Textures into my pk3?


(Gothra) #1

Hi, as I am trying to make my pk3 file, I have to import all the textures I used into the file. I found this great tutorial at http://www.pythononline.co.uk/et/tutorial37.htm they say i have to go to textures/’‘mymapname’’ but there is no map named textures. Do I have to make this in GTKradiant or something first?

thx

The folders have to match the names used in radiant when you textured the brushes. When we make new textures we usually put them in a folder called mapname, but it could be yourdogname or what ever you want.

So the paths in ET folders are the same they have to be in the pk3 (goes with all files). Like->

…ET/textures/ultratextures/lollo.tga
In pk3->
textures/ultratextures/lollo.tga

it’s something you were supposed to do when you started.

You have to make a new ET installation which you don’t play on and only use for mapping. Then you set up gtk to work with this install.
After that you make a few folders in your etmain as describes in the first tutorial:

one of them being textures
I am guessing you’re not working on a fresh install so the textures you have used in your map are textures from other custom maps. In this case good luck figuring out where they are :slight_smile:

btw map (dutch) = folder (english)
