You answered your own question... This is one of the reasons people are told to remove custom files from your main before you map... If you use anything custom that is not a part of the original game (like the textures) you need to add them to your iwd file... Locate the textures and place them in the images folder in your iwd... That should solve the problem

emelbye... you must clear all custom stuffs to map. If you want to use others custom textures ( would be also nice to ask ), they are located in the images folder of each iwd. Use a converter/viewer to see what they look like.

If you're lucky, select the brushface with the texture, press 'S' and see of you can find out anything that way (map name for instance). There is a iwi2dds converter (google for it). Then open the .dds file in gimp, photoshop or whatever you have.

So, what tools/programs do I download, and what do I have to do in order to get the textures that I want?

hm, did you edit your question? i think this is your solution: 1.) find out the name of the texture Quote: If you're lucky, select the brushface with the texture, press 'S' and see of you can find out anything that way (map name for instance). 2.) get the texture out of the custom map's iwd 3.) place it in your own iwd (images\...) 4.) send your iwd to your friend
