Hammer Editor

Below are unresolved bugs in Hammer Editor.

Bug: On some systems, running Counter-Strike 2 with Workshop Tools, will cause the memory usage to increase abnormally (memory leak).1

Workaround:Launch CS2 Workshop Tools (without -gpuraytracing) by going to CS2's bin\win64 directory and launch csgocfg.exe with -steam -retail -vulkan. However this will disable GPU Path Tracing option in Hammer.

Resolved

Hammer Editor

Below are the fixed bugs in Hammer Editor.

Bug:Since the Armory Update, a newer version of the Nvidia Studio driver may cause tool crashes when trying to preview lighting or compile a map using Path Tracing. If you are experiencing crashes, you can try the stable version of the driver: Nvidia Studio 561.09 (Tue Sep 17, 2024).

Confirm:RTX 50 series graphics card has been released, and it only support new driver. Is there any other workaround for these card, or whether if its not affected on RTX 50 series?
