i dont know it any one made a tut on this or even found out how to do this...
this is a tut on how to get CE bitmaps to show up on a mod with out replacing existing bitmpas and including a bitmaps.map with your mod..
( you cant understand this tut unless you have done some simmilar modding)

ok, the fitst few steps are simmilar to a tut i red on how to get CE bitmaps..

step #1: extract what ever it is you want for your mod from the CE map. (NOTE: you will need to keep the CE map or the tut cant be done)

step #2: import it to your bloodgulch.map(aka your mod) and fix the model ect.

step#3: change the name of the CE map that you took the object from to "bitmaps.map"

step#4: open the CE map with HMT and go in to the bitm tags and select the bitmaps that the object you used uses.

step#5: export all the textures and label them according to the bitmap they go to.

step#6: then you can change the CE map's name back or get rid of it

step#7: then change the bloodgulch.map's name to bitmaps.map and load it in HMT

step#8: Next you open the bitm tags in that map and scroll down till you see the bitmaps from the CE map

step#9: lastly you inject all of the extracted textures into the correct bitmap tags.

yeah i was going to say, why not use that, that way you don't need to overwrite other stuff.

Or experiment for a month trying to find out what built-in shader looks good on your import.

Didn't Mota say he might make a bitmaps pack for the tags?
