Wanted to experiment with making a LoRA for applying textures/patterns to things, so I picked a strong candidate for the most famous texture of all: The Source engine default texture, used when a user is missing a texture in Source engine games. This was most prominently seen in Gmod due to mods using Valve owned textures from Half-Life 2 and Counter-Strike Source that they didn’t redistribute for legal and space reasons. As of July 2025 Gmod contains most of these textures by default, but the missing texture texture can still be seen due to other issues.

Tag: mtex [item] and checkered [item]. e.g., “mtex shirt, checkered shirt”, “mtex socks, checkered socks”, “mtex couch, checkered couch”
