You need to create new folder in the ../base/textures/YOURNAME/

place all the textures in there and load up the folder using Textures, YOURNAME, the images will then apear in the box below.
If you are going to be making a MP map you need to place the textures into a pk3, use Pakscape to to that, and do it that way.

Come on, Anakin. That also goes for SP. Maybe you just have antipathies against single player, because you can't do your AOTCTC SP... Just joking.

For testing you don't have to put textures into a pk3 in SP. In MP if you don't pack them you have to enter "sv_pure 0" into the console every time before you start your map.

That's why Anakin said that.

Ok i'm a n00b, i have the jpg, i can pack it in a .pk3 do i have to do stuff w/ paths etc? this is a mp map btw. speak to me as if i was an unborn fetus and you had to explain it.

Then the first thing you have to learn is the using of forum search.

There's a button for it at the top of this window. You can find more explanation than you want.

It's even faster than we are in answering.

Right the folder paths

/
/maps
/textures/NAMEOFMAP
/scripts
/shaders
/sounds
/music
/
/levelshot

Hope that helps

The search thing has proberly been disabled due to the high bandwidth the forums are taking still.

Hehh, every time one of you mentions that the Search is disabled I check it and it always works.

Anakin · 05-02-2003, 05:34 AM

Typical

LOL... Happens to me once in awhile though... (Search being "so-called" disabled)
