My problem is that i can't create a server, when i create a "standard" map it comes to: Creating Local Game Server, and then i just crashes with no error or anything, i can't neither create a server with my own map, i use the line:
-game brainbread -steam
In the: Additional game parameteres,
is that right? What can i do to create a server?

Edit: When i use the upper line, it loads BB but shuts down 2 secs after:S

your commandline isn't needed.
Here is some help how to start a dedicated Server:

Huh. I've never had problems with creating a server. Except for a little thingie with my firewall that won't let anyone else play on my server. But apart from that it's cool wink.gif
It should work with the "create server" button above or below the "join game" in the bb main menu.

Weird!
Now when i run my map in hammer it says something like: Program cannot find decals.wad in DEFAULTGAME!

What can cause that? And how can i create a server that actually works?

For some reason if you are trying to run a Brain Bread listen server from steam, the program will close. It could be a few people or I think it could be the fact that brainbread is still in the WON era and doesnt' support steam. I could be wrong though.

If you are trying to run a dedicated server, I use the following command in serverdoc and my batch files.

e:\HLServer\hlds.exe -console -game brainbread -secure -port 27020 +maxplayers 4 +map bb_chp1_heavensgate

change the e:\HLServer\ to where your HLDS is installed. This can be run at the command prompt or in a batch file.

I don't understand your first question about hammer, is this when you open hammer? If so, in the Configure Valve Hammer Editor, do you have less than 8 WAD texture files selected in the Textures menu? Is the Game Configurations and Build Programs correctly setup for BrainBread? Or is this during the compile process, which normally happens when there is more than 8 WAD files.
