Uhh, I just tried to run hammer but I got a wierd error saying this:
mountfilesystem (312) failed: SteamMountFilesystem(1074,312,0x11ecfc74=,0x11ecfd74) failed with error 5: No Steam Content Servers are avaliable.

The hammer application doesn't even appear, it just says this... Any ideas?

Same happens here with the Beta SDK and the regular SDK.

Use the SDK while you're offline.

Offline won't work, you get a similar error:

MountFilesystem(312) failed: SteamMountFiles(2288,312,0x12acfc74=,0x12acfd74) failed with error 201: Cannot perform this operation when offline

Offline won't work if you don't know how to make it work.
I'm using it every day with the beta SDK, and it works well.
(anyway, just kidding about this "how to make it work", I don't even know how I did it)

On the same topic as this, when I tried to compile my map I got an error saying that 'vbsp.exe' needs to close, but it doesn't close. When I go into portal, the map isn't there.

Any help?

EDIT: this happens right after it says "Building physics collision data... Done (0)"
