Just wondering if its possible to make your own textures for your own materials?
I know its more scene related but very few people check that forum and not to often.

I check, and the answer is yes.
Didn't you dl gotcha's map pack that everyone loves so much? There are a lot of custom materials/textures out there if you wanna make your own map but just wanna steal some textures. Also there are tutorials at the wiki.

and

But sometimes, just looking at a finished mod can be the easiest way to learn, so dl gotcha's or that new winter mountain one or something

Cool... This will be good for the map for my new, non sucking faction I'm making with custom wounds and all that custom stuff you guys seem to like.

Everyone loves custom!
