Title: How to fix ur hammer
Post by: Statua on June 15, 2013, 01:37:14 PM

We all know that with the new steampipe update, our beloved hammer from SourceSDK is giving us grief.

Well this guy managed to find a fix for it:

For anyone too lazy to watch the video, here's what you gotta do:

Step 1: Navigate to steam/steamapps/common/Team Fortress 2/bin

Step 2: Locate the hammer.exe in the bin folder. Make a shortcut or whatever you want with it unless you live navigating to the steam/steamapps/common/Team Fortress 2/bin whenever you want to start hammer.

Step 3: Navigate to your favourite game folder (CSS, EP2, Portal, whatever) and copy the folder that contains all the data (see table below for the folders)

Step 4: Paste the folder into steam/steamapps/common/Team Fortress 2

Step 5: Run hammer, set up your options manually, and make awesome maps.

Hope this helped.

Table showing where your game folders are that you need to paste into Team Fortress 2 so you dont get the gameinfo.txt error.
