Point Entity Sprite Pack for GoldSrc v1.1

Point Entity Sprite Pack for GoldSrc v1.1

Custom sprites for all important point entities of the GoldSrc engine. Gives the map a cleaner look, makes it more clear and drastically reduces the number of big, pink boxes in the editor.
Tested with Jack on Windows 11, though might also work in other editors/OS.

How to:

• make a backup of sprites.pak file in your J.A.C.K. directory, where jack.exe is located
• replace the sprites.pak in the J.A.C.K. directory with the one included in this zip
• open the FGD of your game/mod
• look for a point entity you want to use the sprites for and replace the coordinates, color and size information with the sprite path

- for example
- old FGD entry: @PointClass base(Targetname, Angles) size(-16 -16 -16, 16 16 16) = monstermaker : "Monster Maker"
- new FGD entry: @PointClass base(Targetname, Angles) iconsprite("sprites/monstermaker.spr") = monstermaker : "Monster Maker"

• repeat this with all entities, you want to use the sprites with - you can get the sprite names from the screenshot in this zip

If you want to use a sprite for a different entity, you can open sprites.pak with pakscape and copy/rename said sprite.
If the sprite for your favorite entity is missing, just message me on Discord (simbl, I'm usually in the TWHL Discord Server) and I will include it.

Happy mapping!
