thanks for the reply.
I'm thinking it has to do with having HL/CS 1.5 and then installing steam. Maybe it has taken over some .dll's. Maybe it's a XP issue.
I followed the beginners tut here. I'm just making some cubes with a player start and a light. Getting a feel for heights and such. Made one, worked, made another, overview problem. I found an old map I made and it won't load either, a different problem. CS works and I know my old map had worked at one time. Heck I just installed Kingpin after 5 years and the map I made for that works.... Dunno... Maybe I should go back with radiant..
thanks and have a good weekend!

Last night was making a couple cs test maps... Everything fired up and launched game. Today creating a new one I get an error when the game fires up saying could not read overview.txt file and xp error report comes up and shuts down game. I read thru the ov tut on this site but I can't get into game with the map to create one..
any ideas?
thanks...

Howdy all...first time poster... glad to be here...
yes I'm going to ask again about entities... Read thru the forums.. Didn't find what I was looking for...
I got Hammer 3.4, CS mapping, updated the fgd... set up preferences. everything loads 'except' where are the rest of the entities? All the "func's" are no where to be found. I click the entity button on left, loads them on right in the pull down. info starts are there but no func's.. I'm in a func right now : ....
any help would be great......

rock on...
