Additional help on the VDC wiki

• For source-code specific issues, refer to the SDK Known Issues List.
• Try posting your question at the Help Desk, under the section that relates to your problem, or check the Answered Help Desk Questions page.
• Search for any mention of your problem at either one of these pages: Source SDK Bugs, Source SDK SE2 Bugs, Source SDK Known Issues.
• Reseting your SDK game configuration might help to fix your problem.

Help outside the VDC

• The Source SDK Forums are a great way to help get answers to problems you encounter. Alternatively, check out the older forums (VERC).

• When posting on the support forums, the following pieces of information can be useful:
  • What operating system you're using.
  • What video card you're using (and in the case of multiple video cards, all of the video cards you're using).
  • Which video drivers you're using.
  • Anytime compiling or running a map is involved in the problem, provide the complete contents of the Hammer Editor compile process pindow in your message.
  • This information isn't always required, but it can really speed up the problem resolution when all information is available.
