GUIDE: Setting up Source SDK for BM

Black Mesa Archive Help!
#81

I just downloaded Early Access and I’m getting this error when launching the game:

I’ve done an integrity check and it’s not finding any corrupt files, anyone know how to fix this?

edit: deleted steam, re-downloaded, works now, yes, I was that desperate to play it again :wink:

What is your specs on your computer?

#83

So, how does one get the Steam Black Mesa to work in Hammer? Is it really obvious and I’m just dumb?

#84

You should be able to use Hammer as soon as you have the Steam version of Black Mesa installed.

#85

Yeah, just use the hammer.exe included with Black Mesa (common\Black Mesa\bin) and it’s pre-set up.

#86

Thanks guys. I’m gonna try and make co-op map and see if it works

#87

Thanks for this, because I was wondering if there was something more streamlined or not. I’m not quite ready to open the tools yet, because I am still working out the map on paper (tablet actually). I want to make sure the basic direction and elements of the map are shelled out properly from the very start. That way I don’t get distracted by unnecessary details.
