    Accidentally turned on "Always measures using 1 HU reticules despite grid size"

    I somehow turned it on without ever visiting the options menu. (Probably by messing with the button combinations.) I want it off now. Does anyone know where the switch is?

    Any way to disable a phys_thruster when its airborne?

    I'm not going into much detail, simply I need a phys_thruster to be disabled when its airborne. The position of it is randomized around the map, so I can't do a trigger around the entire ground. I don't think its possible, so is there any workarounds to this?

    Hammer Editor doesn't start anymore

    I haven't worked with Hammer for TF2 in a while. Recently, I tried to start it again, but double-clicking either the hammer.exe or hammer.bat has done nothing. Validating local files with Steam didn't change, neither did deleting the entire bin folder and letting Steam re-download it. The recent...

    Map Crashing for Unknown Reason

    Hello Guys, I know this is for TF2 but I thought you might be able to help as it's still a source/hammer question. I am making a CS:GO map and it keeps crashing people who download it. It seems very random, I have friends on different versions of windows and it seems to run fine regardless...

    HOw DO I DEleT a Thread?

    Hammer is freaking out for some reason and is refusing to compile my map. I have no idea why, and its starting to get on my nerves. Originally, my map was not updating when I compiled it so I changed the name and deleted all non-.vmf files. I have checked that there's no leaks within my map...

    Problem with entity creation

    I got into some trouble while practising map design. When I click my world to create an entity, it spawns a prop_static about 650 HU:s south from where it's supposed to spawn. The problem does not fade if I change the spawned object from the settings, nor does quitting Hammer entirely solve my...

    [FIXED] Hammer game configurations missing

    You know how when you launch hammer it asks you to pick a game configuration? (example: "Half-Life" or "Team Fortress 2") Well for me it isn't showing either. Instead it says that hammer is missing game configurations and asks me to manually set one up. I didn't have to do this when I first...
