source sdk dose not map for HL1 Created 16 years ago2007-11-29 19:59:04 UTC by spinakerjones

hey im back. but anyways i wanted to know (yes this is probably a noob question) what program or version of hammer to download so i can map for HL1 and HL1 mods like DOD. the hammer that comes with source SDK wont format for HL1 and all those mods. is there a differnt version i can download so i can map?

thanks in advance

download the 3.4 version of Hammer, and upgrade it to 3.5 (.exe patch)

i downloaded worldcraft 3.3, steam says it works with hl + its mods. i set up everything correct except the textures.wad file the tut im reading says to put in. i can find it anywhere in my HL directory! i looked in every folder and sub folder. please help!

thanks

hahaha.... no. go to the VERC website and get Hammer 3.4.

VERC is crap.

Go here: http://www.themightyatom.nl/downloads.html

Has everything you need.

Huh, downloaded two files from your site. Not bad

ok this is getting retarded. when i start up hammer 3.4 it asks me to set up the options so i can map for them, i press ok then make a configuration name Day of Defeat then when i enter game data files i click on add then double click dod.fgd then hammer freezes. wtffff i deleted and reinstalled it, restarted my computer and i would try to set up half life to see if that works but i cant find the .fgd file for HL! hellpppp

thanks

EDIT: well i got everything done except for the freggan texture.wad file its really pissing me off now. could some one go and copy all the textures from there version of half-life and email em or something so i can just make my own texture file or just copy your whole texture.wad file and send it over?? is that possible.

well there's no texture.wad file. (unless you have a wad titled 'texture')
If you get GCFscape and look through the HL pack you can get halflife.wad and xeno.wad and liquids.wad.

hmm theres one other file with a .wad but i already tried that and it did not work. this is really pissing me off ive spent like 12 hours now trying to find frecan texture files. there are a couple from maps ive downloaded but nothing near as many textures as there should be. man this sucks i had no trouble setting up the hammer that works with source games, but i really want to map for hl and dod.

AHHHHHHHHHH im going inSANE!
ya but when you get rid of that and i try to start making a map it says there are no textures avalible for use with that game so i cant texture any of my blocks!

You should add decals.wad too... this has all the decals in it.

halflife textures are not useful for dod(except decals)

Thanks so much guys i started a new thread because my problem is now not related (i think) to textures and the set up.
