Title: Help about my spray.
Post by: devvybabe ♥ on April 04, 2010, 11:44:11 AM
Hey, I have a question and need help as well..
What format is the best for a spray?
My spray won't show at all for some reason..
But I can see it.
Its 256x256 and a btmap image. I tried jpeg but its fail as well.

Why won't it show ? D:
I put it in my screenshot folder and I just grabbed it from there.
I mean I can see it perfectly fine but other people can't.
Although some people are able to see it but not that many.

So what should I do?


EDIT:
WHY WONT MY FKN SPRAY SHOW....

Open it. Resize it to 256x256. Save as *namehere* in .jpg .  Open GMod. Import it. Choose it. Enter server. ????. Profit.

There are people that don't allow content to be downloaded from the server, so they can't see your spray cause they fail, not you =D

I had the same problem. You need to put your spray image in this folder. -->

C:/program files/steam/steamapps/(YOURUSERNAME)/garrysmod/garrysmod/materials/VGUI/logos/UI

Not rly, hes right about the .vtf
If you Convert the image to .vtf its (almost) always supported.
With VTFEdit you can do this, its free and no virusses.
Get it here: http://nemesis.thewavelength.net/index.php?c=178 (http://nemesis.thewavelength.net/index.php?c=178)
After editting, set it here C:/program files/steam/steamapps/(YOURUSERNAME)/garrysmod/garrysmod/materials/VGUI/logos/UI
Or you send me it and i'll do it for you  :D

One person was able to see it.
The rest, well they remained the same.

Would it make a difference if its .vmf or does it really have to be .vtf ?
Or should I wait....
Maybe I should restart steam..
