Is there tool to create .wad files?

[11pixels]

I want to edit the textures, and I already did, but I can't put them in a .wad file, because Google decided to NOT give me results about it. All the results are either "convert .wad to half life source blah blah" or counterstrike stuff, nothing of what i need; plus "Wally" thing is not working it's just broken.)

HLBox17b does wads as well.

SLADE can create .wads, but it's made for Doom and not for Half-Life. It may work.

I use HLBox17b its a great tool, apart from installing maps with a single click, it also makes wads, and packs your map along with required assets..


Automatic Installation of maps (zip, rar, 7z):
Do not waste time! Install hundreds of maps in seconds without having to worry about files location. HLBox17b do it for you and you can be sure that the map function properly!

Maps Packs creation:
Create a zip archive of your map by incorporating automatically all the necessary resources (textures, sounds, models, sprites, skies, etc ...), and only them!

Extract gcf and vpk files :
View and extract the files included in the steam gcf and vpk files.

Check for textures
View and export the textures included in the wad or bsp (wadincude) files.

Clean steam folder
Clean in one click your steam folder and delete unneeded or duplicates files!

Yeh take a look at the halflife.wad, you need to prefix them with + and then number them like this

+frame1
+frame2
+frame3

No, in main maps, c1a0, c1a0a, c1a1 etc

if you install the half-life sdk in steam Library > tools it has a couple of hammer files, I think c1a0.rmf has animated textures

When you do map c1a0 u see a door in front of you. I edited the halflife.wad texture, but ingame it remains the same. There's no explaination other than the bsp files use their own textures.
How do I edit the main maps textures?
