I am really sorry to be a pain in the ass, but okay so baseically, I create a .bmp then make it into a sprite using a converter. Now I have the sprite and where ever I place it, it will follow people around, so I think I should do the easy way to do it using stripper2, looking at stripper2 I don't really understand it that well, but continueing on I have 2 more questions 1. How does the increase of the sprite happen ? Right now I am using the csnation sprite wizard to convert a bmp into a sprite, except the maximum size of the bmp can only be 256 pixels in any direction, and in the server the thing looks much bigger 2. How would I put it in every single map, would I need to have like a custom file coresponding with every map ? 3. Thanks a lot for your help 4. Can you please tell me the easiest way put it in and position it, I am going to create a sprite using the sprite wizard and all I want to do is put it in the air near each of the spawn points

when adding banners i like to make a banner model and put it on a wall it looks like a part of the map itself.
also a little help with ripent you can decompile the map then add/remove items in it then look at the .map and extract the entity from it
ripent is a fun thing to mess with for example i converted de_dust to a DOD bombing map -- "We came to one conclusion very quickly after reviewing the numbers: Mac people who scream that their Apples are faster than PC's are simply so full of crap, they could double as septic tanks." -MAXIMUM PC Magazine _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds_linux
