no custom stuff showing in hammer

[grazr]

So, i have some custom content i'm trying to use, for both Panamint and the ctf contest, but none of it shows in hammer.

Any ideas?

Don't ask me whether it's in the right directory because out of shere frustration i dropped the files into every directory and they still don't show in hammer.

Can hammer find the vmt files in the directories? Because when I tried making custom stuff it just appeared as purple checkers until I had applied it, refreshed, applied again and refreshed again.

Refreshed sdk content, you mean? Right now i am getting purple checkers for textures, they don't show up in the texture browser, and models don't show either.

Edit: doubling checking, models are showing, but textures arn't.

Would this fall into the 'update broke hammer' category? Or have valve fixed it?

I don't know.. i just realised the swamp pack is working for me, so custom materials are working, just no sprites. Having looked into it more, no sprites are showing up in the textures browser, but sprites still work if i type in the directory manually. Just Psy's custom "ctf block" sprites are showing up as purple checker boards.

I'll go look at the vtf's...

edit: got it working.. heh
