Okay, i've been trying for months to try and learn how to install a custom spray onto BB, DoD, CS, every HL mod that I play. i still have yet to accomplish it. Can anyone help me ouut and post a detailed step by step instruction thingy? I mean, REALLY detailed! Thanks a million!

Okay, you know the file Tempdecal.wad in for example, half-life/bb/ or half-life/CS? Well, if you already have one you're planning to use and it isnt named Tempdecal.wad but it's still the same format (.wad) then just rename it to tempdecal.wad and overwrite it.

EDIT: Eh. Tried to put the picture up again but noes. The forum doesnt allow dynamic linking. Okay, I sent the picture on how to install a spray. Check your PM.

and set the properties to read only or it will be overwritten by a default spray

okay...I'll have to try again when i get home.

And I can't get to the picture because of these stupid school filters. I get home around 4 pm, so i'll check it then.

Thanks, both of you!


Edit: wait, wait, wait...That's the problem! I've tried so many programs but for some reason, it won't let me make the picture a wad file. I've treid wally, but that's really complicated to me, and i don't know crap about it, and HL Logo creator says something about not being able to find the directory... So really, i guess my problem is with the logo programs. What do I do to fully utilize and use wally?

Use wally to make a .wad file with your custom spray in it (and nothing else) and save it as pldecal.wad. Put this in your BB folder and you have a custom spray. However, it will get overwritten if you ever go into the options menu.

umm, to use it today with the new scheme, save it as tempdecal.wad and make the properties read only

That....that's it? It's that damn simple?

CRAP. I hate those websites that make it all complicated...

Thanks peeps!

Edit: Wait, wait, wait...again...how do I save it "in" or "as" a WAD file? Wally is only giving me the option of saving it as a jpeg!

Edit: Holy crap this is confusing...okay, I have the image on my screen, and opened it using wally. Right now, it is a jpeg file. Now, how do I "put it in" a wad file? Or create one for that matter. Do i go to the Edit option up top, the image option, what? I'm serious, with me, you really need to dumb it down. I need baby instructions.

http://users.erols.com/bribe/sprays/ Try there.

the king FAQ/site about custom decals

um, okay...firstly, thank you bert, you just gave me a jump in my erm, "quest"

One problem remains...

Wally has made it a WAD, and I replaced it and all, thanks to the directions of bert (applause) However, in-game, when I spray it, it appears as just a brown square.

When wally makes it a wad file, should I be able to see my picture in the "pldecal.wad" window, or should it be just a brown box?

Hello.......?

I...I still need help with this....

save it as 256 8 bit color, open it with wally rename the actual pic, right click rename, to {logo then save the whole thing as tempdecal.wad

Kk, I'll try that when I get home. Thanks.


Edit: Wait, wait, what do you mean 256 8 bit color? I thought it was one or the other?
