lame background?
do you mean the silver hl2 logo? if so that defeats the whole point of this thread... to show community support of hl2.net.

or do you mean the dust/bricks behind the spray? if so thats the world texture, not the spray.. it has alpha channels (transparencies)
those are pics from ingame (De_dust mostly)

edit: btw welcome to the forums
 
Could you possibly make me one if you have anyy time, not to picky, anything funny, thank you
 
SWEETNESS!!!
that is beautiful!thank you soo much!!
damn dude,you rock eternally in my book!
when I saw it I said "HOLY S**T!! That kicks so much ass!"and laughing with glee
to which the family began wondering about my sanity(again)
its like you "saw" the exact image in my mind.
again thank you for taking your time to do mine and everyone elses!
 
Hey Mr Redundant, why don't you try making a tutorial on this? I know there are like, 2 others floating around the net. But one is incredibly old, and the other is basically about alpha blending and backgrounds. It would be cool if you could make one which uses up to date programs (Like photoshop CS, perhaps?), and which covers everything from backgrounds to exporting, to links to funny pictures perhaps?

I could help :D

Im not really that great at writing tutorials, perhaps once I am done with all the sprays.. but honestly the best tutorial is the one in my sig (it is clickable) by CraigWeb.. Its pretty straightforward.

For people that use Photoshop CS (like me), I found this post to be incredibly useful...


It turns out, it's not the easiest the way to do it, but it's how I learned. :p Once you've gone through it once, you can figure out the "shortcuts"...
 
Mr. Redundent:

these are awsome. you are truley a gift to the community. :p (the gidft that keeps on giving? ;) )

1) If you have a chance, you could make me a version of the silver one that just have an embossed black "X" in the middle instead of the lambada?

2) As for the US servers: myself and dedatorv regualarly play in the Texas server, and once you join, people will join... catch me on irc if you want to start a game!

Thx!

btw, what is it?

its a Dark Archon I found on the net, very well drawn, your avatar is a protoss Archon so I figured it would be fitting.. plus it looked cool.

I did you two versions because the embossed x was ok, but I thought you might like the other, matching silver. (take your pic, or use both or neither, whatever suits your fancy :) )
the rar includes both files
 
Does anyone know how to convert the vmt files to tga or somthing I would like to edit the originals..
 
How about a spray that looks just like a hole in the floor lol, black. Anyway, I stil don't understand where the hell you get pictures like that hat, and that cat from. Can you enlighten me?

google, some I draw, others I splice, depends how lazy I am.. like theres one Im working on right now thats a tattoo engraned into metal, but that one is gonna take a while.

@ Z|Insane, I dont think you can... thats the exact reason I supply .TGAs instead of .vtms

The VTF files are the textures... and, yes, you can extract TGA images out of VTF's. There is a file called "vtf2tga.exe" that comes with the tools people used to make sprays during the beta.
 
Keyword VMT files 0CybrManO thanks for trying though. Seems about Redundant.

I just put an old spray on top of it (since I'm a lazy bastard)...

GhostBusters.png


I might change the text to something that better fits the theme. OH, and now that I'm on the subject of ghostbusters, I can't forget to do a spray version of that "GABE PUFT" picture I posted a while back!

NOTE: The image is a 32-bit PNG so if the background isn't transparent... blame Internet Explorer.

hehe i like this one :thumbs:

I'm not guessing... I'm telling you.

VMT = plain text used to tell the engine which shaders and properties to use on a texture
VTF = the actual textures

Look through the threads on making sprays... they should have a link to a ZIP or RAR file that contains (along with the programs for making sprays out of TGAs) the program used to extract TGAs from VTF files.

When did I say you were guessing?
C:\Program Files\Valve\Steam\SteamApps\Username\counter-strike source\cstrike\materials\VGUI\logos\UI

I do not see any VFT's there. How exactly can I extract them! How do they run without the actuall VTF files? Or can you show me where they are?
 
it should be in
C:\Program Files\Valve\Steam\SteamApps\Us ername\counter-strike source\cstrike\materials\VGUI\ logos\

(not UI)

I didn't get any pms from you bro.

http://www.undertheinfluence.org/~mrredundant/cs:s/2/logos/DrFreemanport.rar

put these in your
C:\Program Files\Steam\SteamApps\*your e-mail*\counter-strike source\cstrike\materials\VGUI\logos\


dir.
hope that fixes things up for you bro.

I will have to work on further Sprays on monday though...

Im probably going to be sloshed outta my mind saturday and sunday (my best friend just turned 21)
 
Wiegje said:
Could I get one too? :eek: Pretty please? :)
Click to expand...
Of course my good man, the more the merrier :)

as I said though all new sprays will have to wait until monday, because the better part of this weekend I will be plastered/inebriated/sloshed.

@Spaz: will do bro

Any chance you can take the Blue guys head and make it come through the middle?

Would appreciate it very much.
 
Hehe hi there Ripper. I took the liberty of trying to make one for you, because I need practice. I have made two versions, one small and one that's bigger. Here they are:

hl2netripperbig.png

Big

hl2netripperroo.png

slightly smaller version

I actually prefere the bigger one myself because it's tounge slightly overlaps the "H" on halflife2.net. I have no hosting yet, but if Mr. Redundant doesn't mind, maybe he could.

edit: He will most likely make a higher quality version for you, as I'm still learning :)
 
Haha, yours is far better, Mr redundant. Looks like you even added a drop shadow to it. wow. I'm gonna test mine to see what it's like. Good work.

On a side note: How do you clean it up so well? Do you zoom in increibly far or something and use a 1 point brush?

By the way, I finally have found a provider: www.yousendit.com It's alright.
 
I use Merc's. Like the color shifts. Some of you might've seen me spraying it already ;)

I can't get pixartist's zip-file to work though. The game won't recognize the vmt & vtf files at all. Tga works though. Do I have to convert first or something? It says that it supports the file types though. Weird.
 
Though I was going to be able to finish faster :angry:

I couldn't convert it sorry.

thats exactly what I do.
 
Thanks mr.redundant, its awesome... its weird how you knew i was canadian.. i love the skulls.. nj
 
Bah, I can't get my spray to work properly.

I tried making a spray that looked like it was just a hole in the ground, so I can spray it and it would look funny. But when I tested it the transparency still seemed to be stuck on the HL2 logo (the file I based it off to get the right size). So I went into channels in my photoshop, and turned the HL2 logo into the hole shape I wanted. Went back to CSS, imported it again, and it was still in the shape of a HL2 logo! Grr.

Where are the transparency settings, Mr Redundant? because the channels bit doesn't work.

it is just the "Alpha 1" channel

white = visible
black = invisible

so you want to paint all your visible parts white.
shades of grey = varying degrees of transparency.
