I just went through the Counter Strike 1.6 tutorial on making your own map. Great tutorial btw. I was having some problems in what would seem the most common place for a n00b to have problems in. When I compile and run everything works fine. The file 'mapname.err' isn't created. (in my case it would be '01test.err') When I hit any key to continue, Steam pops up in the store and I have options to buy Counter Strike 1.6. Heres the thing, I don't have 1.6. I have CS Source. What would I have to change in the batch file besides the destenation of the maps relocation. Just for reference here is what the batch file looks like.

@echo off
hlcsg 01test
hlbsp 01test
hlvis 01test
hlrad 01test
copy 01test.bsp "C:\Program Files\Steam\SteamApps\lxlmagnumlxl\counter-strike source\cstrike\maps"
pause
"C:\Program Files\Steam\Steam.exe" -applaunch 10 -dev +sv_cheats 1 +map 01test

Any and all help would be great. Thanks in advance.

You don't make CS:S maps using the Valve Hammer Editor listed in the tutorial.

To make CS:S maps you must run Hammer Editor through your Source SDK.

To find your Source SDK do the following.

1. Open Steam.
2. Select My Games.
3. Click the Tools tab.
4. Double Click the Source SDK tool.
5. Choose Hammer Editor when Source SDK is installed and running.



Your problem I believe is you are trying to make Source maps in a Hammer Editor that isn't made to make Source maps. Hopefully this helps you.

alright so, I didn't have to download and install Valve Hammer Editor? A Hammer Editor comes with the Source SDK? If so am I right in assuming I can uninstall the Valve Hammer Editor? Another question can I open maps I made with the Valve Hammer Editor wth the new Hammer Editor for CS Source?

You don't need the one you downloaded, you can uninstall. I'm not sure if you'll be able to open the map you made.

Time to change the tutorial to read THIS IS NOT FOR CS SOURCE.
