(Request) Solid textures

[oaties]

Does a solid texture pack exist? I mean to replace all the default textures with similar, but solid colored textures? Like replace the dirt floor with a solid brown texture or replace the blue tiled floors with a solid blue texture.

If not, does anyone know of a way to mass edit vtf files? It would take WAY too long to go through and edit all of them.

I believe you can edit them using Photoshop with the right plugin installed.

Use Photoshop VTF plugin, record an action of making a solid color texture, save action, file->automate->batch.

There are already a bunch of solid color materials in FortressForever/materials/ff_colors.

For example: ff_color_green.vmt

"LightmappedGeneric"
{
	"%keywords" "FF"
	"$basetexture" "ff_colors/ff_color_white"
	"$color" "{0 255 0}"
	//"$alpha" "1.0"
}

The $color parameter can be any RGB value you like. No need to make a vtf file at all.

So I just edit the other vmt's of FF textures and add

"LightmappedGeneric"
{
	"%keywords" "FF"
	"$basetexture" "ff_colors/ff_color_white"
	"$color" "{0 255 0}"
	//"$alpha" "1.0"
}

and that makes them solid colored?

Replace it, yeah. That would make this color.

Yeah sure. If you want it you can have it, I owe you one for that medic script I stole from you . Not all textures are done, just most on the popular maps (destroy, openfire etc). Unfortunately, most popular maps use custom textures which have to be changed. I also cant change some of the border textures, as they are hl2 textures not FF.

Run the map, put your crosshair on the texture you want to replace, and type mat_crosshair in the console. That will tell you the name of the material. If you make a new .vmt file with that same name, it will override the HL2 texture.

Thank you very much! I never knew about mat_crosshair, I've been decompiling maps and checking in hammer to find the texture... This will also save lots of time
