Where are the textures located?

[Jooce]

When you go to browse the textures in hammer editor, where are these located in the files?

[Luctaris]

depends on the game / mod you are working on, however most valve games have their textures and other game files packed into vpk files inside the game's directory.

Portal 2 or Csgo have one main archive,

Portal 2/portal2/pak01_dir.vpk

(forgot csgos name)

while Half Life 2 has one for textures, one for materials, one for sound and one for models i believe..

You can open the vpks with gfcscape..

The new operation of csgo has all of their assets packed in each bsp file, you can use VIDE to unpack them (or pakrat or gfcscape)

Csgo bsp cant be opened with gcfscape. Vide/BspSource/Pakrat? work.
