    Ok as a complete n00b to hammer, but otherwise modest genius, i'll beta-test all you guysies instructions and see where i get.

    Cheers

    I have, and my emp_island_hop is coming along nicely because of it.

    (that's when hammer doesn't crash during the middle of something and somehow the autosave gets corrupt... save my file in the wrong directory and i have to spend 2 days looking for it... or just plain give me a pain in the ass with so many errors.)

    In fact, you just gave me the courage to go waste a couple days of my life trying to get hammer to work properly.

    Yes this has helped me quite a bit in my first empires map. We all appreciate your effort.

    ill probably use it to work on my map idea that i came up with, but i already mostly know how to use hammer. we will see.

    k yea, i wont need it, i already know how to do this stuff, but i wish i had had something like this when i first started to map, its alot clearer and more straightforward then some other stuff out there.

    edit: nvm, i needed a refresher :). could someone put some stuff on lighting in there?
    for some reason my map isnt saving a BSP file, so i cant compile it. any help?

    ok noobish question...
    i did the first few steps in your magic mapping guide, very nice by the way,
    and for some reason my map doesnt show the texture, not even the default one of white...
    is there some button i have to press to get my block to show texture?

    If you are talking about the 3-d view in hammer, you probably don't have it set to textured. Somewhere in the view menu there is an option to change it. :)
