i need some help, i started designing my own map on Valve Hammer, i have been doing this for a few years and i have never come across this problem.
When i go to Run map... the compiler window comes up and compiles the map as as normal, but at the end of the compiling process the game should execute but instead the compiler window just stays there doing nothing and the map doesnt start, i have tried uninsaling SDK programs and re instaling them but i cant get it to work for ANY map on my computer, even the ones valve put in the mapsrc folder.
What can i do about this?

I don't know, this may sound stupid on my part, as you say you having been using Hammer a cupple of years
But have you check marked this box, without knowing you did lol
