We wuv you lots <3

How long did this take, from concept to execution?

[Patrickssj6]

Past 3 days? Around 16 hours...
But this whole project is around 1 year old. :awesome:

Also...now those nubs on YouTube can't deny that this is real.

[Shadow5561]

That looked really good, I'm impressed. The idea was well thought out. Most people try to make it so you walk through the wall but it's impossible to do that. Making the gun shoot teleporters was a great idea to me to mimic a portal gun.

[Sel]

This is amazing. +rep

[SnaFuBAR]

hahaha that's sick, pat. great work.

[Pooky]

I wanted this, and I'm not a nub :saddowns:

I'll post with generic "wow thats amazing +rep" and ":awesome:" comments when it gets released ;)

[StankBacon]

i gotta say, the shooting sounds are terrible..

other then that, its great.

chiller sucks tho.



-edit- yah i read some of the comments on there, some people are such nubs its sick.

[Patrickssj6]

I wanted this, and I'm not a nub :saddowns:
Wow sorry I meant something else...I mean the people on YouTube... :D




"Please just to clear this out this is NOT a portal mod this is simply a map edit that puts invisible teleporters into the places of exaclty where they" - imstopable14

"faker u added a tele then jsut shot the place then walked into it there no way u can do it" - towelieqmn

"About the whole "Portal Gun", its not the gun. Its the MAP. He just put in invisable teleporters in sparkedit and rememebered where they were. Then he justwent in and shot where the tele's were. Notice they do the same teleporter sets every now and then, shooting in the same places. Fake, 1/5 stars" - sliphantom

etc. ^^

Oh and being repped by Snaf is like...

[Ki11a_FTW]

wow extreme improvement since what i last saw, +rep!

[LlamaMaster]

Kind of last notice, but I asked in the other thread if you could make it more "portal-ish". I made this in photoshop for practice, and to show you what I meant:

Couldn't you make it something like that instead? You said something about not being able to use scenery, but could you use a decal or something flat that would face away from the geometry? I'm sure you can tell I have no idea what I'm talking about, it's just a lens flare doesn't seem very "portal-ish".

[ICEE]

wow..

[Syuusuke]

'Tis Awesome!

[ima_from_America]

Oh, wow. Guess it's time for somebody to buy me a new pair of pants.

'Tis Fantastic.

[Botolf]

Nice!

(Portal themed CE map with this would be doubly epic)

[Syuusuke]

I read through the older video of the Portal Gun with the plasma pistol...

1) They have their reasons to believe its fake.

2) They're idiots.

[Con]

Sweet, nice work man

it could probably be done with decals (or however blood works), but the trouble is it'd look fucking weird when shot near a corner and warps onto another wall or something :X

are you planning to opensource the tags and scripts so, that perhaps we'll see a few cool custom portal maps at a later stage?

I made the app customizable already so you can add any map on any engine to the list. I think I'm going to release the tags...

Llama, decals are a great idea! I have to test them though first...one problem I forgot about is that scenery doesn't sync....vehicles have a problem when modified in memory so I guess I have to test everything first.

[FrostySnowman]

Portal gun ftw!!

This is really great work.

[Hurrvish]

So if I use this app on Halo Trial, would the portals appear invisible?

[Kalub]

You should make the portals animated :3

Swirly red portal-ly goodness..........

[NeiaG]

yeah portally redness ftw

[Patrickssj6]

Swirly red portal-ly goodness..........

Then do something <:mad:>

I'm not a great artist...at all :D

[Pooky]

Why the fuck would you want to use it on Halo Trial. Halo Trial needs to die in a fire, I can't believe it still works online.

[Syuusuke]

Lol some schools play Halo Trial =P

*cough cough*

[Pooky]

Yeah, mine does, and I still hate it.

[Limited]

very neatly packaged Pat, good work.

msn? >_>

[Con]

Patrick, I made some portal decals if you want them :p

[Patrickssj6]

Gimmegimmegimme more...

I have to test though if decals even work...in SP sure but in MP :eyesroll:
But yeah sure give them to me and I'll run some tests.

[Syuusuke]

Can I get busy with you?

In game?

[Patrickssj6]

I could easily make a 16 people portal server where everyone could use the portal gun but right now you guys couldn't see the portal entrances/exits. You could use them though.

I could easily fix that though...using vehicles instead of scenery for the entrance/exit but I want to try decals first.

Patrick get on AIM

[Patrickssj6]

Patrick get on AIM
I'm seeing you on MSN, fucktard :haw:

[Syuusuke]

Stay on MSN. =D

Have you tried it with more than one person yet?

[Patrickssj6]

We just played the map...I must say as host and seeing the portals the gameplay is amazing.

I just need to fix up the minor bugs.

[Syuusuke]

What about clients?

[Patrickssj6]

What about clients?
They don't see the portals...but they can use them ^^

And me as host...with this crappy connection....

[AAA]

Any way you can fix that?...

[LlamaMaster]

So decals don't work?

[m13120]

The gun itself looks like a white.....beetle?

[Hurrvish]

Welcome to Portal :)

[Patrickssj6]
