Suggestion: Easy to use UI

Open jafwefjauwhf opened this issue 2 years ago • 5 comments

One of my main problems with Hammer is the weird, hard to use, and old UI. I just think it should have a UI Revamp like blender did a couple years ago for 2.8. Thank you!

This interface has been used since the days of hl1 and for some reason it triples everything. The maximum that the author of h ++ will do is a dark interface, but some other manipulations with the interface require a complete rewrite of the program.

weird

Exactly designed for mapping purposes. Back in Quake times when it was called Worldcraft it was considered a simplest compared to radiant and others

hard to use

Anyway you might consider Trenchbroom, it provides creativity freedom for brush geometry.

It doesn't support Source so you gotta somehow export .map to Hammer. And since Source mapping is about relying on mostly static prop models placement and Source specific features it not gonna replace Hammer totally.

@jafwefjauwhf Ask Sam to go back to developing his hammer 1.5 🤣 https://twitter.com/SamZaNemesis/status/1537510221018431493

If anything DPI scaling would be nice, but I was able to fix that with compatibility settings
