- Use File > Import, with these settings https://developer.valvesoftware.com/w/images/8/86/Vtfedit_importoptions.png
- save the texture with name background01.vtf
- Put the texture info the folder "steamapps\common\dota 2 beta\dota\materials\console" (create the folder if it does not exist)
- In Steam, go into your Dota properties, and add the launch option "-override_vpk".
