When she said tally hall I went down the drain

the visuals look like something from plants vs zombies garden warfare. it would fit tf2 more if the lava and massive bones were toned down in some areas in my opinion.

I pressed run map but it just doesnt do anything

scout have 140hp?

Tf2 got started but i didnt load the map?? Edit: I also didnt start with a mapsrc folder i made it myself

Hi, I'm trying to mirror a map for a friend. We want to see what the map would like like mirrored. I assume I can use a skip brush around the entire map, select it, Ctrl+L and be done? I wouldn't have to shift-drag to copy it. Or are there easier ways of doing this? I know this video is part of a series but I just want to mirror a map... not fall into the Hammer Development Abyss and never come out.

is it ok if i put them in bin

my map cant be opened even telling me the massege say the command failed. windows reported error: "systém nemuže nalezt uvedenou cestu." which mean something like: my system couldnt find set way/path

Bro, crash, I am applying one of my maps for Scream Fortress, thank you!

I am using this tool to make windows right now lol lol lol!

Thanks for the helpful video!

thank you for this tutorial

I knew i recognised that name

Insane to think this is in the game now. This should be shown to everyone before they play the map

The pack is broken and it has to be done manualy. Cuz 64 bit update r something it said when i last checked.

what about mac-

i cant find map srs

wow, i thinks its starting to hit me that im making maps for a game that’s older than me by a little, in a program thats older than me by a lot, thank you crash.

getting taught how to do something and still not knowing sounds like a strange case to me

i doubt ill get a response, but every time i try and run the map, tf2 wont load. the text screen pops up and everything but it just doesnt launch tf2 (before you ask i dont have the "dont run game after compiling" button checked) also heres the transcript from the compile process window: ** Executing... ** Command: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Team Fortress 2\bin\vbsp.exe" ** Parameters: -game "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Team Fortress 2\tf" "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Team Fortress 2\sourcesdk_content\tf\mapsrc\bazinga.vmf" Valve Software - vbsp.exe (Jun 25 2024) 24 threads Using shader api: shaderapiempty.dll materialPath: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Team Fortress 2\tf\materials Loading C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Team Fortress 2\sourcesdk_content\tf\mapsrc\bazinga.vmf fixing up env_cubemap materials on brush sides...

its not running?

3:38

i did everything like in the guide, exctracting, adding, saving and all those kinds of things but when i opened hammer the engineer is just an error and no new textues were added any idea why?

Good tutorial! One issue, my complete dumbass cant find the steam folder, i looked for it EVERYWHERE and searched for it but its just not there 💀...... edit: nvm, i think i found it...... (Also im impressed by how quickly you explained it! 👍)

Saw this after suffering for several hours. 😞 The spawn entity now just spawns an error no matter what instead of automatically a spawn point, any pointers???

!!!IMPORTANT!!! There is a chance your prefabs will not work. If this happens, paste the prefabs folder over the already existing "prefabs" folder in Bin just like you did for the tf folder.

Hey UEAKcrash, i saw that your map is NOW in CASUAL, CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!

Can you make a tutorial on how to make forward spawn

Whelp, maybe next year

I'm still holding out hope for this one in particular

Whenever I compile the map, it doesn't open the game to playtest it. I have the .bsp file, but the game just isn't opening.

what if the blue spawn on the PL part of the map has blue paint covering the former red walls, with some paint rollers, buckets, etc laying around?

the map does not launch into tf2 after compiling it what am i supposed to do then?

also I just realized he's still replying to comments, super awesome!

concise and actually helpful, Thanks!

Finally watching this after a year. I wanna give some thoughts on the source engine I absolutely hate how much i love the source engine. When i was little i would play the orange box for hours messing around with the physics and aweing the 3d sky box. Its so crazy how simple yet also complicated it is. Ive been getting into hammer recently (well hammer++) and its crazy how simple it is to make a level i was always thretened by it but now that im lerning im realizing hammer was designed very well... Well for the 90s. Also theres no denying source is so janky. Especially tf2's branch. This is probably because valve kept updating it unlike there single player games. Honestly im sure csgo had alot jank before upgrading to source 2.( AND EVEN THAT HAS JANK) Source is a really weird engine. But i think thays why we love it so much. I mean, why do we still mess around with it after 20 years? Especially with garry's mod.

Please help, the spawn point is an error instead of the engineer and I can’t run the map :(

To anyone who may have had the issue of the custom engineer appearing as the red ERROR, try using the hammer.exe in the x64 folder where you put the "prefabs" folder in earlier, it ended up solving the problem for me.

it just says ERROR for me

i'm on the step where you add the texture in the 1024 box, but when i press enter the outline just dissapears :(

(UEAK pls make a vid on this cuz I'm sure a lot of ppl are having this issue) EDIT: THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN FIXED this is edited as I have found the actual fix for the problem I have found the actual fix for the problem. In hammer, Press on "Tools" then "Options" then select "Build Programs" In Game executable change "hl2.exe" to "tf.exe" Now TF2 should run whenever you compile your map

this still works today lol. very helpful

Brew is breathtakingly beautiful. Props to the devs!
