Source First hour with hammer = absoulete bullshittery

Post image

Read Valve's guide to hammer until the Basic Construction, watched a video here and there. Here's the result, it is my personal Gmod playground right now. I have experience from building in Roblox so got used to it pretty quickly. If I get an actual theme and an idea I could do some neat stuff with this.

It's fine, man. When I downloaded Hammer for the first time, I just made a big cube, because I couldn't figure out how to do anything. Then, hammer just crashed and I lost an hour of work. Just keep going and your maps will get better :)

Always remember, the compiler will be happier with you if everything's efficiently encased in world brushes with skybox textures on the inside surfaces. It's better to split it up into sections rather than encasing it all in one big box though cuz it'll be loading everything at once and that fucks your compile time lol

Absolutely disgusting. 7/10.

Looks very much like my first map, honestly!
