im working on some custom flags using a combination of photoshop and hlmv. ive gotten one to work on a custom map, but not on the regular maps. my questions are:

1) where do i save these flags?
2) what default flag files do i overwrite when saving?
3) will i have to overwrite files for each individual map?

any help would be greatly appreciated, as i am relatively new to this.

it should also be noted that i searched the forums for related topics and found one that said to put them in the mapmodels folder, which i did, but it hasnt worked.

should be "flags.mdl" in your models/mapmodel folder

ive seen a few different flag.mdl files.

aflag.mdl
gflag.mdl
bflag.mdl
wflag.mdl

americanflag.mdl
naziflag.mdl
whiteflag.mdl
britishflag.mdl

also,

aflag_sch.mdl
bflag_sch.mdl
gflag_sch.mdl
wflag_sch.mdl

which of these are the default flags which i should save over?

Flags.mdl

forgive me for being a n00b, but...how do i save all 4 different flags under the same name? or should there be a flags.mdl folder?

they are all supposed to be in "flags.mdl". if you have them in a different model then export the textures and import them into the flags.mdl replacing the coresponding textures

hey, im a dope. so what im going to do is ask this...pretend as if everything i posted before was gone, and help me from here.

i have 4 flag models. US, UK, nazi, and a white flag that i have made in photoshop. walk me through what i need to do from there cause im just confused.

i appreciate this help, sorry bout the stupid questions, but im new to this, if you couldnt already tell.:confused:

Youll need the flags.mdl once you have that you can import the textures you have made with hlmv.
