Problem solved! Just put 3.5's exe onto 3.4 ones.

3.5 is just the .exe itself, drop it where you installed 3.4 and thats it

Yup, i updated the thread. Works now.

But i have one problem. Gordon, NPC's, and weapons are showing up as yellow and blue blocks. I had heard that in 3.5 you SHOULD be able to see info_player_start as Gordon. Mine shows up as a yellow box. Help please! :aghast:

Mine's like this:

perhaps you need to enable it in the settings? also make sure directories are properly set and the content has to be unpacked, make sure your version of hl doesnt use paks or gcfs. Also I think the .fgd has to be newer, it was released along with 3.5, I think

To see the models you need an fgd that provides studio parameters for the entities and you need to drop the models into "hammer exe dir/models". Same with sprites in "hammer exe dir/sprites".

Fixed it already. I downloaded the updated HalfLife FGD from VERC'S archived website and replace it with the one i currently use. Solved!
