Missing texture for weapon mod

[dot.ico]

So I created a spycicle replacement with blender, modeled it, etc.
But no matter what I do, I can NEVER get the texture to show up. I've modified the .qc file in as many ways I can imagine, changed file locations, and changed the texture names and everything, but it just wont work. I got the model to work just fine, but the texture just wont work.
Whether I place them in custom, materials, or both.

The .smd was created with no errors, and everything else has compiled fine... (I used GUIStudioMDL and the Blender Source Tools plugin)
I'd go into detail but I'm not entirely sure what you would need besides the .qc

This is what I currently have:
butterknife_redux.qc
(redux only because I recreated the qc file.. haven't made this mod before)

 $cd "C:\Users\Ryan\Desktop\Test_hat\BUTTERKNIFE"
$modelname "weapons/c_models/c_xms_cold_shoulder/c_xms_cold_shoulder.mdl"
$model "Body" "butterknife.redux.smd"
$cdmaterials "models\workshop\player\items\spy\butterknife\"
$hboxset "default"
$hbox 0 "weapon_bone" -0.605  -4.014  -0.510  0.609  15.869  0.754
$attachment "icicle_tip_0" "weapon_bone" -0.01 15.87 0.12 rotate -0.00 90.00 -90.00
$attachment "icicle_base_1" "weapon_bone" -0.01 -3.99 0.12 rotate -0.00 90.00 -90.00
$surfaceprop "metal"
$illumposition 0.122 0.002 5.927
$sequence idle "idle" fps 30.00
$collisionmodel "phymodel.smd" {

	$mass 1.0
	$inertia 1.00
	$damping 0.00
	$rotdamping 1.00
}

Please help, I've been at this for at least 5 hours.

Open your .smd file with notepad++ and check to see if the material name was applied correctly. You can copy/paste the first 30 lines here if you want me to take a look.

Wow, turns out I made a typo for the name of the texture file. I used the exact name that was in the .smd for my VTF/VMT and it worked perfectly!
Thanks so much man, I woulda never looked there! I can't believe after all those name changes and folder changes, I missed one silly thing :s

Also, thanks for making these tutorials and things and being available to the community. Mad props.

No problem. I'm glad you got it solved.
