Fixing broken 2006 Source SDK Created 14 years ago2010-11-25 21:20:30 UTC by hlife_hotdog

I've been having increasing difficulty getting the 2006 SDK for Counter-Strike: Source.

First of all, it was missing editor textures, which was an easy fix by extracting them from the GFC.

Second, when I open Hammer, I have buggy viewports, they each have a single white line running through them. Some windows have the line do a 90 degree turn in the middle others have two lines crossing. I fixed this by downloading pre-update binaries and replace them after loading the SDK but before openign Hammer. This seemed to solve that problem.

Now, instead of lines. I just have black viewports, the 3D camera seems to respond to movement (when I press z) But even if I try to place a block, I get nothing. Can anyone help?

If I ask why you're trying to design for pre-update CSS, will I regret it?

It's GCF, not GFC. Dunno why, but that really annoys me. It stands for Game Cache File.

I still don't understand what everyone means by that? Counter-Strike is in my 2006 Source games? Please explain...

If you hadn't noticed, my writing is full of typos. I know it was GCF, but when I proof-read my post, I missed it, sorry.

Counter-Strike was updated to the 2009 Source engine around 3-4 months ago.
It should be there in your SDK list.
If it's not, refresh SDK content.

Oh awesome! Thanks, I never knew this had happened.

Almost every single source game is\has been updated to 2009, try to keep with the program.

Good luck with the project.
