Valve released a new update today for the Source SDK, this update includes the .vmf source files for many of the official TF2 maps. Here's the list below:[br]
According to a new post in the TF blog, this will give an example on how Valve creates maps and will give you an easier entry point by allowing you to alter or edit an existing map by providing existing maps to work with so you don't have to start from scratch.
Valve is also planning to get more TF content source out in the SDK, so look for more maps & model sources in the future. The full change list after the break. [br]

Hammer:
- The texture browser automatically ignores most textures that cannot be placed on brushes or displacements, as well as anything inside a .svn folder for those using svn as their choice of versioning software.
- Added additional auto visgroups for sprites and cubemaps
- Separated the VRAD calls into two sequential while using HDR (-ldr and -hdr) instead of -both
- Model browser is now created once per session
- Displacement brush dial now has greater range
- Added a stop button to sound previews
SDK Launcher:
- Added the ability to edit game configurations with vconfig
Source Code:
- Added a new template mod that replaces the old 'advanced' source . This template has options for teams,classes, sprinting, prone, stamina, etc.
- Added shader source; fxc.exe, psa.exe and vsa.exe must be placed into the dx9sdkutilities folder and you must modify materialsystemstdshadersbuildsdkshaders.bat to set your paths.
- Most tonemap controller options now work in multiplayer. The 'template mod' map 'sdk_teams_hdr' demonstrates this.
- All three mod types by default mount the required appids - Multiplayer uses 218 and mounts 320 for example. Gameinfo.txt contains a new entry 'AdditionalAppId' for this purpose.
- Particle systems can now be defined with a per-map manifest, similar to soundscapes.
- Fixed a number of issues which caused the server to not compile in linux
Multiplayer Source Code:
- Players animate with the new animation system that came along with TF2.
- Fixed third person animations and all effects
- Fixed SLAM issues
- Fixed Use of UTIL_GetLocalPlayer on the server in various locations
- Fixed a number of other bugs / asserts
Singleplayer Source Code:
- Fixed a number of issues preventing the source from functioning correctly
- Added new vehicle "hl2buggy" so that users may have both the charger and the old buggy
