Textures have to be added in two places:jayson3080 wrote:I am having problems with textures. I followed the instruction on how to add textures, but when i open sandbox, they do not show up in f2 under textures. any suggestions..
1. In package.cfg in your textures folder
2. In your {name of map}-art.cfg file, where they should be numbered sequentially starting AFTER the standard list of textures
Textures do not have to be 512 x 512. Nor do they have to be square. The key is to keep the pixel size a multiple of 2 in either direction (I have some I've created that are 128 X 512, and others that are 64 X 64). There are many programs that will re-size your pictures. I happen to use GIMP on a Debian Linux machine (GIMP also has a Windows port), but I have used PaintShop Pro under Windows in the past (the far, distant past), and I believe that Photoshop will do it, too.jayson3080 wrote:Also do the textures has to 512x512 in order for them to work in sandbox... if so what program is there that changes the size of the pics
