Hello I was trying to add a texture to a vpk file ,after that when I go in hammer there is the texture file but there is no image
#Adding texture to vpk file
jovial frigate
you need to setup your game in VMTeditor
paths are relative to your game directory
they always start in gamedirectory/materials/
so you cannot have a path that starts at your desktop
also there's no need to put anything in a VPK
somber barn
why would you put textures in vpk btw?
jovial frigate
you can either laod assets through gameinfo or just slap them in your gamedir
somber barn
doesn't you just compile you game folder vpk.exe and it packs you content there
but that's for mods/standalone games

I tried to put them in material but nothing showed
jovial frigate
because your VMT path is wrong
put stuff in the correct directory and make your paths correct
acoustic gazelle
ok I will try thanks
somber barn
they always start in ``gamedirectory/materials/``
subfolder of game missed?
somber barn
like <maingamefolder>/<game>/<materials> nah?
jovial frigate
ketal dont be pedantic please
somber barn
oh yea welp wmteditor does it auto
acoustic gazelle
It didn't change
somber barn
$basetexture "mur_cr"
somber barn
also, make a subfolder in materials for better use
because it can cause bugs sometimes if its in root materials directory
so like materials\custom\mur_cr
jovial frigate
just do this
acoustic gazelle
acoustic gazelle
I did both
jovial frigate
dont put your files loose in materials
somber barn
you have it though
jovial frigate
create a subfolde
like ketal said
and dont rely on the browser in hammer for preview
place it on a brush
see if its still broken
acoustic gazelle
jovial frigate
how can you ask that
jovial frigate
acoustic gazelle
I don't use that
jovial frigate
this is vmteditor mate
acoustic gazelle
my bad
How do I check
and on hammer the wall is not in file/mur_cr
I found the mistake
I did not have the gmod path in gameinfo.txt
thank you
jovial frigate
nice
