Hello all! I just got started with the tutorials:
http://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Getting_Started
http://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Team_Fortress_2_Level_Creation
I tried to create a spawn room in a basically empty map just following that guide... but something has gone wrong. I have 2 teams set up with their spawn rooms and 16 spawn points per team. However each time I start the map, my character (no matter which team I choose) starts way under the map not moving (I would expect to at least fall infinitely but I don't). I can fire rockets and such but can't move and I can't figure out why my map isn't chosing to spawn me in the places I chose.
When I use the "Check for Errors" feature in Hammer it tells me no spawn point has been created. Any ideas of what I'm missing? Thanks!

Thanks a lot! I hope to become a good contributor soon. I played QTF for many years and I love the custom mapping realm. It's what makes the game most enjoyable for me.

i would help you but i'm starting mapping for tf2 too. Have you checked to see if your spawn entities are 1 hammer unit above the ground? make sure their feet are above the ground, not touching it.  Cantrip wrote:When I die, I want to be reincarnated as a woman's jogging bra.

i don't think any of my spawn entities have ever been named. how would this affect them? i don't seem to have a spawning issue with my maps.
