Well ive been trying to make a map because my friend had a super map idea now i can host the map in LAN server mode but i dont know how to host my Hammer map in the dedicated server mode cause it wont show in the map selection/rotation menu. its still a vmf file. Any help for a newb would be great.
Thanks

btw this is for hl2 dm dedicated server.

compiling it might help :E

to run a map you have to compile it - go to File->Run Map in Hammer. Then it creates a .bsp file which you can then use.

You then must place the compiled .bsp into C:\Program Files\Steam\SteamApps\[email protected]\source dedicated server\hl2dm\maps
