Hammer Speedrunning Thread

Open Hammer. New VMF.

What's the fastest way to crash Hammer from this point?

 

[Wilson]

What if my Hammer crashed before I made a new vmf?

 

[Muddy]

Create instance, save, copy instance, paste inside the instance

 

[Tango]

What do you think crash% is going to be like? What rules should we have?

 

[Tekku]

My pc crashed while it was opening hammer.

The fastest way is (on some builds of hammer) making a new vmf -> Tools -> Debug -> Crash Hammer

 

[iiboharz]

create an entity, open the properties window, right click on the [x] to close the window. instant crash. at least for me for some reason.

It's not entirely to your specs, but novel procedures that crash/terminate Hammer on boot are fun to discuss. Launching TF2 Hammer and selecting the Half-Life 2 game configuration:

I would have just opened the material browser and then scrolled down until the texture memory is completely filled up.
Alternatively, load all three ABS prop libraries.

 

[Crowbar]

Make a brush, select it, press x to enable 3d editing, fly inside the brush, click and drag the void in the 3d viewport

 

[Mâché]

open map properties, then attempt to close hammer
for some reason this always crashes my hammer
