error message: "Failed to load the default scheme file. The map views may be missing some visual elements"
The Cause
For me (Nova), I got this error when trying to start hammer faster using a shortcut, instead of the the source sdk GUI.
The fix
get SourceScheme.res from one of the GCF files or create a mod, and get it from that.
copy it here: SteamApps\usrname\sourcesdk\bin\resource\
or try here: SteamApps\usrname\half-life 2\hl2\resource\
if this doesn't work, then you could use Filemon from sysinternal's to find out where Hammer is looking for this file and then place it where hammer looks.
