"material not found"!

As some of you may know I'm working on a snow map for HL2: DM, and I used a texture I exported from CS: S. I have almost everything working: the texture is visible in Hammer, the texture is visible ingame, the texture automatically downloads to clients when they join the game, however even with full compiles the snow never has any lighting! I'm uh, guessing it has something to do with the

material "customtex/snow01" not found
Material not found!: CUSTOMTEX/SNOW01

error I'm getting near the top of the compile log (nothing else is relevant, I believe). Any ideas of how to get the compiler to recognize the texture? I've tried every location I can think of...the vmf location, the bsp location, the vbsp directory, a couple different directories in the source sdk folder (hl2mp_sample_content and sdkcontent)...and I'm lost. I want my lighting! :razz: I'd appreciate any suggestions...

Have you had a look at this? http://www.snarkpit.com/editing.php?page=tutorials&game=HL2&id=121

Yeah, that's where I got started....can someone tell me all the places I should have a copy of the customtex folder? Because I'm still confused...

This is a shot in the dark, but are you sure you got all of the material information ported over in the vmt file? it may be that you have the image, but none of the material properties such as shaders etc.

I just extracted it from CS: S and modfied it a little...it says


LightmappedGeneric
{
"$basetexture" "customtex/snow01"
"$surfaceprop" "snow"
}


So...??

Nevermind, the SDK update fixed it.
