quick mapping question.

[darpeyface]

lets start with this-i was taught how to map, by a guy who has worked with source for 15 years. i know what im doing (for the most part)

also real quick that description of the mapping section no we dont know how to make water brought a smile to my face LOL

ok anyways, how do i make a map picture like some maps have in gmod, like in the singleplayer menu, some levels have pictures insted of the fuckin gray lines.

if you need more clarification i can post a picture.

If you are already familiar with texture/material creation, [URL="http://gamebanana.com/tuts/5996"]this should come in handy[/URL].
[quote]Step 1: Pick a map that has no map icon Step 2: Select the camera & then take a screenshot Step 3: Go to your screenshots folder [D:\Games\Garrys Mod\garrysmod\screenshots] Step 4: Find the screenshot you took & press Ctrl + X Step 5: Put it in the maps folder & rename it [Ex: gm_bigcity0000.jpg to gm_bigcity0000.jpg Step 6: Make sure its set to png or it won't work[/quote]
