for anybody having issues like i did, make sure that you spelled everything the EXACT same, doesn't need to be caps mine is all lowercase but make sure not a letter is out of place, i forgot the S at the end of layers, and that prevented me from getting the proper end result
Here's where I fucked up, I spelt everything right but my image was a .jpg file and I just renamed it to .png, you gotta go to cloud convert and convert the image into a .jpg, I hope that made sense.
bro this one finaly told me to make it a png 😭 now i got a funny mc zombie thank you dude i spent 2 hours trying to fugure this shit out you are a fucking live saver
tysm man, other tutorial videos didnt work cuz they named the last folder, the "custom_texture_blend_layers" folder something different, you earned a sub :)
Maid 3 years ago (edited) PLEASE NOTE: This tutorial only works for the Conscientous Objector! For the other decalable items, replace the filename paper_overlay.png with: flair: flair_template_guide.png clan pride: Clan_Pride_Overlay.png photo badge: Photo_Badge_Overlay.png (case sensitive)
I found a video that helped me in creating a color picture on Medals (Clan Pride in my case). To do this, you need a patcher. Here is the video ua-cam.com/video/VLlS7sbvgvo/v-deo.html
It worked one time for the objector but now i have a problem with the photo badge, i did everything the guide did but it wont work, someone know whats the problem
when I want to apply an image, it says “failed to aply decal try later” even though I’m doing everything correctly. photo 128 by 128 in PNG format in the correct folders Do I have to jump off a bridge to make it work?
So i have an issue which i hope someone knows how to help for flairs and signs this tutorial works perfectly how-ever when it comes to photo badges and clan tags it does not work at all does anyone know how to fix it?
trying to do this with the clan pride and it isn't working. I've checked and everything is spelled exactly correct and I named the image Clan_Pride_Overlay like the description says.
Sure no one told you anything but if the custom file is already there, it will not have the folders needed to make the decal colored, so just add those folders in, it basically takes one step out of this.
every time I try to save it to the custom_texture_blend_layers folder, it just says that pixlr cant save the image because it is a system folder. does anyone know how to fix this?
Pixlr doesn't have permission to save the image within the Steam folders (as they access to hard drive). Just save the image in your pictures folder, and after that move it into the correct folder.
@@-mazy- i cant remember EXACTLY but what i think i did was instead of pressing "enter" i clicked "open" and it worked just fine? that or it was switching the image file size to something smaller
all this problem is is that when you click to open the file it selects the profile picture option behind the window. if you move the window or press open it wont happen
Same procedure, but you have to name the file "flair_template_guide.png". You might also have to adjust the sliders for the color palette a bit, until it's displayed correctly.
the only thing i can say is that make sure the image is 128 by 128 pixels. You can do that by right clicking the image file and going to properties and over to details. Also make sure that the files are properly spelled and capitalized.

whenever I select the imagine it automatically changes back to the option "use your current avatar image" instead of "use an image from your computer" and I can't do anything
If you're on a 64-bit Windows computer: yes. If you're on a 32-bit Windows computer: Search for just "Program Files" instead.

Valve REALLY needs to add full color support in TF2 by default.

OMG DUDE YOUR A LIFESAVER THANK YOU SO MUCH
tysm man, other tutorial videos didnt work cuz they named the last folder, the "custom_texture_blend_layers" folder something different, you earned a sub :)
I took 10 hours to do this and it was because of Custom being spelled Cutom

ive tried it like this 7 times and it dont work, help me sir
So i have an issue which i hope someone knows how to help for flairs and signs this tutorial works perfectly how-ever when it comes to photo badges and clan tags it does not work at all does anyone know how to fix it?
im having the same problem
same
I think this has been patched I’ve done 3 tutorials from other channels and nothing works I guess my NSFW furry png is gonna have to wait
fr. this doesnt work for me either, i've tried literalliy all tutorials there is and read comments, still don't work
I did manage to do it my problem was that I misspelled a folder name
How come my decals are not full color even tho i did everything the tutorial said?
trying to do this with the clan pride and it isn't working. I've checked and everything is spelled exactly correct and I named the image Clan_Pride_Overlay like the description says.
Whenever I name the file paper_overlay with no png at the end, it doesn't show up in the file search. when I add the png the colors don't work. help?
Same issue here
i don't know why but when i get to the point where i put the file destination in it shows for a split second then goes back to the avatar option
What if I have another image? Do I have to name the other one paper_overlay? I can't name it under the same name.
Tryp to put a number instead like paper_overlay 1.2..4
my decals looks so pixelated
do only im have problem what id just dont worke
nice
I have a minor form of dyslexia. what did I do wrong :)
ty :D
well the file and pic was there but no couler
Doesnt let me put it in "system files"
I have been trying for over an hour now, nothing is working. Btw I am using the photo badge instead.
Same, I don’t think it works for the photo badge unfortunately.
question.. what if there is already a custom folder with things?
Sure no one told you anything but if the custom file is already there, it will not have the folders needed to make the decal colored, so just add those folders in, it basically takes one step out of this.
@@Kupsode thanks
Great video, also works on linux
why its not working on me :(
every time I try to save it to the custom_texture_blend_layers folder, it just says that pixlr cant save the image because it is a system folder. does anyone know how to fix this?
I think valve patched it ;(
Edit : nevermind it works

it doesnt work for the flair
I cant find the userstuff folder

@@minmax5yes but how do i get the scripts and items folder in there
@@Unreal_scout also create them, it says this in the video.
sorry for the somewhat unrelated comment but does anyone know how to use the patcher? I get a constant access denied no matter what.

@@cangas727 I ran the patcher as administrator and it worked lol
patcher? whats that tell me please@@Caroline_Alys
i try to do this and it flashes the image, but it immediately switches back to my profile picture. anybody know why?
edit: nvm
how did u fix it?

@@ladyinwight good to know, will remember this for when i need more signs in the future
what if its a flag?
no mater what i try my sigh is still not full color
Me to
so how do i do this for the flair..
Same procedure, but you have to name the file "flair_template_guide.png". You might also have to adjust the sliders for the color palette a bit, until it's displayed correctly.
when i try to do this it uses a different image from my other objector, any fixes?
I don’t have the folders how tf am I suppose to do this
make the folders
for some reason it doesn't work for me, any ideas?
the only thing i can say is that make sure the image is 128 by 128 pixels. You can do that by right clicking the image file and going to properties and over to details. Also make sure that the files are properly spelled and capitalized.
