I just stumbled across these textures they're some of the best if not the best that I've seen.

nice

[SaL]

Yeah I viewed all of them and there are some really nice ones.I want to ask you what's the best way to get these textures into hammer? I know I need to save them into a half-life texture some how.I've only used wads before so this is new.
