    I can't even figure out how to go to Tools | Options. There's no options tab for me but there's like properties and stuff. I wish someone would give a more detailed example.

    Solution: You need to add -engine ep1 to the Source SDK Tools launch options, and the restart Source SDK. This will launch the old version of Hammer, without the errors.

    I did that but it's still messing up. It says I don't have the game configurations in. Not just for Hammer but for SDK all together. So I can't load anything in SDK.

    Nope not no more after i put -engine ep1 in the target field you do this by right clicking on the source sdk icon on ur desktop | properties | and put that at the end of "C:\Program Files\Steam\Steam.exe" -applaunch 211 | then restart steam. and it should work after that.. it was due to the update thay did yesturday. they converted it from ep1 to ep2/orangebox.. thats why it doesnt work.
