Hammer and HL2MP Totally borked Created 13 years ago2010-10-01 13:29:52 UTC by commieman

Hello.

I ran steam and was shocked and horrified to see HL2MP updating. "noooo, what are they doing?!" I don't know. They don't know either.

I gather there was some sort of update from ep1 to orange box, anyways, vehicles have been completely removed from my (MY) racing mod, and hammer is useless with 4 black screens. I didn't find anything relevent or recent with google, can anyone offer some help on what happened or what I can do to try and fix it.Thanks!

I had 2 journals going, each this month, valve broke the SDK 4 months ago and have made no move to fix it, don't bother.

I have "fixed" part of my problem, I can make my mod run with cars enabled again. I had to make a desktop shortcut like this:

E:\Valve\Steam\Steam.exe -applaunch 215 -game "e:\valve\steam\SteamApps\SourceMods\supercars"

I remembered gmod9 needing a similar fix, so I gave it a go and success!

Hammer is still useless so I can't update my mod, but at least people can play it. I might run my spare PC in offline mode and do it from there

Don't force obligitory updates which break everything, and then deny all responsbility! Commies.

Also, that's not like Communism at all./correction
Carry on.

here are the pre updated binaries.

you need to launch the sdk, then place these in the proper folder, then launch hammer.

you will need to do this every time you open the sdk, as launching sdk runs the updates.

Cool, thanks. I can cope with that once a day. I should probably take a day off and then carry on mapping merrily

To get hammer working again open the gameinfo.txt of your mod and change the SteamAppID to:

SteamAppId 215

That is if you used to have original (ep1) hl2 and the recent OB update broke it. Seriously, why couldn't Valve just tell me that.

They wanted you to look for yourself
