Watch out. Latest steam update broke hammer.

The 3d view goes crazy. If you go to visgroups/auto and switch off point entities you can at least see where you are but mapping is a big problem.

It's a cherished steam tradition (my hammer works fine though).

My hammer works fine too, but Steam decided to dowload HL2:DM and CS:S from scratch... Using Steam has become more exciting than upgrading ATI drivers. <img src=" SRC="images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif">

I have had no problems with Hammer. Only problem so far is with Garry's Mod, whenever I click "start new game" to select a level to loadd it crashes. Anyone get the same problem?

Well apparently Steam is forgetting that I own HL2. Says it's preloaded and ready to buy. Yet all the mods work... Weird sheit.

edit: Restarting fixed it.

It's not so much hammer that is broken for me, but the way HL handles cubemaps. When i compile from hammer, it doesnt apply cubemaps/reflective surfaces ingame. I have to load a simple room with one cubemap and reflective surface, and then load the complex map for it to work. This problem only occured since thursday.

Dunno if other people experience problems with specularity/cubemaps when compiling from hammer?
