V2 Hammer Tutorial Series

TopHATTwaffle's logo that will be seen somewhere in every V2 series video tutorial.

The Hammer Tutorial V2 Series tutorials are a series of video tutorials created by TopHATTwaffle. The goal of these tutorials is to teach the proper and correct use of Hammer World Editor. The expected skill level going into the first tutorial is someone with little to no knowledge of level design, then to teach them the skills from basics to advanced. The series uses a class room style teaching method where you build upon what you've learned in previous lessons. Although the tutorials are meant to be watched one after another, you can watch any video to learn the skill in that video.
