so i havent messed with source sdk in a couple years and today i decided to open up a few old projects. only thing is now it only gives me the option to map for episode 2, portal, and TF2. how do i get my HL2DM back so i can map for it? i remember back in the day you had to launch the game first for it to show up but thats not doing anything here. i tried to configure it manually but that definitely didnt work. any help please?
cant make HL2DM maps anymore?

For games that don't run on the Episode 2 engine, you need to open Source SDK with a certain command. I believe it's "-engine ep1" but I could be wrong. Check the Read Me.

Furhter notice!
It seems as if cubemaps now behave oddly when created with the ep1 engine. Yup its a pain but thats how it seems. So if you get corrupted maps after building cubemaps, then recompile your map, move the map into a ep2 game (episode 2 is the most suitable) and build your cubemaps there, and then move it back.

oh wow i did notice some odd things with that...i was like "why the hell did my 357 just turn black?".
another thing...how are you supposed to use bspzip these days? i used to use this gui thing but that doesnt work anymore...and i fear using bspzip these days might be different than the way some tutorials say how to use it...as most of those tutorials are older.
