Help with Applying a custom spawnmenu icon background

[Ha3]

PS: I didn't post in help and support, as this isn't a problem to play the game, it's a customization matter.

Hi!
I've made a custom spawnmenu icon background, to fit with my new derma skin I've found by browsing this forum, but it doesn't seem that I can override gmod default ones.

The problem is that the game stick with the gray ones.
To test, I re-render the icons by right clicking on them on the spawn menu. I even tried to reload all the cache.
I've made multiple attempts:

Firstly, I placed files in garrysmod\garrysmod\materials\VGUI\spawnmenu\ those files are:
bg.vtf
bg.vmt
fg.vtf
fg.vmt
It didn't work.

Then, I've renamed bg.vtf to bg2.vtf and fg.vtf to fg2.vtf, and in bg.vmt and fg.vmt, I edited them to point at the new names.
It didn't work either.

Then, I've made a custom addon with an override property in the info file.
Placed the files in the right place.
It didn't work.

I don't believe you can change the background of spawnicons as the yare automatically generated...Maybe though...

I edited the post to show that >>>I didn't make that skin<<<. Search for "Vista derma" in the forums.

Is there any way to bypass files priorities? Or does it really depend on a source code change?

if they are dynamicly generated for new props, then you'd have to go into the source code and change the gradient color. though there might be a variable for it, i woudn't recomend doing it. maby email garry?
