Need pictures

This article badly needs some pictures. In many other articles where a Hammer unit is mentioned I, and I'm sure most readers, have no idea whether 500 HU is a long or short distance. Moussekateer 03:41, 4 November 2010 (UTC)

"1/12th of a foot"?

Is there any particular reason the article reads "1/12th of a foot" instead of "an inch"? Toomai Glittershine 18:01, 12 November 2010 (UTC)

To be consistent with the 1/16th of a foot? -RJ 18:11, 12 November 2010 (UTC)

Metric?

Not everyone here understands Feet and inches, how about Metric Equivalents added as well? Nutter 16:43, 20 November 2010 (UTC)

  • I calculated the approximate real-world equivalent working backwards from the mph values of the Rocket Launcher, Direct Hit, and Liberty Launcher. All of them came out to about one-sixteenth of a foot, which is the same as three-quarters of an inch and 19.05 millimeters. Hope that helps. Ledzepmtg 11:25, 10 October 2011 (PDT)

Other Wikis

I think that the contents of this page should really just be replaced by the otherwikis template. The page is a stub, and the Hammer Editor and Source SDK pages both link to the valve developer wiki instead of trying to explain it here on this wiki. Scatmanjohn 16:57, 24 November 2010 (UTC)

I agree saves us the work and we get accurate measurments. Tryer 18:20, 24 November 2010 (UTC)
Pictogram plus.png Agree I think we should link to the Valve Developer wiki as well. I have that page already in my "Source/TFwiki" bookmarks folder :) Ventus 18:21, 24 November 2010 (UTC)
Or how about we just turn this page into a redirect to "Hammer Editor" (which also uses the otherwikis template)? Zoon-li 04:13, 17 February 2011 (UTC)
Done, replaced with otherwikis template Jh9594 17:03, 25 August 2011 (PDT)
