G2SFixer is a tool for porting GoldSrc GoldSrc maps to Source Source Engine. It features many fixes that will save hours of mindless work.

How to use

  1. Open your .rmf file in Hammer 4.x (Included with every Source game in the bin folder) or greater and save as a .vmf file.
  2. If your map is in the .map format, then open in in Hammer 3.x which can be downloaded from Steam under the name "Half-Life SDK", save as .rmf and repeat the first step.
  3. Click the Find VMF button or just Drag and Drop the file/files you want to repair and press Repair.
  4. Done! Now you can open the repaired map, which will be named YourMapNameHere_r.vmf. This tool should fix most of the problems, but additional work will still be required.

When compiling the map in Hammer be sure to uncheck HDR. Otherwise some textures will appear to be glowing.
