Todo: Verify if this issue is still present in the latest releases of the Source SDK. CONFIRMED! STILL PRESENT!

Error message: 

"Failed to load the default scheme file. The map views may be missing some visual elements"
Note.pngNote:This error is related to the Hammer editor.

Possible causes

The error is known to occur when trying to start Hammer faster using a shortcut, instead of the Source SDK GUI. Although, it can also happen when openning Hammer from the Source SDK GUI today (Sept 2009).

Possible fixes

  1. Get SourceScheme.res from one of the GCF files or create a mod.
  2. Copy it to the ...\SteamApps\username\sourcesdk\bin\resource\ folder, or to the ...\SteamApps\username\half-life 2\hl2\resource\ folder.

If this doesn't work, then you can use Filemon from sysinternal's to find out where Hammer is actually looking for this file.

Above Possible fixes need to be... fixed

As there is no such a "resource" folder in today's file structure. The above fixes must be outdated now. Can someone please update these fixes?
