| | |
| If you launch the Hammer editor with no proper game configurations set up, the Hammer Editor has not automatically configured itself after installing the '''Source SDK'''. You can follow these steps to manually configure it. Before following these steps to repair a bad configuration, it is ''strongly suggested'' that you first attempt to fix your configuration by following the steps outlined in [[Incorrect Hammer configuration]].
| |
| | |
| '''Important Note:''' In most cases, Hammer will configure itself and you '''do not''' need to follow this procedure. If you have problems, it is much simpler to [[Incorrect Hammer configuration|reset the game configuration]] instead.
| |
| | |
| == Adding a new Game Configuration ==
| |
| | |
| 1. Run '''Hammer''' from the '''Source SDK Launcher'''.
| |
| | |
| 2. When you see the '''First Time Setup''' dialog box, click the '''No''' button:
| |
| | |
| :[[Image:Setup_NoGameConfig.png]]
| |
| | |
| 3. This '''Configure Hammer''' dialog should appear next.
| |
| | |
| :[[Image:Setup_GameConfig_01.png]]
| |
| | |
| If this dialog does not appear, choose '''Options''' from the '''Tools''' menu, and then select the '''Game Configurations''' tab.
| |
| | |
| 4. Click on the topmost '''Edit''' button, next to the '''Configuration '''drop-down list. The '''Edit Game Configurations''' dialog appears: | |
| | |
| :[[Image:Setup_EditGameConfig.png]]
| |
| | |
| 5. Press the '''Add''' button. This will open the '''Add a game '''dialog:
| |
| | |
| :[[Image:Setup_AddGame.png]]
| |
| | |
| 6. Type in "Counter-Strike", "cstrike", "Half-Life 2", "HL2DM" or an equivalent to name your configuration. This is the name that will appear in the Source SDK Launcher where it says '''Current Game'''. The exact name is unimportant, what's important is that it makes sense to you. Press '''OK''' to confirm your choice and close the dialog.
| |
| | |
| 7. Press the '''Close''' button in the '''Edit Game Configurations''' dialog.
| |
| | |
| == Setting game directory and basic parameters ==
| |
| | |
| You should now be back in the '''Configure Hammer''' dialog with your entry in the '''Configuration''' drop-down list:
| |
| | |
| :[[Image:Setup_GameConfig_02.png]]
| |
| | |
| 1. Press '''Add''' to the right of the '''Game Data''' files list. An '''Open''' dialog will appear:
| |
| | |
| :[[Image:Setup_AddGameOpen.png]]
| |
| | |
| 2. Open the appropriate .FGD file for your configuration:
| |
| | |
| :For a '''Counter-Strike: Source''' configuration, click on <code>cstrike.fgd</code> and then the '''Open''' button.
| |
| | |
| :For a '''Half-Life 2''' configuration, click on <code>halflife2.fgd</code> and then the '''Open''' button.
| |
| | |
| :For a '''Half-Life 2 Deathmatch''' configuration, click on <code>hl2mp.fgd</code> and then the '''Open''' button.
| |
| | |
| 3. Now you'll be back in the '''Configure Hammer''' dialog with these fields filled out:
| |
| | |
| :[[Image:Setup_GameConfig_03.png]]
| |
| | |
| 4. Type <code>0.25</code> into the '''Default texture scale''' field. Type <code>tools\toolsskybox</code> into the '''Cordon texture''' field.
| |
| | |
| 5. Under '''Game Executable Directory''', hit '''Browse''' and go to where you have the the game installed. : For example:
| |
| <code>C:\Program Files\Valve\Steam\SteamApps\''username''\counter-strike source</code>
| |
| | |
| :Where ''username'' should be your Steam Login name.
| |
| | |
| 6. Under '''Game Directory''', copy what you entered into '''Game Executable Directory''', paste it into '''Game Directory''', and add the game directory to the end. The game directory for Counter-Strike is <code>\cstrike</code>. For Half-Life 2, it is <code>\hl2</code>. For Half-Life 2 Deathmatch, it is <code>\hl2mp</code>.
