download wally (http://www.telefragged.com/wally/)

-using photoshop of equivalent take your image and make an indexed (256 color) saved as a bitmap image with a maximum of 10752 pixels, divisible by 16. to save you the trouble the best size, in my experience, is 112 x 96 pixels.

-create the spray by opening wally and going to wizard > HL color decal. don't worry about specifying your half life default folder, just choose desktop.

-rename the pldecal.wad to "tempdecal.wad" and cut & paste in mod directory in steam and you're done.

i named wildwad as pl and temp decal and put them both in my FA folder had no affect. any ideas?

[oldschool]

remember it's saved as "tempdecal.wad" and should go in

/steam blah blah blah/half-life/firearms/ <-----------



if you read my first post i said 112x96 is the size you should use.

your current wad in your attachment is 240x336.

your avatar is 144x244.

moved to custom folder

Also, if you're trying to make the spray for a Source game, you can just put it in that format (color-wise and dimension-wise), and point Source towards the pic, wherever it is. You only need Wally if you're trying to custom-spray for a HL1 game.

Thanks for the start of this thread, i had the same "?".

[waisted menkey]

in order for others to see it doesn't there have to be a server side setting toggled? i used to know how to check if it was or not but that was a long time ago

[Lord Kelvin]

Most servers should have it set anyways, since custom sprays are quite popular. But some probably don't since they might have anti-pr0n stances.
