View source for GoldSource mapping in Hammer 4.x

{{Orphan|date=January 2024}}

Although it's not easy to set up, it is possible to map for any {{goldsrc|3.1}} game using {{hammer4|4}}
You only need to download the appropriate .fgd files and modify your GameConfig.txt file (either Episode One or Orange Box; it doesn't matter).
Using the GameInfo.txt below will make Hammer use {{hls|4}} models and textures.

To edit your {{file|GameConfig|txt}} go to {{path|C:\program files\steam\steamapps\<username>\sourcesdk\bin\ep1\bin\}} or {{path|C:\program files\steam\steamapps\<username>\sourcesdk\bin\orangebox\bin\}} and open it with your text editor of choice.

Read the section below for a better understanding of the structure of GameConfig.txt

{{warning|Using this setup will cause certain functions in Hammer to work improperly. It is a better idea to use a dedicated {{goldsrc|3.1}} editor like {{jack|4}} or {{sledge|4}}.}}
{{note| {{hammer4|4.1}} does not render textures from {{hl|3.1}} like .wad or .spr files.}}

== Modifiying GameConfig.txt ==

Add any of these to your [[GameConfig.txt]] file of choice. Be sure to change <username> to your Steam username.
Also, make sure all the paths are correct for your computer.

{{Note|{{goldsrc|3.1}} maps are compiled by four tools, but {{src|3.1}} maps are compiled by only three tools. In Hammer 4.1, you will not be able to compile correctly with the setup in these game configurations, but they can be added manually in expert settings by adding executable options (for more information see [http://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Hammer_Run_Map_Expert Compiling Map In Expert Mode]) and be compiled correctly by adding CSG, BSP, VIS, and RAD in that order, Zoners Half-Life Compile Tools are recommended for compiling {{goldsrc|3.1}} maps.}}

'''Make sure''' that you paste these configurations between
<pre>
"Configs"
{
"Games"
{

and
<pre>
}
"SDKVersion"		"3"
}
</pre>
If your GameConfig.txt is missing a '{' or '}' because you didn't paste properly it probably won't work.

== Adding your own configuration ==

Read through this to work out how to add in a custom configuration for a mod.

<pre>
"Modname"
{
	"GameDir"		"c:\program files\steam\steamapps\<username>\half-life\modname"  // path to the mod directory
	"hammer"
	{
		"GameData0"		"c:\modname.fgd"  // path to .fgd file
		"TextureFormat"		"2"  // leave this as 2; it tells Hammer to use .wad files instead of .vtf
		"MapFormat"		"3" // leave this as 3: it tells Hammer to use .rmf files instead of .vmf
		"DefaultTextureScale"		"0.250000"  // ??? (leave it)
		"DefaultLightmapScale"		"16"  // ??? (leave it)
		"GameExe"		"c:\program files\steam\steamapps\<username>\half-life\hl.exe"  // path to Half-Life executable
		"DefaultSolidEntity"		"func_wall"  // should be something else?
		"DefaultPointEntity"		"info_player_start"  // player start entity
		"BSP"		"c:\program files\steam\steamapps\<username>\sourcesdk\bin\halflife\bin\qbsp2.exe"  // doesn't need to be set; compile with a .bat file
		"Vis"		"c:\program files\steam\steamapps\<username>\sourcesdk\bin\halflife\bin\vis.exe"  // doesn't need to be set; compile with a .bat file
		"Light"		"c:\program files\steam\steamapps\<username>\sourcesdk\bin\halflife\bin\qrad.exe"  // doesn't need to be set; compile with a .bat file
		"GameExeDir"		"c:\program files\steam\steamapps\<username>\half-life"  // leave it because mods won't use any othe executable
		"MapDir"		"c:\program files\steam\steamapps\<username>\half-life\modname\maps"  // directory to load maps from
		"BSPDir"		"c:\program files\steam\steamapps\<username>\half-life\valve\maps"  // directory to place compiled maps in; not needed because compilation needs to be done manually
		"CordonTexture"		"sky" 
		"MaterialExcludeCount"		"0"  // ??? (leave it )
	}
}
</pre>

== GameInfo.txt ==

Hammer 4.x will look for a [[GameInfo.txt]] file in the game directory it is working from, however GoldSource engine games do not have [[GameInfo.txt]] files.

Paste this into a [[GameInfo.txt]] in your game directory (steamapps\counter-strike\cstrike\, steamapps\day of defeat\dod\ etc)

{{note|If using the Orange Box version of hammer, replace the SteamAppId with 218.}}
<pre>

"GameInfo"

	game	"Counter-Strike"

	type	multiplayer_only

		ToolsAppId				211

			Game				hl2
			Game				hl1
		}
	}
}
</pre>

== Forge Game Data ==

Hammer 3.x .fgd files will work in Hammer 4.x
Look below for links to .fgd files.

If you are going to use the configurations from above, copy your .fgd files to c:\program files\steam\steamapps\<username>\sourcesdk\bin\halflife\bin\
