Got tired of seeing the same old rebel-girl-tossin-sink-on-poor-combines pic so..i changed it. thought it was erm...refreshing..sharing the joy.

(read teh read-me)

should i click :O lol, nice one

Mine doesn't work though, don't know why, did everything like in the read me.

in your Materials folder you should have a folder called console
in that folder you should have the files in my RAR
relaunch DM
has to work

Different files for 16:12 / 16:10 / 16:9 aspect ratios, iirc.
Edit: Nvm.

Also, my background:

if u look in DM GCF you'll see this exact structure. the game will use from here to "best" fit your setup.
anway....

in PS, grab any image you want to use and stretch it over a 1024 * 1024. save as vtf (u might need photoshop plugin for that)
replace and rename with files.
Leave VMT files as they are - unchanged.
Done.

BTW: using the PS VTF plugins eliminates the need for saving as TGA as in popper's tut. simply save as...vtf your image and you'll be good.

i just made one using pig poppers tutorial thing

came out pretty legit

he looks like a hybrid of neo and combine

vgj. we steals it. vgj

Tools needed
Paint.net

Nems VTF plugin for paint.net

been told how to do this a bunch but never did it.
now i did.
so thanks its cool!!

Paint.net is awesome, I'm glad I can do this now! Didn't have any pretty pics for it but the one I chose temporarily turned out alright...

in the default files in the rar, not the losthope one, but the bathroom of lockdown, anyone else notice G-Man behind a pillar?

DOWNLOAD THIS

Instructions:


1) Unpack the RAR to your desktop
2) READ THE README!!!
3) READ THE README AGAIN!!!
4) AND AGAIN...?
5) Enjoy Your New EYE Menu


P.S. #1

Those of you who are using a custom crosshair just grab the GameMenu.res and put it in your resources folder (as in, don't override the resources folder with the new one but just add the new file)

P.S. #2

goes without saying that as Keefy pointed out before - you can change the server name and ip to what ever you like.
with any questions - shout keefy or myself. (best shout keefy cuz he's so smart)
