Someone has found a fix but you need to keep swapping al of the binaries and files so I cba....
If you're gonna be a lazy ass, don't moan about it.
I can't wait for them to fix it. I want to try out the new "Sculpt" tool and the Manifest thing.

I'm lazying because its my day of college today and I had a extra day of college on Monday because it was bank holiday Monday and Valve screwed my weekend up because I was going for a mapping weekend plus the Monday and today :/
On the one hand, it has given me more time to think up things to map.
I hope they fix it once I get bored of thinking.

If that works, I love you.
[b]Edit:[/b] No, I don't love you, it doesn't work! You mean that option in Source SDK's options in steam right?
My Source SDK is already fixed.
I've been mapping for TF2 and Ep2 continiously, never switched binaries, and my Source SDK is set to update automatically.
What's going on? :raise:
Run hammer with the command line option "-dxlevel 80". Works like a charm.
[QUOTE=Disseminate;21758296]Run hammer with the command line option "-dxlevel 80". Works like a charm.[/QUOTE]
Usually running hammer on a lower level of directx causes other problems. The only better solution I can think of is by going into a OB game or mod's directory, and changing the value of "SteamAppId" to 440 in the GameInfo.txt

You fucking idiot, it's too late to do that.
If you had turned off auto updates before the update downloaded, then you wouldn't have the update.

Only works if the SDK wasn't updated before you turned that on. Now it has updated the GCF you are fucked.

It will turn back to "automatically update" - option.
The trick is to launch SDK, override the new files with old ones, and then launch hammer.
Works somewhat ok.
I use this time between to go out and make photos for new inspiration.
But on the other hand: What's taking so fucking long...

It shouldn't be up to us to fix a mistake Valve made.

Yeah man. Why he gotta be so harsh bro.
Its not as big of a problem as you all make it out to be. since I have the preupdate binaries I just start SDK, copy it into my bin file, then start hammer. It's not that hard, don't be lazy.
Alternatively, use the tf2 one until the others get fixed.
Also, valve are under no obligation to fix it, so stop acting like they are.
They have no legal obligation.
But if they give a crap about their users, they should fix it.
Someone should at least notify about the issue. It's not even listed on the VD(c) wiki.
Mount TF2 with your game/mod and see if that fixes it, ignore the TF2 content.

What?
If they give a damn about their userbase, which from their past running shows they are, they are obligated.
[QUOTE=St33m;21763097]They have no legal obligation.

Quite the opposite. Valve has lots of interests in sharing the source sdk with the user base.
Dose anybody know if it is fixed yet? I'm at college so I wouldn't know....
I hope they have fixed it :/
Still not fixed, but I think you will notice when it does. Mapping section will be much more active then.
[QUOTE=playelite;21764867]What?

They are not legally obligated, or even morally obligated. They offer the sdk tools out of the kindness of their hearts. If it broken, then so be it. Yes it is annoying, but maybe you should just use a workaround till they get round to fixing it. As i said, tf2 works fine.
Hope they fix the update soon.
