Just finished chapter one at my own pace, basically watching the video and doing the things as shown in the video. I'm getting a grasp for Hammer, and I'm glad that this series exists! I've always loved making maps in games, whether it is built-in or a community program, so I'm gonna keep following this series.

Wow, I wasn't expecting you to reference 3kilksphilip. I'd been watching his videos on mapping, and it gave me a good start, but tf2 mapping sounds like more my thing. That's how I found you :)

[GentleMannOfHats]

I absolutely love your tutorial and I've learned a few shortcuts i didn't know existed.

[stefvdven]

This series has been very helpful.
Keep posting, there is a lot I want to learn from you.

[sylic]

I like your voice, so i'm staying with you

[quietusq]

Love the series man! Each time i see a video of yours i'm inspired to reopen Hammer and get back to work =D Keep it up!

I have watched every episode of chapter 1, and I can say I am having fun with this editor. I cannot wait to build maps for SFM, TF2, and potentially Gmod and Portal 2 for advanced chamber building lol

[Moonfixer]

I really enjoy these videos. I have learned a few tricks that I'll use when I get back to mapping.

[HolySnickerPuffs]

Oh hey, I'm viewer 7. Nice.

Anyway. I can't wait for Chapter 2.

[FalkVonKrone]

finally i can make my own lumberyard map

[Moonfixer]

Are you planning on making a video in this series concerning map layout?

[manel_vassalo]

Crash, I got some problems, I wanted to make a wall wich is separated from the other by like, 1 centimeter in tf2 scale. Basicly, a second wall, really thin, at the side of the first one. However, I am only allowed to move stuff on the "grid values"... And unless I want a thin wall to be a giant block I need help. Also, how do I make perfectly round surfaces

[Xandoshi]
