Difficulty: Intermediate
Category: PRTL > Other/MiscAuthor(s): Bloodkirby

Portal Mapping Tutorial

Requirements:

1. The Portal Game


2. GCFscape


3. My speciel file (portal map editor)


How To:

1. Drag and drop the PME-folder at C:\Program Files\Valve\Steam\SteamApps\SourceMods.

2. Use GCFscape and open portal content.gcf at C:\Program Files\Valve\Steam\SteamApps. Find the material folder + the model folder + the bin folder + the sound folder and exract them to C:\Program Files\Valve\Steam\SteamApps\SourceMods\PME.

3. Drag and drop the material folder at the fixVTF.exe, it will go through
and convert any materials that need to be converted.

4. Open Hammer, press tools\options and add "See the two images below."





Enjoy ;)


Support:

If you have the problem where you get the black/purple checkered pattern OVER your textures when you attempt to map for Portal, here is a fix!

1. Download this file

2. Exract material folder to your PME folder at C:\Program Files\Valve\Steam\SteamApps\SourceMods\PME.

3. Enjoy :)

This tut was for the old SDK. This tut is not necessary anymore for the new SDK update.

If you ever get the chance it would be nice if you posted at the top in big red letters or something that this tutorial is no longer necessary. There doesn't seem to be much point in deleting it but just saying that the new SDK is out would be nice so new mappers don't try to do this when it is no longer necessary.
