Ok, I can open Hammer ok and start mapping for a while, but then it messes up. I can't move the camera around in 3d view, when I try to move in the 2d views it just screws up and I can't see a thing, so I have to close Hammer and reopen it. It will work fine after I reopen it.

I'm not sure if this is a Hammer problem or a graphics problem, because I can play CS: Source without any problems.

Anyone got any idea of how to fix this, or even what it is?

Thanks in advance

Not something I'm aware of so unfortunately not able to help. Only problem I've had is Hammer not saving my .vmf file and thus losing about 6hrs work on a map.

Is only your camera view blocking, or can you still move brushes in the grid views ?

Make sure steam keeps runnin' in the background when you're playing with hammer.

Yeah, I can still move brushes, but the view messes up and i can't see anything, nor does the 3d view work. Steam's always running for me, so no probs there.

I have a feeling this might be another damn graphics problem

I'll leave it alone until Hammer is updated, maybe the problem will be fixed then, sorry to bother y'all
