:confused:
Hi all.

I'm trying to put some sprites in my map.

Just for testing 2D vs 3D avatar impact on presence (aka immersion).

I need to show up a sprite (a woman's photo) so that the player can walk around it and the sprite will always rotate on vertical axis.

Now...
I'm having some problem in showing up that sprite.
I've done:
-created my sprite, saved as tga
-created vtf and vtm
-in Hammer, I created a env_sprite, and used my sprite an sprite name (looked up in texture explorer)
-in the editor, I see my texture, exactly as I need.
But... But...
When I compile, I see this error:

execing skill.cfg
Model textcustom/3 not found!
Setting CSprite to non-sprite model textcustom/3

also when I use a hl2 sprite already exisiting:

Model sprites/640_pain not found!
Setting CSprite to non-sprite model sprites/640_pain

Why "not found !"?
What have I to do, in order to see it in my map ?
Tks all!
