Kyzer, did you make those "Custom Ratings" That was on your scoreboard, doesn't look like you used silkicons.

Thanks, you do convert them into vmt and vtf files first, right?

Yes. And you need to convert them with the same settings as the originals icons (you can find them in garrysmod.gcf)

How can i view the settings (I have GCF Scape). In the VMt files of the icons ? :S

So These Settings, when converting the Targa to Vmt's and Vmf's?

Code: [Select]

"UnlitGeneric"
{
"$basetexture" "gui/silkicons/anchor"
"$ignorez" 1
"$vertexcolor" 1
"$vertexalpha" 1
"$nolod" 1
}
Are these Instructions right?

1. Convert IMG.png to IMG.tga
2. use Vtex on the IMG.tga with the settings above.

Download VTFEdit, open a original .vtf gmod icon, look settings, remember them, then convert your own icons into .vtf using the same settings.

Thanks alot, i know they have to be targa to convert the image, but then it can't be transparent? Can $translucent do this?

No, use the original .png files, you CAN open them with VTFEdit, iirc you need to do Import not Open. They do appear in a weird background color, but don't worry they are transparent once converted to .vtf and once in game.

The vmt i used looks like that (as original gmod icons):

Code: [Select]

"UnlitGeneric"
{
"$basetexture" "silents_server/scoreboard/icon_pack_1/icon_01"
"$ignorez" 1
"$vertexcolor" 1
"$vertexalpha" 1
"$nolod" 1
}
