    I want to edit a few of HL2's texture to my needs but their all in this *.vtf and *.vmf format. Is there any way i can convert then to TGA or something for editing?

    I dont know about this, though it would be important to know huh? Maybe check the SDK documentation or emailing a valve rep. Did you try finding stuff with teh GCF viewer?

    Nar i found a vcf -> tga decompiler. It works fine except that i only have the diffuse of each texture. Where are the normal/specular maps?

    vtf2tga comes with the SDK, but it seems only to work when the tvtf you want to decompile is in the bins folder where the vtf2tga.exe is located.
