i'd say you might need to be a little more specific about what happens... or maybe you need to reset the game configs or something

ok here's what i did

first i tried again. no dice

secondly restarted steam. same result

thirdly i deleated the \bin folder and tried again. still no dice

fourthly i tried a SDK content refresh. no dice again

odd thing is, it loads a decompiled argetaen

Refresh SDK Content
Run Day of Defeat Source once
Quit, and close Steam.

Load it up again.

if that fails, I would suggest deleted the SDK folder (Not the SRC SDK folder) and the SDK GCF file and redownload it all.

maybe your map files are corrupted for some reason... which blows, so hopefully its not that.

The file is probably corrupt. Luckily, with the beta SDK Hammer now has autosaving. Go into sourcesdk\bin\HammerAutosave and load the latest backup.

i found you can open vmfs in notepad (the one thing windows did right) and did a little editing to the file. loads perfectly :P
