If @sooshey's suggestion doesn't work, try verifying TF2's game cache. Go to your Steam Library, right click TF2, open properties, open the Local Files tab, and click Verify Integrity of Game Cache. This will take a while, up to 30 minutes IIRC.

If that fails, a full reinstall of TF2/Hammer will probably fix it (that's a pretty drastic step though, so you should try the other suggestions and maybe wait for more replies before doing it).

Can you not do that to your title, someone in the future might have the same problem you've had and now they have no reasonable means to find the solution via this post.

The worst thing is when they leave the post and thread title, but they figured out the solution themselves so they just reply with "nvm fixed it". And it's some really obscure problem that no one else knows how to fix.

They usually get asked to write the solution for the record, and usually do.
