christ how do you map with all that wasted space on the right of the screen
christ nightwalker, sort those tools at the right out.
Drag the manifest window unti it's floating, then close it, you will never use it. Ever. Never ever.
Then drag the others until they fit in one column. (you miiight need to make the visgroups one a floating window so that you can make it slightly shorter, but they might fit as they are)

What is this, a Hammer for ants? It needs to be at least three times bigger!
If you really need to post screenshots of stuff you're doing in Hammer, press shift+z after clicking in the 3d viewport. It'll zoom it to the maximum size of the window. Shift+z again to reverse it.
Just by eyeballing it the map looks underscaled to me, so you should really drop in a player start point and do a test compile so you can run around and check distances. Doesn't matter if vis succeeds, you can still explore it.

it currently is 7000 by 3000 units, with a underground and above ground area.
I'm also having trouble with the textures not saving. Is there any way to prevent this?

It's not that, I'm using Flat becuase thats all nodraw ATM. When I tried to texture it, Parts would keep going back to nodraw.

I appreciate the feedback! :thumbup:
players can get on top of the overpass track now, do you think the capture point would play out well up there? there'd be added stairs and such, but maybe it would stand out a lot better up there?

Which button do you use to texture? If you select the brush and use :applytexture: then the whole brush gets the texture. it probably goes back to nodraw when you check it from the other side to reverse it. If you use
then its the right tool and in that case there might be an other issue.

A while ago I had this one brush that would keep changing textures. I thought it was a ghost haunting hammer so I got rid of it.

It's another problem then. . . Dang it!
Says someone who puts up with hammer's shit. Seriously, poly modeling is no harder than hammer.
Ever made a playerclip around a prop for collisions? More complex than poly modeling. Ever tried making a displacement for a triangular area and had to hide one corner of the displacement? More complex than poly modeling. Ever had to package new assets into a map's pak file? About the same complexity as exporting models to source.
