Guys I know this is for Left 4 Dead but I think most of the mappers here are skilled enough to transfer the same ideas to TF2. I hope this is useful, because it seems like this could be revolutionary for creating realistic architecture and other materials.

Also the introductory pages to mapping in Source are very well written.

While this does have to do with map making, it does not have to do with TF2. Moving to Off-topic.

We do also have http://l4dmaps.net/ you should post it over there as well =)

Sketchup is almost as bad as hammer as far as creating geometry goes :\

To install Hammer, simply goto the tools tab inside Steam, and install "Left 4 Dead Authoring Tools" or "Left 4 Dead 2 Authoring tools"

Why would you build something like that in sketchup? :/ It works way better in hammer. Dar!

Using both tools, you can design and make custom shapes and objects that would be impossible to generate with Hammer alone.
