HELP editing decals.wad Created 3 years ago2020-11-18 18:50:44 UTC by Endrew5632

So i was trying to translate the half life decals..
But i can't edit decals using wally..whenever i try to compile it, the game don't recognizes it
At first i tought the problem were the edited images
But then
even if i just export and recompile the original vanila decal files,the same problem happens

In the normal half life engine it just becomes invisible
In xash 3d all the textures loses its transparency(meaning its as big white box)
And i can't find any apps like wally to edit wads
I see a lot of people can edit decals no problem
Any ideas on what i am doing wrong?

There are a lot of potential issues when it comes to editing the decals.wad. If you're exporting, editing the textures in some other program like Gimp or Photoshop and reimporting the textures to the wad, you need to make sure the palette isn't updating. The palette for decals are set up in a specific way. You can see this by opening an existing decal and editing the palette.

Yeah some guy just helpws me out..it had something to do with the palettes..thanks!
