Been fiddling around with the HL2 Hammer Editor for the last few hrs, managed to make a little island with a barrel on it:

Does anyone else work with this program, or know anything about it? It's extremely powerful but much more complicated then the good old battlecraft, acts more like a modeling program then anything else. Still, pretty easy to grasp if you read Valve's VERC tutorials.

I started playing around with it awhile ago but never got myself to go past the basics.

Nice island!

I still got caves down to a science, light affects, whatnot. I'll see if I still remember how to make torches.

Heres how to make fire:

Honestly, you can find how to make anything on google or wiki.

I've literally spent a decade working with The Hammer Editor. If you have any questions, I've spent alot of time in the Half-Life mapping community.

Fuck yeah vlad Very Happy You are amazing, I will have many questions to ask you.


Right now I'm struggling with creating things like structures and good looking land formations, basically deforming brushes. I can do skyboxes, water, simple brushes. Any way to make things like cylinders, round shit, more detailed brush items?

I'm updating Steam and getting Hammer again right now. I still have some piratey prefabs laying around on CDs that you can play with, Nony. You'll get a kick out of the rope bridge, it took forever to rig.

One thing you guys can do for me is tell me what a good video capture software to use would be. I'd like to record a few things in Hammer as tutorials and toss it on youtube. I've always wanted to put mapping into my portfolio, so this would help me as well.

I personally haven't done anything in Hammer in a while, but you should see what Nugget is working on Razz

EDIT: Oh wait you did.

Hahaha yeah. BTW is that cave map from the original version of Mist still ours, or did we give it away?

Messy Recipe:  deleted all the last couple years worth of bots & managed to preserve the two real people that have posted since then xD

so many DELETED spam posts now tho that I think I'll need to automate cleaning those moreso than i already have

Messy Recipe:  sry about the bots :( been busy & havent gotten round to doing the usual cleanup

need to prolly stick this behind cloudflare or something

Drunken Monkey:  doing well, been building a hobby ranch of my own, got married, no kids, only dogs, sheep and a horse

Comradekil:  so anyway, i wonder how everyone's lives all progressed.. who's in jail? who's grandparents now.. ha life
Drunken Monkey:  and yes....i do miss 1942 aswell, i honestly think it is what drove me to get a M1 garand in real live, and is still my most used rifle
Drunken Monkey:  bots are getting silly
Comradekil:  Sup dudes
Messy Recipe:  the BAR-1918 always felt so good in that game
Messy Recipe:  I miss vanilla 1942 as much as Pirates... need to see if the Origin version (or even original) still has anyone playing sometime
Stealth:  Hello all! Head to the lounge and post a memory!
Stealth:  I saw a BF1942 fraps video of a guy jumping out of a plane and RPG'd another plane. I immediately came here for nostalgia. Miss you all.
Messy Recipe:  I've not tried Sea of Thieves... kinda was bummed to learn its servers don't allow many simultaneous players. gimme 32v32 galleon fights
Messy Recipe:  oh gosh I really need to automate the spambot removal instead of making myself do it by hand don't I -.-
Drunken Monkey:  merry Christmas you lot
[BB]Piccolo:  Anybody playing Sea of Thieves?
[BB]Piccolo:  I'm amazed I actually still knew my login. We Black Buccaneers certainly had a special relationship with you Cut Throats. Nothing like a fierce rivalry to make the battlefield exciting, eh? :)
