Thank you for making the segments of your tutorial fast and not 20 minutes of rambling on about unimportant stuff. Really wish there were more people like you
Dude I think you've saved me hundreds of hours with your tutorials, I was about to install after effects to save TGAs with transparency when all u need to do is check the box on PNGs, holy shit
Great tutorial, I actually googled for "tophattwaffles animated texture" in order to find this when I neede it :p! Just one thing i thought about - you're calling Decals for "detail textures", and the decal tool for "detail brush". This may really, really, confuse people, since a detail texture is something completely different :P
Hi, is there anything wrong with animated textures? I made an animated TV noise texture with 4 frames maybe 2 years ago, and it worked then. Now, the exact same vtf+vmt won't animate at all in-game. Not even when I load up the map I used it in back when I made the texture. does it still work for everyone else? Trying to figure out if there's an issue with source or my graphics card (or something else)
+Reaven Clan The $basetexture is correct, and the proxy parameters are following the video. The VTF+VMT are both embedded into the map, and has been for the past 2 years and worked back then. Now, in the exact same map with the exact same embedded materials, it's just showing the first frame of the animation.
@gazm2k5 Do you mean, say you put HI it looks like IH? Like it's mirrored? Try making usng the texture application tool, then choose "face" instead of "world" or vise versa. One or the other should fix the problem.
Hi TopHat, you can please paste the contents of the .vmt? I keep getting purple,black checkers my texture isnt showing up, I just di this with your video still doesn't work, thanks "LightmappedGeneric" { "$basetexture" "cont3logo2" "$translucent" 1 "$decal" "1" "$decalscale" "1.0" }
nice tut but u got some problems. i made a normal texture but for some reason i wont work. i made 5 textures and 2 of them are broken when i put it in the VTFedit Eight bit alpha is on. on the textures that work its not on.
oh , theres something to do with the img before we get to this tut , photo shop i no have , and how to do what is not in the tut with the img ?????????????????????
I'm not sure if you know about trigger_look, but when you look at something. Something else happens. So can I make a texture animate itself when you look at it then go back to normal?
I made my Photoshop new background "transparent" mode and i created a new layer to paint my "LOL". On desktop my LOL is transparent like yours, on Windows Picture and Fax Viewer it is also transparent, BUT on VTFedit it has, and saves, as a white background not squares (transparent) background, WHY? How did u make your "LOL" on photoshop? Oh and the animation does not work!?? I'm using Source Engine MP - Counter Strike Source - Hammer.
Lots of pep yelling and crying about "nu nu ı dont want to buy Photoshop nuu" so dont buy download it ı dont think its hard oh and dont even reply this to me "ı dont like downloading illegal things" well if you don like it so *cough* good luck with paying 120$
Heres a SUPER simply guide on how to get any CC product easily free.appnee.com/amt-emulator/ Adobe will even realse updates for your pirated version, haha
@rocketrascal34 can you say/show how i have to add the custom textures to a server because in this moment my friend only got the "Missing Texture" at the whole map because the client isn't downloading the textures.

Dang, a 2009 video actually helped me for once. No way
thats hammer for you, not really updated since like 2005
the best youtuber video. helped me a lot to import images in csgo hammer congratulations!
Old Tophatwaffle intro is mad crazy!
Thank you so much for doing this. Straight to the point and covers enough to help get us started.
That intro is very cool!
Why do my textures appear in hammer normally, but when I apply them to a surface they are flipped?

@Darkfield2
it's also possible to set alpha in the VMT file using $alpha (look it up on the valve developer community)
Very helpful video, ythankyou!
how do you make those boxes on your dekstop that have icons in them?

+Mornedil open wmt and check the "$basetexture" "location"

Hmmm, this is all well and good for wall sprays, but can this be applied to a texture that goes on a Gmod prop or Ragdoll?
Nice tutorial! Thanks man!
*_Great Intro_*

How do I include an animated gif I found on the internet, to animate in my map.
Why don't you just paste all the code in the description, or even just make a download link for the files?
You can be set to slowly changed?
