Hello everyone! First of all, i have no idea if this is on its correct place in the forums. Then: I used the search bar to search for this problem, but couldn't find any fix. Also did on Google, found some but none worked.
The problem:
1. I start Source SDK, Select Source Engine MP and Team Fortress 2, then i open Hammer.
2. On the 'messages' window a weird red message saying 'Failed to initialize texture system' appears.
3. I try opening a map, and a pop-up with the tittle 'FATAL ERROR' appears. Its message: 'Missing material 'editor/wireframe'. Go to Tools | Options | Game Configurations and verify that your game directory is correct.' It is.
4. Same message appears a few times after clicking accept, until a different one appears: 'No textures are available for use with that game. You must set them up in the Textures tab of the Options dialog box before you can edit maps for this game.' And the 'Configure Hammer' window appears (same tan going to tools|options).
5. Accept or cancel, Hammer crashes.
Now i THINK this may be happening because of a server i joined yeserday. Note before yesterday hammer was working fine (fine in italics because it got frozen while compiling too many times, i think due to the spawn door i was trying to create).
That server was an 'item test' server. like, adquiring shitty workshop items to 'test' just for that server. with a plugin or something, idk.
Aaaaaand yes, i tried Refreshing the SDK content, the game configurations.....
So what's wrong? i actually deleted everything inside the Sourcesdk folder to make it regen it and see if that worked, but apparently the copy of those files it got somewhere was made after i left that server.... wich is wreid, as i didn't use hammer till now. And, well, i guess it's about this, or else i have no idea what is it about. Note i started using hammer 2 weeks ago, so i don't have much idea about it.
I think one thing that may fix it is restoring my sourcesdk files to the original ones, but as reinstalling source SDK didn't do that (rather copy those saved somewhere ones) i'd need someone to send them to me.
Anyway, thanks in advance for the help, if any is given.
EDIT: Thanks Site staff for moving it to the right section, but please i still need help!
