Question

Spray logos look great. How do I get one for myself?

Answer

Half Life Engine There are two kinds of spray logos: Those available through the Customize Menu (*.bmp) and Custom sprays (*.wad) Both types are sprayed by the key selected in the Options --> Keyboard menu or by adding the command bind "key" "impulse 201" in your config file. The regular greyscale logos (*bmp) are found in the Half-Life/logos or dod/logos directories. The *.wad files are placed in the root dod or valve directories. Steam has changed the spray logo set up Your favourite pldecal.wad files will still work. All you need to do is rename them to tempdecal.wad. Now right click on the wad file. Select Properties and Read Only. This will prevent the file from being overwritten if you enter the Options Menu. Making your own Custom Logos is very simple. All that is required is any simple image processing program such as MSPaint or Jasc Paint Shop Pro and a program that will convert the *bmp file to a *wad file. Wally or the Decal Converter ver. 1.3 do the trick with ease. There are many on line tutorials available to make both colour and grey scale logos. Here are a few: The LogoWarehouse BubbleModOrg Cyber-Rat.Com These sites also make premade colour logos available for download. An internet search will find you many other sources.
