I want some blood on the floor under my dead scientist but I can't really get it done.
I tried the blood texture, but they look funny because the blood is black and the background is white. Check out this screenshot:

that's what my blood texture looks like.
I also tried the env_blood entity, but that does not work good.
The gibshooter does, but it's not really easy to put that in.(check out the screenshot, you might start thinking what a blood & dead scientist loving freak I am, but I'm not of course, well, just a bit ;) )

but does anyone know if there is an easier way to get this done?

Try putting the env_blood entity in your map again. Give it a name and target it with something like 'trigger once'. Set the angle as 'down'. Choose red for 'color of blood'. On the flags choose 'spray decals.' For 'amount of blood' choose what you want. I usually set it at 25 and use several env_bloods with the same name to control where the splatter is. But you have to find what works best for your map. Try it in a small test map so you can tweak the look of it without waiting for a big map to compile, then move it into your real map when you have it looking right.

Try applying those white textures as decals. Select one of them, then press Shift+D and click in the 3D view. That should work for simple (but dried-up) blood spatters.

Errr, me too.
Grapez, is there something we should know... I mean, hanging scientists, slaughterhouse decals? Is an Evil Dead theme going on here.
Having said that I know a person that has a fascination with cooking monsters in Microwaves!!! but it still is the funniest sequence I have seen in ages, and well executed (pardon the pun:-)
