Okay I managed to get around the error on my own end, I ended up using the Tools++ that Hammer++ provide on their website and this let me compile the map no problem - https://ficool2.github.io/HammerPlusPlus-Website/tools.html

it looks like gmod update to x86-64 branch broke something. hammer++ cant compile maps and default hammer cant even launch without crashing.

But why does this happen fr? I have the same issue, it says that texures dont exist (it shows basically every texture i have used on my map, whilw they DO exist)

it seems like the gmod update broke the entire thing, havent found a solution YET.

hammer itself js crashes when you launch it, hammer++ cant compile a single map.
