Hello, all. I'm very new to Hammer and mapping in general (and I know that trying to run before I can crawl is not the best idea) but I'm trying to do some testing on an idea that I had- a Control Point that raises while you cap it and drops back to a base position when you don't. (Once it...

Hi, Ive been trying to make a cool little addition to my upcoming Payload map. What i want is for a brush that can move and rotate in all directions on a trigger. So if the trigger occurs the brush will move like 16 HU forward or rotate 10 degrees. Is this even possible?

So I'm making a payload map, still not sure if I want it staged or not. So far I've made the area where the match starts (before the 1st capturable point.) I know that there are a lot of wrong things right now in the map, however, I couldn't think of anything to add in terms of defences for...

Hello everyone. I'm pretty new to Hammer and been making little maps and stuff like that. But I've heard of 3d skyboxes, watched a few vids on em, and still have no idea what it is or how to set it up. Anyone got any ideas?
