Worldcraft/ValveHammer Which Version?

by Aaron Sallade · in General Discussion · 09/30/2002 (10:13 pm) · 8 replies

There was an official news brief about TGE Developers being given permission to use Worldcraft for commercial games, but I cant find it.

I wanted to see which version we can use...

Also, the setup files in the sdk, which version are they for?

Thanks,

Aaron

Use Quark.

Valve never made good on their promise to create a new EULA

Whatever you do, don't use hammer. Worldcraft is better even though it it older. Hammer has more bugs then a hospital.

Trying to install Quark, having a heck of a time, did the minipython, then quark, but it errors out with a code 7.

Running win xp. The log mentions a script error in my truespace folder, which I am suprised it scans at all...wierd

@Tim Smith- That has to be the most intelligent, supportive thing I've read so far, thanks!

So anyway,

It installs fine on my other 3 boxes, a win2k server, an xp pro, and a win 98se. It doesnt work on my main dev box, an xp pro that was upgraded from win98se.

According to the output console, its searching in my Truespace 4 directory (which has perl scripts)

Does anyone have any ideas as to what may be happening?

-Thanks

Maybe you'd have better luck asking that on one of the Quark forums or mailing lists?
