Why So Serious?
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); People have been asking me how to add calling cards to menus, yet all the information is out there lol

Anyway a short quick tutorial on how to use them.

1.Visit - You must login or register to view this content.
2.Copy any background you want. (note not all are calling cards, some are emblem creator icons which also work ).
3.Precache in Init as precacheshader ("background_name_here").

Now just use it as a shader in your menu using setshader.

Really easy!

Extra notes-
-Not all backgrounds will work some may appear as checkered or some may not appear at ll
-I'll post the camos backgrounds later today.

Here it is in my menu

I can see your point but for something as simple as this people should be able to look and figure it out.

Is their a limit to how much shaders can be displayed on the screen? I tried like last month or so when I first got the card names, but when I tried setting them on the newer version of your menu base they wouldn't show up anymore. They did work on the previous versions but after the new ones they wouldn't show up. I tried a couple things but it was a no go, so I put it off. You got any ideas?

Yeah there is a limit but I don't know what that limit is. And make sure you're setting the alpha to one otherwise it might have reached the limit. I'm not sure without testing it myself.