| |
| | |
| :For example, for a '''Counter-Strike''' configuration, your '''Game Directory''' might be:
| |
| :<code>C:\Program Files\Valve\Steam\SteamApps\''username''\counter-strike source\cstrike</code>
| |
| | |
| :For a '''Half-Life 2''', your '''Game Directory''' might be:
| |
| :<code>C:\Program Files\Valve\Steam\SteamApps\''username''\half-life 2\hl2</code>
| |
| | |
| :For a '''Half-Life 2 Deathmatch''', your '''Game Directory''' might be:
| |
| :<code>C:\Program Files\Valve\Steam\SteamApps\''username''\half-life 2 deathmatch\hl2mp</code>
| |
| | |
| :Again, where ''username'' should be your Steam Login name.
| |
| | |
| 7. Under '''Hammer Map Directory''', you should enter in where you wish to save your .VMF map source files. Using the [[Source SDK Files and Directory Structure]], you should enter the appropriate <code>mapsrc</code> directory:
| |
| | |
| :Example for '''Counter-Strike''':
| |
| :<code>C:\Program Files\Valve\Steam\SteamApps\''username''\sourcesdk_content\cstrike\mapsrc</code>
| |
| | |
| :Example for '''Half-Life 2''':
| |
| :<code>C:\Program Files\Valve\Steam\SteamApps\''username''\sourcesdk_content\hl2\mapsrc</code>
| |
| | |
| :Example for '''Half-Life 2 Deathmatch''':
| |
| :<code>C:\Program Files\Valve\Steam\SteamApps\''username''\</code><code>sourcesdk_content\hl2mp\mapsrc</code>
| |
| | |
| == Setting up the Build Programs ==
| |
| | |
| Click on the '''Build Programs''' tab:
| |
| | |
| :[[Image:Setup_BuildPrograms.png]]
| |
| | |
| 1. Copy and paste the '''Game executable Directory''' you entered into the '''Game Configurations''' tab previously, then add <code>\hl2.exe</code> on the end.
| |
| | |
| :For example, for a '''Counter-Strike''' configuration, your '''Game Executable ''' might be:
| |
| :<code>C:\Program Files\Valve\Steam\SteamApps\''username''\counter-strike source\hl2.exe</code>
| |
| | |
| :For a '''Half-Life 2''' configuration, your '''Game Executable''' might be:
| |
| :<code>C:\Program Files\Valve\Steam\SteamApps\''username''\half-life 2\hl2.exe</code>
| |
| | |
| :For a '''Half-Life 2 Deathmatch''' configuration, your '''Game Executable''' might be:
| |
| :<code>C:\Program Files\Valve\Steam\SteamApps\''username''\half-life 2 deathmatch\hl2.exe</code>
| |
| | |
| :Again, where ''username'' should be your Steam Login name.
| |
| | |
| 2. For '''BSP executable''', enter the location of the <code>vbsp.exe</code>:
| |
| | |
| :<code>C:\Program Files\Valve\Steam\SteamApps\''username''\sourcesdk\bin\vbsp.exe</code>
| |
| | |
| 3. For '''VIS executable''', enter the location of the <code>vvis.exe</code><nowiki>::</nowiki>
| |
| | |
| :<code>C:\Program Files\Valve\Steam\SteamApps\''username''\sourcesdk\bin\vvis.exe</code>
| |
| | |
| 4. For '''RAD executable''', enter the location of the <code>vrad.exe</code><nowiki>::</nowiki>
| |
| | |
| :<code>C:\Program Files\Valve\Steam\SteamApps\''username''\sourcesdk\bin\vrad.exe</code>
| |
| | |
| 5. For '''Place compiled maps in this directory before running the game''', add <code>\maps</code> the end of the '''Game Directory''':
| |
| | |
| :Example for '''Counter-Strike''':
| |
| :<code>C:\Program Files\Valve\Steam\SteamApps\''username''\counter-strike source\cstrike\maps</code>
| |
| | |
| :Example for '''Half-Life 2''':
| |
| :<code>C:\Program Files\Valve\Steam\SteamApps\''username''\half-life 2\hl2\maps</code>
| |
| | |
| :Example for '''Half-Life 2 Deathmatch''':
| |
| :<code>C:\Program Files\Valve\Steam\SteamApps\''username''\half-life 2 deathmatch\hl2mp\maps</code>
| |
| | |
| 6. Press '''OK'''. Hammer is now configured for use.
