I couldn't really find a good section to put this, but this seemed the most appropriate... I recently discovered the "material_override" command which has been allowing me to use extra materials then the ones in my 'Material Stool' list. An example of this command is "material_override models/player/shared/gold_player" which makes the Material Stool shoot the material that is put on players after you hit them with the Golden Wrench which I thought was pretty cool. So I came here to ask: Does anyone know any good material paths to use for the "material_override" command? P.S Sorry if this is in the wrong section.
GCFscape is your friend. Or Hammer. Rated late.
Don't rate me late you bully.

You got this information from the thread in general discussion, didn't you? I hate people trying to sound smart when they just get information from somewhere else.
Ahahaha Kani, my offer still stands.

Can anyone tell me exactly how to do this? I opened hammer, picked a texture to use then typed "material_override brick/brickwall056a" in console, but it didn't work. Am I doing something wrong?
Try "material_override materials/brick/brickwall056a" or "material_override models/brick/brickwall056a" Can't be bothered to open GCFscape and check.

Didn't work. I'll install GCFscape. EDIT: So how exactly do I use this to find materials?

You could've guessed it was the wrong section when you saw that this is a sub-forum of "Screenshots and Movies" Wrong section. (could we get a move?) I hate to say I know this guy from in-game, a real douche bag
