Source SDK - Hammer

(1/2) > >>

UKZz HELLRAISER:
Could we get a tutorial for setting up Hammer?
I'd like to make some custom maps (first maps would be recreations of PS2's JB 007: Nightfire).

kraid:
Find your GameConfig.txt file.

It's located in ...\STEAM\SteamApps\common\SourceSDK\bin\source2007\bin

Open it up with a text editor.
If it's empty it should look like this:


--- Code: ---
"Configs"
{
"Games"
{

}
"SDKVersion" "3"
}

--- End code ---

Inbetween the brackets, insert this Text:

--- Code: ---
"GE:S v5.0"
{
"GameDir" "D:\STEAM\SteamApps\sourcemods\gesource"
"hammer"
{
"GameData0" "D:\STEAM\SteamApps\sourcemods\gesource\goldeneye.fgd"
"TextureFormat" "5"
"MapFormat" "4"
"DefaultTextureScale" "0.250000"
"DefaultLightmapScale" "16"
"GameExe" "D:\STEAM\steamapps\common\Source SDK Base 2007\hl2.exe"
"DefaultSolidEntity" "func_detail"
"DefaultPointEntity" "info_player_deathmatch"
"BSP" "D:\STEAM\steamapps\common\SourceSDK\bin\source2007\bin\vbsp.exe"
"Vis" "D:\STEAM\steamapps\common\sourcesdk\bin\source2007\bin\vvis.exe"
"Light" "D:\STEAM\steamapps\common\sourcesdk\bin\source2007\bin\vrad.exe"
"GameExeDir" "D:\STEAM\SteamApps\sourcemods\gesource"
"MapDir" "D:\STEAM\SteamApps\sourcemods\gesource\mapsrc"
"BSPDir" "D:\STEAM\SteamApps\sourcemods\gesource\maps"
"CordonTexture" "tools\toolsskybox"
"MaterialExcludeCount" "0"
}
}

--- End code ---

Now you only need to change the file paths to whereever your steam is located, if it's not acidentally D:\ for you.
I'd recomend the search and replace function to minimize the risk of typos.

For MapDir you're free to choose any path you like to store your .vmf files in.

UKZz HELLRAISER:
Thanks very much.
I knew GameInfo.txt was the file to go to, just not where this partiuclar one was hiding.
I had come across another post for setting it up, but obviously the GameInfo.txt that post referenced was the wrong one.

Thanks again.

Will do!
Currently working on 007: Nightfire's "Snowblind" MP map from the console versions.
The ambition is to recreate all of them ;)
