   Half-Life 2 Sprites
  After playing Episode 1 I got a strong inclination to start poking around in the code for HL2 and try some things.  I made a small change to the Rocket launcher weapon and wanted to look into changing content just to get my bearings working with the code and structure of everything.  I saw mention in weapon_rpg.cpp that the sprite for the laser beam and dot for the RPG are in effects/laser1_noz.vmt and sprites/redglow1.vmt respectively.  I have used GCFScape to explore the GCF files, but i've yet to find these directories.  Can anyone point me in the right direction?  Thanks.   
  GCFScape - open "Source materials.gcf"hl2 | materials | effectsscroll down in the main window, you should see laser_noz.vmt, shows as 125 bytes for me.hl2 | materials | spritesscroll down again, redglow1.vmt - 123 bytes
