Hey guys,
Im trying to make grafitti on the walls in my map .. But I havent found a proper way to do it yet.. Either they stick out like boxes, they arent there at all or they are multiplied 300 times all over the wall!! :S
How do you guys do it?

Use either the Decal or the Overlay tool. Works fine for me.

Oh I'd agree to that. Any time I have questions, I ask Bill. He knows hammer alot better than I do. Most of the time, questions I get are pretty basic, but for advanced stuff Bill is the man!

Or you can ask me. No matter what you ask i can't find correct answer :D Awesome
here's something i did earlier, I would have no idea how to get it onto a map, asked SpikedRocker or someone else who's knowledgeable in mapping.

Daze, if you want, you can make a graffiti with your own name and I'll add it to my map:001_tongue:.
Tho, make it a texture yourself please, I'm too lazy xD
what do you mean, like make the background myself? i can do that i think, but then wouldn't you have to match the same background with a bit of your map :S

Just make the background transparent, not a solid color.
lmao, i've tried but i'm clueless as how to do it.
MS Paint's default is a white background, i cant make it no colour.

You need to use photoshop to do that.
i see, i have photoshop but ima complete noob with it tbh.
any chance of a point in the right direction?

Use the quick mask tool. Create an alpha channel. If you google search those two terms you should be able to find a good tutorial on it.
