I'd like to try and edit the death messages and pictures.
Anyone know how i could go about doing this cause i cant find any jpg, bmp or sprite in my half-life directory that i can edit
Thanks.

Hey Burnt! :D

I've not tried editing sprites, but to my knowledge you need to download a couple of programs.

Sprite Viewer (http://www.valve-erc.com/files/?download=/files/resources/sprview.zip)
Sprite Wizard (http://www.valve-erc.com/files/?download=/files/resources/sprwiz.zip)

Sprite Viewer lets you view the .spr files in your dod/sprites directory (you're not seeing any editable bmp's or jpg's because they are in .spr form). And Sprite Wizard allows you to make your own.

And to get you started...

A Tutorial (http://www.thewavelength.net/oldsite/2dart/tutorials/sprites.html)

:D Good luck!

Thanks dillinger but i've got those programs and still cant find the death pictures, i used the viewer to search through all the sprites with no luck. Anyone know the names of the files i'm looking for?
