Right then. I'm making a TF2-detailed zeppelin map (probably for SFM or gmod use) and I'm using the large airship from the Frontline Asset pack as a reference for the hull shape. I'm giving it a full interior with as much detail as possible, so just using the model isn't an option. I need to...

"0...1...2...3...4...5...6...7...8...9.Error! Too many detail props emitted on this map! (64K max!)n" i think this mai error 1."Too many detail props emitted on this map! (64K max!)n" this alert mean 'you must have under 64000 detail props' right? 2."prop_detail" add on that count?

Yo, It's been quite a while since I've been on here. I've been pretty busy with uni and all, but recently got into CSGO more and decided to make map. In my latest build of the map whenever I open it it goes to the "Gathering Resources" part of the loading screen and then the game just closes...

somehow, I deleted my Map View tools, and I have no idea of how to get them back. I've looked the issue up on the Valve Developer Community, but the best that website gave me was "The Hammer toolbars can be removed, repositioned, and docked to help you create a layout that will work for you."...

So apparently, you can delete a row of icons from your Hammer editor. I just so happened to delete my grid icons, which isn't very great when it comes to , oh you know, developing a map. How can I get them back? The image shows my missing icons. I need to figure out how to fix this. I literally...

So, my Hammer crashed and once I entered back into it, several textures were wrong. Whenever I run the map, the textures are still how they should be. I have no idea how to fix this, I've tinkered around things and searched the internet, but I still could not figure out the problem. The image...
