• How to REPLACE the purple checkerboard texture
    23 replies, posted
First off, I know what purple checkers mean and why they are there. But what I want to do is replace the purple checkerboard texture with something less annoying. So what I want to know is where are the actual materials for the purple checkerboard that I can replace. There has to be a vtf/vmt somewhere doesn't there? Any help is appreciated.
Afaik its kindof a hardcoded material.
Try engine/debug. Just be sure to use UnlitGeneric in the vmt, so it works on brushes, models and sprites.

[QUOTE=J!m;32932326]Black hole[/QUOTE] XD Thanks, I'm going to look in the engine directory like kukiric suggested now.
Don't forget you have to create the vmt and vtf unless you extract the originals with GCFscape

You're going to need to actually fix whatever is broken and giving you the checkerboard texture. Replacing the checkerboard texture itself is a stupid idea and won't help you at all.

search missingtexture.vtf or .vmt
If there is 2 textures that really annoy me it's the purple checkerboard, and the default (clean) hammer one, which is highlighted here: [URL="http://developer.valvesoftware.com/w/images/8/82/Hammer_Texture_Browser.jpg"]http://developer.valvesoftware.com/w/images/8/82/Hammer_Texture_Browser.jpg I[/URL] can no longer view that as a normal brick texture. It's more like a dev texture to me.
But what if the BLACK HLOE DISSAPEARRS? [sp]universe.exe has stoped woltking[/sp]
debug/debugempty
i thought it was called null?
