i am using the downloaded steam version of halflife also if that matters :

I hope you are using Zoner's Compiling Tools

i have them downloaded but i cant asociate (spelling?) them with hammer as wen i search my directories for it it doesnt show, and wen i run it it deletes itself, where can i get a reliable download for it?

Here it is

hmm. steam has a special sey up i dont know

Read the setup guide in our tutorial section.

hey i got da same problem, i did two things,
1. search in windows for filesystem and when {and if} you see "filesystem_steam.dll" or something like dat copy it into your folder where you store the maps you are trying to go on to.
2. make sure that in your options, under game config. that the default pointentity class is is info_player_start and default solentity class is func_wall. I AM STILL HAVING SOME PROBLEMS WITH IT SO DONT GET UR HOPES UP! when i hit f9 and go cs starts up and when it gets to "starting local server" cs crashes [sort of it just dissepears : ] and goes back to hammer. if anyone can help me wit dat please reply to this or send me an email thx a bunch PEACE OUT!!

Check/post the log. Don't try to start a Steam game from the end of the compile process, start it yourself manually.

dude if ur trying to make CS maps do not use any steam related directories it will not work just use ur CS 1.5 folders to compile and build the maps u can still play the maps in 1.6 but u dont need them set in the config or build windows.
