Dr. Bones ok with it? Also is he willing to give up the raw files, theres a lot of custom stuff there and it may not decompile very good.
If so I can play with em.

He said he was ok with us porting it (because we asked).
Shoot him a pm and ask, I'm sure if he gave us permission he'd be fine with it as long as you don't give it out.

yeah, i told him it would be best to share the .vmf files a few week ago when he said it was ok for somebody else to port them. i'm finishing up fixing bedroom warfare and having a hell of a time finding textures that make it look kinda ok. there are a lot of custom textures in that map and they all get lost in a decompile. if he wants his maps ported or you guys want them ported, the only right way for it to be done is if he shares the .vmf file and the custom textures that he used. otherwise it won't look the same.

don't do him the disservice of porting the maps if he doesn't wish to share the .vmf. they are such gorgeous maps, it would be blasphemous to compile without the textures. yeah, i'm a cranky 'oul fucker. deal with it.

^^ I agree.
I am trying to port ctf_bedrooms and man there is alot of custom stuff in there. I decompiled and have no doors, no beds. LOL I may give up because I don't want to ruin the original version.

Ah right..sorry about that. Been busy on my next three maps (one will be released tomorrow) that I forgot. Who wants the files? And btw GCFscape works fine in extracting all the custom textures and models. ;) [WTF?]Dr_Bones Professional 3D Level Designer, Draco Studios Dr_Bones Crypt

steamapps / yournamehere / halflife2deathmatch / hl2mp / materials /
at least thats where i put it and i can see them in hammer. the only problem is that they are purple and black squares, so i don't know if that is correct of if i'm still missing something. make sure that the models go into the models folder and that you copy both the .vmt and the .vtf files.
if i'm doing something wrong, somebody please feel free to chime in and say otherwise. i'm new to this too and kinda figuring things out the hard way because i can't seem to find a good tutorial.
EDIT: ok so aparently i'm doing something wrong and thats why i see the purple/black checkerboards. i will compare the file destinations to where they are being stored and where hammer is seeing them and try to figure it out.

It goes in your HL2CTF section. So, steamapps / sourcemods / hl2ctf / materials /
Extract to the hl2ctf folder and it should all go into it's right spot. :) [WTF?]Dr_Bones Professional 3D Level Designer, Draco Studios Dr_Bones Crypt
