Is there any way to get the materials (vmt. i think) from say, Half-Life Source, into my old WAD format so I can stick it into my HL1 map?
All I really want to know is how to get it OUT of material format I know all the other stuff...
Any Takers? you might win a forum award lol

No cool method that I know of. For the HL2 textures in the "Unique Map" compo, I just used the Print Screen key and Paint Shop Pro to get textures into Wally.
By the way, if you use this method, I would suggest browsing the textures in hammer with a smaller resolution. You dont really want to end up with a WAD made out of 512x512 textures

Get this program, VTF Explorer. This will allow you to extract the materials as TGA's, where you can edit them to your hearts content. Then, it's a relatively simple process to put them into a WAD file, but I'm assuming you know that already.
