    Materials with 2 images

    Hi Guys, i have one material name which must be connected to 2 images:

    Material must be name: mtl_cobra_window_mp
    _-gcobra_window_clr_mp (.dds) <- Textured with colours
    cobra_window_nml (.gdt) <- Textured only with grey / white

    and...

    Materal must be name: mtl_cobra_mp_dark
    _-gt5_veh_helo_cobra_mp_dark_color (.dds) <- Textured with colours
    t5_veh_helo_cobra_mp_dark_n (.gdt) <- Textured only with grey / white

    So the two materials have 2 images, how i can make settings for 2 images?
    Please make a photo or write information which settings on Asset manager i must make.

    Thank you!

    Just do it as 1 image in Asset manager. But then 2 times, with different image names

    Textures which end in _nml or _n are normal maps, and go in the normal map section of the materials file:

    Thank you, that said me Mitch already too But i have now images and it have a material name, but idk with which image it's connected, last model with a helicopter, there was everytime modelname_window (material) and there was a image name modelname_window_nrm.dds , so i did knew that this image is connected to this material.

    But now there are material names which i don't know with what it's connected.

    So in the xmodel converter there i can get from the game that model the GDT, then i can open the GDT on Asset Manager and look what is for what, so i need help,
    if someone knows how to get the GDT then please show me.

    Thank you!!!

    I don't really know what you are saying because your english is so poor (no insult intended), but a .GDT file is just a template - a way of saving data for later use. It is not actually used in a running game. It is not a image file, and it is not a model file. So, don't worry about .GDT files. They aren't important.

    If you want to know what image files go with what materials file, look at the originals - if they come from World at War, get the original materials file from World at War, and open it with a Hex editor and see what image names are being used in it. Then, duplicate it with your COD2 materials file.
