New to Hammer tool

DudeWheresMyMedic · 01-31-2009, 05:13 PM

I'm having a hard time with the hammer tool. I made the walls and floors but textures and spawns I can't get working. Need some help with it.

Try following a guide.

And be sure to read the stickies to learn how to set up Hammer so you can map for FF.

We included source files of some maps with the game. It's in the source folder in FortressForever. Load one of these in hammer and you'll get a pretty good idea of what you need to do and how to do it. Copy and paste saves a lot of time too. I'm not saying you should copy any geometry but it's good for entities that's for sure.
