Hey Community,

I want to know, how you got to Hammer
What was your biggest reason or idea to make your own maps in some Valve Map's?
And what do you like most on mapping?

I think there was a thread here somewhere already. Anyways, my friend showed me Portal, and I liked it, so I played it with him and waited for the release of Portal 2. I never used to play FPS games before I saw Portal, and when I found out I could make maps for it and Portal 2, I purchased P2 and started making my first map which came out pretty well for a first. Since then, I can say that now I'm skilled in hammer to do things that fit my taste. I haven't released a lot of maps though, because I'm a bit fickle about which map to work on and I have my own problems, so I've got about 5 WIPs (Bumbleball map and tutorial, someone's PTI map recreation, Rotating Portalgun map, a map for FelixGriffin's gel and a Blue Portals map).
