If you still thought portal was in any way a technical innovation, its amazing how easy it is to implement in the source engine. I'm sure you've seen the gmod one, this goes a step futher.

Heh...Sneaky Valve...They were too relaxed and now we know they worship God! Burn them all and cleanse our souls! Then we can steal EP2.

Sorry Portal trailer here:

Awesome. In Episode 2, Vortigaunts talk smack and have DBZ attacks. Portal looks fun...that is, unless you get yourself caught in an infinite loop.

My god. Valve is incredible! Will they stop making great game innovations? The answer is NO :) :)

I read a while back on IGN an interview with the portal team. Apparently a group of students came up with the idea for Portal and Valve took them and basically said "run with it". Cool thing is, Valve says that the Portal gun may find its way into Half-life single player in the future based on community reaction. They say they wished that they could have released a small game like Portal featuring the Gravity gun before they took that into the game. If Portal is big, you might see Gordon runnin around with one of those things! :D

A portal gun in proper HL games would suck in my opinion.

That link Jobabob posted is amazing. I recently downloaded a GMOD portal SWEP that works pretty well, but it doesnt maintain physics when changing angles: motion is kept with repsect to the world. Plus, it one-way, and is an instant-teleport. Has that version of the portal gun been hosted yet? It would be awesome to incorporate into GMOD :biggrin:

Not sure i like all the "cavyness." I'd much rather be in some kind of extremely large research facility/missle base kinda... o wait that's already been done.

I think it pretty much has to be as you can't put a portal on the flipping sky

How can you watch trailers for such a short game, doesnt it ruin everything?
Posted 17 years ago2006-08-25 14:04:51 UTC Post #194534

The trailer just excites me more...Provides more questions like what is this rocket going to be used for? Are we going to space? Or are we sending something that will destroy the Combine...Who knows!

Valve said that people loved Dog, so we'll be seeing a lot more of him in the future! I <3 Dog.

Do you think the Portal gun will be included in HLDM?
Posted 17 years ago2006-08-27 13:34:30 UTC Post #194792
Hey, whatever happen to Xen in HL2? I think in HL3, Gordon should revisit some older characters for guidence perhaps. ...Like Nihil...(Spelling..?)

HLDM? Or HL2DM cause no to HLDM and HL2DM - Not sure...But if they did then they're fools.

Just make a seperate DM game...

Yeah, it comes with all the swep stuff zipped inside the rar.

That Portal mock-up is great!

I gotta make some maps for that! It's so much fun, I've played it through 3 times now, and I'm gonna go do it a 4th time!

Anybody with me on makin' some maps?

That mod sucked. Its so buggy its not even fun :/

Posted 17 years ago2006-08-27 19:19:50 UTC Post #194846
Its not the whole mod that sucked, it's just the gun. The gun can't be instant-teleport because it teleports dynamic objects like func_rotatings and buttons (as I accidentally found out : ). Plus, the portal doesnt re-angle motion, like the one Valve is making.

For a bunch of mappers and coders who dont work for any company, I think it's really quite good. You gotta look at the potential :) .
Posted 17 years ago2006-08-28 05:30:48 UTC Post #194891
When I think of potential I look at the single person who coded nebacularwhatever drop, that had all the same features that valve are introducing, only he coded his own engine too!
Posted 17 years ago2006-08-28 08:12:07 UTC Post #194900
It was a good mod I'd say but it just wasnt the whole shabang.
