Hammer asks for a gameinfo.txt for ns. NS does not have a gameinfo.txt. Arg!

Second question...hopefully the first question will answer this one...

I've set hammer up to use ns.wad but when i browse through the textures, pick one, and apply it to a brush, the brush is pure white... actually the brush is white when i build it, not just when i use a different texture. So the textures don't seem to be working although I can browse through the wad and pick a texture with no problem.


First time editing for ns although I have extensive experience with worldcraft/hammer....

    Uh.. you shouldn't be using the Hammer 4.0 for Source to make normal NS maps.

    I've managed to kill the gameinfo.txt bug and acctually build some HL1 brushes in hammer 4.0 but the end result is that textures don't show properly, and pretty much everything crashes the aplication (if not the computer).

    Don't bother trying to map for NS in hammer 4.0

    Or give <a href='http://www.planetquake.com/quark' target='_blank'>QuArK</a> a try if you feel uncomfortable with hammer <!--emo&::nerdy::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/nerd-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='nerd-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    OMG USE RADIANT. You could look in the mapping help and troubleshooting thread, there is a stickied topic with about 3-4 good options. Once you have picked one, then either read up some of the basic tutorials on it, or harrass someone else who uses it for more help.
