Uhh this is starting to get disturbing. I don't have any kinda brush entities in my Hammer entity menu. The only funcs I have, are func_fishpool (CS:S only, I don't even have CS:S) and func_ladderend.

I have tried updating my SDK content and stuff like that, but I have no brush entities. Things might get really challenging if I don't get them somewhere.

Any help from you, fellow Hammer-wielders?

Have you tried just typing the name of the entity you want in the field? Because if that doesn't work, then something's up.

Are you in "map->Entity report..."? If so, make sure you have "Include Hidden Objects" and "Everything" checked; and "By key/value" and "By Class" unchecked. If that doesn't work, see if cordon bounds are off.

No, he's saying that when he tries to create a brush entity, there's no selections beside the two that he named.

Weird, in Hammer options I have a whole list of Brush entities the list of "Default SolidEntity Class" but I can't access them from anywhere. For example if I make an entity, there's just point entities.

and..
I have these three .fgd files in Hammer:
base.fgd
halflife2.fgd
sdk.fgd

Ah, wait a second... this might be a stupid question, but have you tried selecting your brushes that you want to be the entity, right-clicking and pressing "Tie to Entity" (ctrl + t)? It sounds to me like you're trying to make a brush entity without any brushes to use.

Eh...So THAT's what it means... Now I'm embarrassed. :eek:
Sorry guys, I was the stupid one. :D

Thank you all for trying, and sorry for wasting your time. :)
