I cant compile my firt map as the way that my HL2 is installed i can find the directory...trust me i have tryed

If i send some 1 the .map file can they complie it into a .bsp for me pleeeease^^

srry i cant* find the diretory...

please i love this map and there is no point me mapping if i cant even use or test the maps....

Get the Compilation Controller V.1.4, because if you can't compile your maps, then your pretty screwed. People are'nt going to always compile your maps, do you realize how long that would take? You can't just pull of a final compile in one compile. So I suggest getting the above program off of snarkpit.com... Goodluck

oh shit, I'm in the hl2 forum.. what the hell.. sorry.

what so what u just said cant help me.....

You're gonna have to compile your maps sooner or later, it mightaswell be sooner. What exactly is the problem? Will you post your compile window?

ill copy the text instead

** Executing...

The command failed. Windows reported the error:
"No such file or directory"

** Executing...

** Parameters: "C:Documents and SettingsOwnerMy Documentsds_close.map" "ds_close.map"

** Executing...
** Command: Copy File

I could not find the direct link to half life ect so i used the hammer set up guide now can you see why im buggerd

and trust me i looked for more that and hour

Well unless you installed HL2 to the directory C:hl then that is wrong. It should be $SteamUserDirhalf-life 2 where SteamuserDir is your steam username. That should be in the Program filesValve directory. And you shouldn't have your maps in My Documents either. They should be in sourcesdk_contenthl2mapsrc directory. It's interesting that you're having trouble, my Hammer 4 was automatically setup!

I'd strongly suggest you go to "reset configuration" in the SDK launcher. That compile process is... empty. You didn't play with any settings randomly, did you?

no i didnt, but yeah ill look there SDK is that in the steam browser or the HLDM OR just HL

im really new to this

Everyone is once.

so what is SDK????
or shall i just stop mapping???

Software Development Kit. It's on your Steam Games menu? It's probably what you use to launch Hammer.

kk thanks ill look

right i found it now what??
