For those who do mapping on the Source Engine, Hammer++ if for you This ain't me sponsoring, but I found it through a 3Kliksphillip video. What is Hammer++? "Hammer++ is a free, extensive modification of Valve's Hammer editor for the Source engine, with the premise of being a more stable, up-to-date version, with many bugfixes and several improvements present in modern level editors." (this is straight from the creator's website page.) Check it out, I'm not a mapper, but I find the videos and features interesting and needs coverage. Cheers! I don't think this fully going to replace map base for HL2 and it's Episodes, but it's for overall use. :D

Yeah I've been trying it out and it is way better.
Woah, I'm shocked that Hammer is still the defacto level editor... Hammer++ looks like a massive improvement but what I really, really want is Trenchbroom support for Source. HL1 support is a work in progress but I don't think Source is :( Why is Trenchbroom so good? Because the way you can manipulate architecture is SO easy and SO fast to use. Being able to extrude geometry and have it become it's own brush makes it so quick to build things. It's impossible for me to articulate it well so I'll leave this video here showing 3 of it's most useful features: youtube.com/watch?v=z6ZTAxYl6SY
Yea Hammer++ is insane, I watched the Trenchbroom video you sent it looks really insane and is a must-have feature. :D
Why? Why the fuck did ficool prioritize CSGO over Portal 2? You have to pay for the SDK on that game
