Adding Decals to Maps.
Difficulty: Advanced |
| Category: CS:S > Server Administration | Author(s): kfceater |
Ok: First off I figured all this out on my own so I don't have it all fully understood but the thing is that if you do it exactly as i explain you can have you clans decals on your all the default maps. I will make a tutorial later on how to get coordinates on custom maps.
You will need VTFedit
Make a logo for your clan in Photoshop (i think paint may work but idk, if you don't have it ask a clan mate)
Make sure its small (i mean pixelwise, it should probably be less than 250)
Save it to your desktop and right click on it and open with VTFedit.
It should open up in VTFedit, if a little window with a ton of options pops up... just press OK (I don't know what that does either)
Press file--->save as and save it as whatever you want. Then go to tools and press create VMT.
Open up the VMT, using VTFedit of course. Where it shows the basetexture change it to this:
"$basetexture" "decals/custom/mani_admin_plugin/pic'sName.vtf"
Now for putting it on your server :)
Go to
cstrike/materials/decals/custom/mani_admin_plugin/
Upload your .VMT and .VTF, mine were called ar2.vmt and ar2.vtf so if i use those as an example replace it with your decals name :)
Next go to
cstrike/cfg/mani_admin_plugin/
Open up the document called decallist.txt now scroll down to mani_logo, and we are going to replace mani's logos with yours :O
So change everything to your decal's name, remember mine were called ar2 you need to change it to yours.
(it looks messed up down there fpsb wont let the lines go too long so its scrunched up)
"decallist.txt"
{
// List decal textures to be available for custom effects via ma_effect
// and for the map adverts.
//
// The first label is the name you use within the ma_effect command and ma_decal to reference
// the decal texture, the second is the location of the decal itself
// You can view the decals from the Valve Hammer Editor.
"lambda" "decals/lambdaspray_2a"
"mani_logo" "decals/custom/mani_admin_plugin/ar2"
"downloads"
{
// Add your auto downloads here, each player will be forced
// to download this content. Try to make your own decal filenames to
// be unique as possible as your download will NOT overwrite an
// existing file with the same name.
//
"mani_logo.vmt" "materials/decals/custom/mani_admin_plugin/ar2.vmt"
"mani_logo.vtf" "materials/decals/custom/mani_admin_plugin/ar2.vtf"
}
}
Edit it to look like that, and save it.
Annnnd You're done!!!
I will make a later tutorial on how to get coordinates of custom maps so you can get your decals in there too :) |
