the different available texture-maps:

I think you should use the "soliddiffuse" setting instead of decal too
Play around some with MaterialEditor.exe, you'll quickly get the hang of it.RE: Texture help - Pr3d4t0r - 09-22-2011

Thank you, i got it pretty good but there's some problems. I placed a black plane as a floor and then i placed the texture over it and it looks pretty good but the sound disappears sometimes when i run on the floor.
Also i want this textures as the floor in a corridor, how do i get rid of the square shape so it looks like one big mat?

Then it's simply to place the texture. To increase texture size in any direction;

1. Select your plane
2. Click the tab plane
3. Adjust tile amount - lowering the values gives you a larger texture, increasing the values gives you smaller textures.
