in mapping with steam Post #19267
Arighty, I map with Hammer for Steam 1.6. IT AINT EASY!! First, I used this link http://www.egir.dk/index.php?page=vhe_setup.htm here for most of the Hammer setup BUT it doesn't work all the way. I ended up finding the halflife.wad in my Half Life Dedicated Server folder, for one. The main workaround I have to do is that setting up according to the link aforementioned, the .MAP ends up in the right place, but the .BSP and any other files end up in my C:Program FilesSteamSteamApps folder, with the name myemail@myemailserver.bsp etc. Also, I use Hammer 3.5 BETA which works, but I had to switch the file to READ-ONLY because it kept regressing to Hammer 3.4 for no good reason. Also, I had to put the halflife-cs_expert.fgd (FilePlanet or somewhere) in the fgd folder. ALSO, File->Run in Hammer 3.5, at least for me (who has Blue Shift retail, no cstrike.exe anywhere), does everything it's supposed to but gives you an error when it runs tries to run your level. This is actually pretty handy, because it means my machine bleeps when it's done compiling. Then, I just have to rename and move my .bsp and run steam. Good luck!!!

in Could not find map on sever Post #19262
Using Steam? My bsp shows up a couple folders above my cstrike maps folder, with myname@myemail.bsp as the name. I gave up trying trying to get the path right, so I just copy and rename the bsp to the maps directory.

If it ain't there, there are two cs .fgd's I have found, this one and one called halflife-cs.fgd. I think I found them at file planet.

in where r my wads? Post #19259
Yeah, I have retail blue-shift and the first place I found them all was in the Half Life Dedicated Server folders (I had dl'd that before I started mapping). If you can't find all the WADs you want try looking through there.
