Texture pack
« on: November 11, 2010, 04:55:54 am »
I have a question on the texture pack. Im not sure if this can be found anywhere, so why not ask here... Flame me go ahead.

O.K so I download the textures from some site. There probably 30 textures out of 50 right, that I will use. So that other 20 textures what will happen. Like Im trying too say How do I put those 30 textures I want to apply too my map, in the pk3.

Do I just put the textures I used in gtk and go back too the textures in my folder and take them out and put them into the pk3. 

So I will have too find the textures???? If you dont understand what Im trying to say then its cool.   I cant really explain it though.

What I've always done is go into Radiant after packing your .pk3 and using the Find and Replace feature in the texture browser to make sure the map is getting the textures from the .pk3 rather than your .../base/textures/... folder. There might be a more efficient way of doing it. In fact, there likely is. Using Find and Replace, though, is fool proof, if not a bit lengthy.

edit: You might want to make the topic title a bit more on-topic. I thought you were going to be asking about how to release a texture pack, or where to find one, or if there was a popular one available. Try something along the lines of "packing textures into a .pk3", or "textures in a .pk3?". :)

Hope I understood your question.
