HL2 deathmatch custom textures Created 18 years ago2006-04-25 19:09:56 UTC by Bandit

I have made some custom textures that work fine in hl2 but when I go to hl2 deathmatch the textures exist and I can see the names but they only show as pink and black boxes. The location of the vmt and vtf is C:Program FilesSteamSteamAppsmyaccounthalf-life 2 deathmatchhl2mpmaterials.
Anyone have this problem before?

I should have said all this is occuring while using source hammer.

Besides having the materials in your HL2 and HL2MP folders, you should have some folder like this ...myaccountsourcesdk_contenthl2materialsrcyourtextures

If you want the textures to show up with hl2mp, you need to copy that folder and make a ...myaccountsourcesdk_contenthl2mpmaterialsrcyourtextures

Ok I will give that a shot and let you know...I appreciate help.

Did nt work....what about the tga,,does it need to go somewhere else? do you have another idea?

Copied from Properties:

C:Program FilesSteamSteamAppsmy accountsourcesdk_contenthl2materialsrcmytextures

C:Program FilesSteamSteamAppsmy accountsourcesdk_contenthl2mpmaterialsrcmytextures

Kasperg, You got me to thinking when you made me realise it probably was not the file format but the location. So as I kept studying on the guidance you gave and it made me realise I had moved the files around quite a bit. In doing so the information in the VMT was no longer correct. All I had to do was put the proper location information in the VMT and Poof just like magic there it was..Thank you very much for your help.
