I recently reinstalled Hammer, and it's not working! Note: I used to map for 1.5, not Steam! Steam muddles all the folders up! It's so confusing! I got most of it to work, except when I compile, it says "File specified cannot be found." This is not on Tommy of Escondido's FAQ, so I'm asking you 1.6 mappers what's wrong?

OK, don't use Hammer to compile. Ever.
Second, download Zoner's compile tools
http://collective.valve-erc.com/index.php?go=mhlt
Third, to compile, put all of those .exe files in one folder
Then, put your .map file in that folder as well
Then make a new text document, and type this in:
Code:
@echo off
hlcsg.exe yourmap.map
hlbsp.exe yourmap.map
hlvis.exe yourmap.map
hlrad.exe yourmap.map
copy yourmap.bsp "C:\Program Files\Steam\SteamApps\YOU@YOUREMAIL\counter-strike\cstrike\maps"
pause
Save this as a batch file (.bat) into the folder with the compile tools and your map. Then double click the file and your map is compiled and put into your maps folder. If you have an error, a .err file will come into that folder.

This is easier.

CS 1.6 Mapping - CKY - 12-01-2004 10:29 PM

show me the error file if there is one


CS 1.6 Mapping - TheCheat - 12-02-2004 12:02 AM

that's not the error file? :o


CS 1.6 Mapping - CKY - 12-02-2004 04:35 AM

The error file ends in .err
Open it in notepad and post it. It should be fairly short.


CS 1.6 Mapping - TheCheat - 12-02-2004 12:02 PM

Ah. In that case, it would be:
