ARE THEY IN ANY SUBFOLDERS?!
like say [example]C:\games\RedFaction\user_maps\textures\syphstextures[/example] this will NOT work. they must be directally in the textures folder like MF said.

anyway, your post said to me, that you have 1 door.tga in a folder and about 100 others in a folder in my C:\Games\Red Faction\User Maps\Textures folder.

So your Textures folder looks something like this...



If it does, and they still won't show in RED after you have closed and reopened the editor, then I have no other suggestion other than to reinstall Red Faction.

If you choose to do that, then make sure you back-up all your maps, textures etc elsewhere

Do not use such generic terms as Door.tga to name your textures. Maybe there is a default texture called door.tga.

Always use a prefix...

Example... sy_door1.tga
Or if you need a certain material type for your textures then use... mtl_sy_door1.tga (metal door)

And Goober, English may not be his mother tongue so give him a break!!! Can you imagine how frustrated the poor guy must be?

Sounds like a movie...

I hate how picky RED is.

Not really.I uninstall RF and then installed it back and the client mods work fine.Just when you want to make the vpp for the maps in the editor wont work.

Make sure they are in the correct .tga format, which should be uncompressed. Use a converting program and try converting a texture from your folder to uncompressed .tga and see if it works.
A common mistake people make when trying to design something completely foolproof is to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools.
