You talk about making custom levels appear in map list in menu?

[Lossy 1968]

No, he means ranks e.g lvl 1-55

bsp files have nothing to do with this, and when creating new materials, you dont make the .iwi file yourself :dave:

 

how about learn the basic stuff first? :kingdave:

i meant do i have to make the targa(.tga) files for the asset manager to make iwi files?

yes, you need an image file (.dds, .tga or .jpg(?)) in order to make an .iwi file

 

for rank icons (and other 2d materials):

 

asset manager -> material -> new entry -> name it -> set material type to 2d -> click the ... button next to color map -> select your image -> select appropriate blendfunc -> save the .gdt file (asset manager file) -> hit f10 -> go to cod4\raw\images to find the converted .iwi

 

also, if you are using .tga files, in photoshop:

 

save as 24-bit if the image has no alpha channel

save as 32-bit if the image has alpha channel (usually hud icons, rank icons etc)
