TF2 Mapping
I'm having an issue compiling and running my map. I'm following UEAK Crash's tutorial playlist and at the end of episode 3, he compiles and runs the map instantly. My issue is when I try that, it finishes compiling but doesn't run it in tf2. The solutions from another forum didn't work for me. Any ideas?

replace
$SteamUserDir\Team Fortress 2\hl2.exe

with
$SteamUserDir\Team Fortress 2\tf.exe

or any other .exe in the tf2 folder such as
$SteamUserDir\Team Fortress 2\tf_win64.exe

i believe a recent tf2 update renamed hl2.exe to tf.exe but im not sure
hammer still wont run my tf2 map even tho yeah its set to tf.exe, iv alsso tried tf_win64.exe

iv figured out how i can run my map, simply i just open the game, click create server, select my map and yeah thats how i can test it, just run map to compile it then open tf2 head to create server and look for your map, you should find it
