Ooh, I never thought of that. Good idea.
Here's a link explaining how to add stuff to context menus so people can replicate it

Also, I had to make mine use the source sdk environment variable or it couldn't find the tools. Not sure how you've got yours set up but this worked for me.
Quote%sourcesdk%/bin/vbsp.exe %1%sourcesdk%/bin/vvis.exe -fast %1
%sourcesdk%/bin/vrad.exe -ldr -fast %1
pause
Here's a load of pre-made .bat files people can drop them straight into their tools/bin dir : I also included 1 threaded versions for people that like to keep one core spare. My opteron grinds to a halt if I'm compiling with both cores, but if I run it with one thread I can keep mapping / doing other stuff in the meantime.
I spy BF2 on the desktop!

defrag as you can see form my screenshot, the batches are in the bin folder so i dont need any env variables

-
Mine are in the bin folder too, but it doesn't work for me for whatever reason.
-
maybe because i included the %sourcesdk%/bin folder to the windows PATH variable too

yall are too fancy. So no one messes with Rad settings anymore to get more gamma or something?
-
I tried various RAD settings and came to the conclusion that most of them don't seem to do anything these days

-final does - it takes x10 as long and looks virtually the same
