hopefully, the troubles surrounding detail sprites (not that i've seen any at my end) will have something to do with being able to use a custom detailsprite.vtf.

atm, the only way to use custom datail sprites is to embed them into the bsp, and run that bsp before any others. this will, however, cause any stock detail sprites to be knackered on any other maps loaded after it. not a good situation. <img src=" SRC="images/smiles/sad.gif">

It's a beta test guys - it's very purpose is to iron out bugs and issues. If you have problems, report them and they will hopefully be fixed. If people want something that is stable, they shouldn't use a beta release.

I managed to fix the detail sprite issue by replacing the detail.vbsp file with a fresh one. The old one was there, but it was corrupted (why and how, I don't know).

For those who want to try it once, or can't seem to get the 'old' hammer to work after using the beta.

I got an error after trying the beta once, when I loaded up steam in normal mode ( without -beta sdk), hammer.exe was missing for some reason...buggy update.
Anyway just hit "Refresh SDK Content" and you'll be fine.

It said in the wiki there was dod support..but when I tried with the beta flags I saw nothing.

I know how to set it up manually in a very hokey way, but it'd be nice to have official support for the game seeing as it's been two months now with no new map(s) and no official tools or support.
