How to Install/Setup Hammer

(1/1)

TheIgnorantPianist:
Alright after hours of failing to install and setup the Source SDK editor I have decided this is the best course of action. How in gods name are you supposed to set this up. I have used Source SDK many times and never had an issue with it. I seached this forums for help and i tried the gamesconfig.txt thing and it doesn't not work. I have quadrupled check everything to make sure everything was in the right place. I also noticed that i no longer have my username folder in steam. Everything keeps downloading into the common folder which include all my game and tools. I tried switching my username for "common" in the gameconfig file and still nothing. I noticed that both of those threads are god awfully old and alot as changed. I was wondering if you could shine some light onto this subject.

Close the SDK.

}
}
}
"SDKVersion" "3"
}

--- End code ---

Then load Hammer and change the game paths/settings as needed.
