SmartProp Editor

Edit .vsmart files with a real UI instead of raw text. It supports the stuff you actually need and still works with older formats. You can move, rotate, and scale your models in real-time. Use the built-in presets if you're placing the same things over and over.

SoundEvent Editor

Handling sounds shouldn't be annoying. The editor reads your .vsnd files directly so you can preview and set up sound events. There are presets to get things working fast, or you can build your own setups. It edits your soundevents_addon.vsndevts file safely.

Map Builder

A dedicated interface for compiling maps. You get fast, full, and custom compile options. Want to just build geometry or bake lighting? Easy. You can also change lightmap resolution and keep an eye on your CPU, RAM, and GPU while the compile runs.

Cleanup Tool

Addon folders get messy fast. This tool reads your .vmap file and figures out what's actually being used. Anything else gets cleaned out. It saves storage space and keeps your project from becoming a nightmare to manage.

Export / Import Addon

Move whole addons around easily. You can export or import projects while filtering out junk folders and version control files. It lets you include compiled maps, materials, or models with a few clicks. Great for packaging a map for release or sharing it with someone else.

AssetGroup Maker

Create hundreds of Source 2 assets at once. Just set up a simple config file, point it at a folder, and the tool builds the files for you. It keeps your assets consistent and saves you from doing hours of boring manual work.

Hotkey Editor

Set up custom keyboard shortcuts for different tools. Keep your most used functions right where you need them. You can save different hotkey presets for different projects and swap between them whenever you want.

Loading Editor

Change what players see when your map loads. You can manage screenshots, icons, and descriptions. Take high quality screenshots straight from CS2 and the tool handles processing them into different resolutions. You can also write rich-text descriptions for the workshop.
