 Re: Custom textures come out extremely small

I finally got a custom texture working from following a tutorial, but now when I go into a map with the custom texture, the texture appears verrrry small. Its dark, but you can see on the right.

In hammer the texture looks like a regular size. I get this in compile -

KeyValues Error: unexpected CR/LF in string in file materials/customtexture/bricksschool.vmt
lightmappedGeneric,

In my .VMT I have

"LightmappedGeneric"
{
"$basetexture "Customtexture/BricksSchool"
}

Anyone have any ideas? Thank you.

I dont know much about texturing but the default texture scale in hammer is 0.25 so you should make you textures 4 time bigger than you want them to appear [addsig]

The textures are scaled correctly in hammer, but no matter how they are scaled in hammer it comes out the same during the game.

Why do you use that $basetexture? What happens if you leave it empty, or try another one? Tried following the tut here on custom textures?

Leaving it empty and taking out the {} just makes the texture come out black in game. I didnt follow the tut on here, but I looked and it is pretty much the same thing. Any other ideas?

I fixed it.

"LightmappedGeneric"
{
"$basetexture "Customtexture/BricksSchool"
}

basetexture needed another quote after it. The tutorial on here has it without that quote, so someone may want to fix that.
