Source SDK Custom Textures Help!
« on: May 29, 2010, 05:43:42 PM »
I found a great tutorial on making custom textures for Source SDK (atleast I thought it was great) and I followed the tutorial perfectly but when I use the texture in Hammer the material is purple and black :(. I think it's somehow some problem with the .vtf text file I made but idk what I did wrong :(. Please helpz.

When you made the texure did you save it as a targe (tga) file then convert to vtf?

put them into your cstrike folder and any other game that your going to use it on like gmod.
Sometimes i find putting them into a folder called custom works i dunno why. Try restarting sdk after putting them in.

Lets do this

Get your pic

Open VTFEdit

Import the pic

Save as custom_001

move to a new folder called custom in steamapps\username\counter-strike-source\cstrike\materials\custom

make a vmt file from there

open hammer

Use new texture

Be happy

Follow the rules or I will you.
