local mat3 = Material( "phoenix_storms/wood" )

function drawMaterial(pos,size,material)
	render.SetMaterial( material )
	render.DrawQuad( pos+Vector(0,0,0), pos+Vector(0,size,0), pos+Vector(size,size,0), pos+Vector(size,0,0), Color( 255, 255, 255 ) )
end

hook.Add( "PostDrawOpaqueRenderables", "test", function()


	for x=0,7 do
		for y=0,7 do
			--drawMaterial(Vector(-256+(y*64),-256+(x*64),10.1),64, mat3)
			--render.SetLightmapTexture( mat3:GetTexture() )
			drawMaterial(Vector(0, 0, 0)+Vector(y*64,x*64,0),64, mat3)
		end
	end
end )

Pretty sure you are using the wrong shader for this. You must be using UnlitGeneric, not VertexLitGeneric.

tried this, dosen't work
i am doing it client side, however i am not sure if the material is a .png file as the wiki says
"Only works with .png files, and only clientside"

local mat3 = Material( "phoenix_storms/wood", "unlitgeneric" )

that's not how it works. You need to create a whole new material.

i just went to download gcfscape and found the file this it what it says.

.. so i don't think that not using "VertexLitGeneric" is the problem

"VertexLitGeneric"
{
	"$basetexture" "phoenix_storms/wood"
	"$surfaceprop" "metal"
	"$bumpmap" "phoenix_storms/wood_bump"
	"$envmap" "env_cubemap"
	"$normalmapalphaenvmapmask" 1
	//"$basealphaenvmapmask" 1
	"$envmapcontrast" 1
	"$envmapsaturation" 1
	"$envmaptint" "[ .3 .3 .3 ]"
	"$model" 1
	"$halflambert" 1
}

Yes, what it says is "VertexLitGeneric".

What you want is "UnlitGeneric".

oh fuck my bad, btw just found a pic on google then made a material with VTFEdit

this works aswell :O

"LightmappedGeneric"
{
	"$basetexture" "unicorn/wood"
}
