Ok my custom textures will not work... here's what i have done so far: 1. Made my picture. Saved it as JPEG at 1024 by 1024. Not at great quality but still good. 2. Put it into a zip, then converted it to a .pk3 file using pakscape. 3. Put the .pk3 into my folder: ...textures/virtual/virtual.pk3 4. Attempt to load directory, texture is found but is seen as 'shader image missing' 5. It's pissing me off alot... Could anyone help please?
You need to set the path WITHIN the pk3, and dump the pk3 in base.
got the second bit...
first bit... ?
make a map inside your pk3 file called textures, make an other map in there called virtual(your map name) and place the textures in there. Then put the pk3 file in your gamedata/base folder.
a map called textures... what a physical map...
sorry i am getting confused?
(me being inexperiaenced and all)
Scroll down and find my thread 'Your Custom Texture Questions Answered.' Find what you need there. If it isn't answered in the first post, then look a little further.
Ok i kind of get it...
You make a folder called 'textures' and another folder inside that called 'virtual' and in the 'virtual' folder you place your textures...
Then i make a pk3 file with the folder 'textures' and the folder 'virtual' inside it and the texture inside the 'virtual' folder
textures/virtual/virtual2.jpg
and i put it in base...
then i load directory... C:/Program Files/LucasArts/Star Wars Jedi Knight Jedi Academy/GameData/base/virtualmap.pk3 (virtualmap is the name of .pk3 file)
...nothing...
Ok your good so far but you need to have the "textures/virtual/virtual2.jpg" in your base so like this "gamedata/base/textures/virtual/virtual2.jpg" and also the pk3 that you have so far in the base folder. the in radiant load textures "virtual" and you texture will be there.
so basicaly make the folder set up you had earlyer with the pk3 in it but instead of the pk3 in the "textures/virtual/" put the "virtual2.jpg" in there ok.
hope this helped
you know if its a multiplayer map u dont have to put it in a .pk3. Just take all the textures u need and put them in your base/textures/virtual/ folder. Ok now go to Gtkradient and go to the textures menu and turn off the shaderlist.txt ( think thats what thats called). If you dont have that off it means no custom textures at all. After that just go click on textures and load it up put it in there. Save and what not. Then load up the game, type sv_pure 0 BEFORE u open the map. then you should be good to go
Ok i'll try that...
Cheers guys, those last 2 posts were very clear...
