Where is hammer level editor?
I couldn't find it.
"A set of Source 2 tools for building new levels will be available for the game, enabling any player to build and contribute new environments for the community to enjoy. Hammer, Valve’s level authoring tool, has been updated with all of the game's virtual reality gameplay tools and components."

i asked around, seems like it's not there. i've also snooped around steam and the game files to no avail.

Same, I usually spend more time in the editor than in the game itself, so I hope they'll release it soon...

I keep hearing that but where's the source? Is there a Tweet or something that I missed?

Valve has always released their tools some time later, give it some time.

I'm eager for the editor as well. If it wasn't going to be available at launch, they shouldn't list it on the product detail page as "Includes level editor".

They should've at least clarified when the editor releases, because the phrase "ships WITH the game" certainly isn't true.

I thought I saw someone go into the Steam VR App and they could access the hammer from there.

I am pretty close to completing the game, and figured I might as well begin looking into where the modding tools are.

So far... its only the console? Maybe they did not get the map editor ready for launch as promised?

I found this... looks promising:

Yup... the tools are already... ready. Go nuts :)

That's the editor for making new maps for SteamVR Home. Since they both are using the source 2 engine it just happens to work by coincidence.

I am sure it won't hurt to make a few maps with it now. I mean, while we are all in quartine we got nothing better to do.
