help please

Due to my lack of common knowledge, I keep somehow continuously fucking up every in the way of how I download files. I'll try it how I hear it, but I know I'm doing Something Wrong. Say I want to download the 'Dewm' or 'Frontline' assets. I'll download them, and to be safe, I'll make a file in...

I'm not sure which files go where. I know I have to go to Team Fortress 2 > tf > materials but I am not sure where each file goes. If anyone knows where they go please tell me.

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...

Title basically says it all.

So i am planning to work on something. But i need a special prop. Do you know if someone ever made a banana prop to tf2? I'm not talking about the slippery deathpit banana from mvm but a custom model. I know that there's a banana prop in hl2 and garry's mod, but i don't really know how to export...

I'm looking for a method to be able to create a friendly room for my trade map. I've gotten to the point where I've decided to place a func_hurt with negative values, though this doesn't prevent backstabs and headshots. Any help would be hugely appreciated. Thanks!

For no reason, a weird floating brush is above my point and I cant find a way to destroy it. I tried func_detailing some things around it but nothing works. As you see it is there on my point. But in hammer it is not there.

im using a standard skybox (sky_trainyard_01) and used the recommended setting off of the Valve skylist. and i get this error. *** Error: Skybox vtf files for skybox/sky_trainyard_01 weren't compiled with the same size texture and/or same flags! Can't load skybox file skybox/sky_trainyard_01 to...

So time to ask about another problem. When I run my map, ALL OF THE WATER is invisible. Even if it isn't touching anything. (as shown by pictures of me swimming in the air) However, when you go into the water, it looks like you're actually underwater. I've tried using cubemaps, but those didn't...

So I've downloaded a content pack (Mayann content pack [ http://mayannproject.com/prop_pack ]), but don't actually know how to get the models and materials into hammer. in other words, the zipped folder is still in my downloads folder, where do I extract it? Help please?

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...

Hi guys, before we get into my question, I want to first apologize to the entire tf2maps forum and staff for my lack of content relating to Team Fortress 2 map making and my short livestreams. Both of which are being fixed as I am writing this post. So my question is, is there anyway possible...

The 3D skybox is overwritten by the main part of the map and just looks weird, can anyone help me fix it?

So, my friend asked me if Hammer can make maps that have multiple logic entities, (e.g. ctfcpkothplrsd_madness, or a plr where RED pushes their cart and block BLU from capturing points that obscure their shorter track.) Tell me if it's possible, and if it is, can someone make the logic entities...
