Still no non-steam version :(
...just download the version from the J.A.C.K. official site?
The Windows download for J.A.C.K. on the official site just downloads an HTML file, not the actual program.
Download it from the Valve Developer Union
JACK freezes for a few seconds every time I try to select a group of objects on the grid. How do I fix this?
Is there a way to turn off the autosave a new .jmf feature and make it actually save the map?
Hello, I love the JACK editor and have been using it constantly to work on my mod Occult-Scrim for HL1.
Is it possible to toggle a different kind of SPRITE selection? Often.. if sprite scale is set big - the sprites prevent you from easily selecting things around it. My usual process in 3D view is to keep clicking on sprites and pressing H to quick hide them until I get to my desired selection.

I was able to configure the FGD for lot of entities to use my custom models.
However I was not able to get env_sprite to use my "sprite helper" model

I am able to use sprite helper models for env_sprite in hammer editor for source engine and it greatly helps working with sprites I believe.
Thank you for this great program !!! ; ) I also noticed Paste Special seems to do nothing if you use keyboard ENTER to press OK or if you don't wait about 1 second after the dialog window comes up.

I also have this problem. My current solution is to have a .bat file to kill steam before I try to run jack again
