Clipped your metal stairs with blockbullets and it doesn't sound like metal anymore because of that? No worries! This download provides additional blockbullets variants that sound like main TF2 materials when you walk on them: dirt, metal, wood and glass (no concrete, default version is already...

Hey, I wanna try my hand at doing some TF2 mapping and I was wondering if there are any tools or plugins that I should use to make that experience easier. I found Hammer++ and Boojum Snark's mapping resource pack, but are there any others? Thanks!

So I threw together a batch tool from old code with encouragement from: - Mr. Will Alfred#2750 - evader#7238 - Emil_Rusboi#5083 The first release is pretty basic, and requires you copy the .exe to your materials folder, but it works! It uses a template system, any keywords (e.g...

And for anyone asking about my "dark Hammer theme" - I set the OS theme to Windows-Classic-style and I customized the colors.

I hate how TF2 when you type `map` into the console everything freezes while it loads only 1024 maps (which is an issue when you have 3k) and you need to do that every time and arrow down until you get to where you were and then go one below. Made a simple tool which lets you search for what you...

This tool allows you to more easily place spectator cameras in your map through fetching positions in-game. In a source game noclip to where you would like a spectator camera and use the command getpos, in the console there will be an output which looks like setpos x y z;setang x y z copy the...

You know the "Surface Normal" setting in the displacement editor window that always faces up? Turns out you can change the direction of that arrow using alt + right-click on another brush surface. This displacement cube acts as a library of face normals to quickly select. This cube is different...

Several months ago, I posted a thread asking if a tool for analyzing maps and playtesting data (like an expanded version of heatmaps.tf) would be useful. After receiving overall positive responses, I began development. Here are some screenshots of the project in its current state. Right now, it...

A bit of a while ago I've made a small console program to find some of the map errors that 1) fail to compile completely 2) are hard to find. I've put up a WiP in WiP post, spent a week doing nothing but contemplating I swear and finally I think I should post it. The top priorities were entity...

I'm trying to figure out if this is a good idea: A program that shows where things are happening on a map (eg. kills, sticky traps, übers). It would also highlight sniper sightlines and potential perchpoints, among other useful things. You could filter info by class, time, payload progress...

Howdy. Before I start, just wanted to point out that I'm a complete newbie to TF2 Mapping, I just watched some vidoes of Crash and thought "Holy cow, now I can make my OWN maps!111!1". I'm new to this forum as well, so sorry if I'm posting the same thing like 23 users before me. I just want an...

Well, I made a simple Text UI tool for server administrators. It is written by use of Source scripting possibilities only. As for now, menu has quite a few functions, but a lot of them can be added. This tool works by sending RCON commands to dedicated TF2 server and is controlled in-game with...

Trying to use the vertex tool that way shown in the picture doesn't work for me (it simply goes to the upper dot). This strangely worked for me before.
