Canceled Project - Blue Portals 2

[masonery123]

wow, nice! Its too bad u cancelled. I thought the propulsion gel looked a little yuck, though.

[mysteryman141]

Please do not cancel it!

[TheRexonator]

this is not portal gun,this is ultimate portal gun

[Leveleditor]

Portal 2 broked it,that's really sad.

But valve said they would make mapping easier and was going to solve some issues.

If this happens,is there any chance to bring the mod back?

[TheOwenFilms]

How could you! This is a really good mod that me and probably a thousand other veiwers really want to play! If you cancel it altogether, it's gonna make alot of mod players bummed out, dude!

[Noam5050]

i hope you will get back on this,this looks very good

[TwinTurboSpy]

I know that this is old news and that it's 2 GB of stuff, but have you considered passing on the torch, if you catch my drift, or maybe uploading a small part of it?

I mean, who knows, this could still live on in some form, even if modding for Portal 2 isn't the most efficient.

[pivotsodierx2]

aww :c

[megadudeley]

This looks like a bloody animation, mate.

[jared20089]

@megadudeley It isn't an animation.

[Creepernator]

i love the yellow cosy low! and the turrets. you need to release and have a glados like charecter

[zztipp]

Bummer... Looks totally awesome though.

[YTPgirlaph]

Jeez, that looks like it would've been a fun mod game to play. It's still a shame that it was canceled due to the size limit.

[jared20089]

You.. You broke my heart. D:

[starwarslego123]

The portal gun should be able to do that.

[jenya261]

blue portals 1 portal 1 blue portals 2 portal 2

[RazorBeamz]

If you aren't finishing this, can you at least release what you did?

[dinosaurzez]

WHY U CANCEL!

[VIRUSON7]

4:09

I want that gun in Garry's mod!

[Pikminiman]

Question: Did you recreate the Pneumatic Diversity Vents from scratch or did you somehow find a leftover Valve-made resource for them?

[GrandHighGamer]

@Pikminiman All they are is a vent and a few trigger pushes.

[VIRUSON7]

WHY that is calcelled?

[jamchel24]

me sad :(

[appleobsessed1]

FFFFFFF- once again, you’ve made me wish I could map. rrrr

[Aamelo]

This is just like the best mod I ever seen. DAMN YOU 2GB.

[19KaPow91]

this looks soo cool if you are canceling this then at least release a demonstration map pack

[VIRUSON7]

(((

[joerogers11155]

There is clearly SO MUCH untapped potential in the portal 2 engine...this is painful to witness.

[mzaslove]

0:58 you should have made it so the cube would break the button, and you'd have to find a new one. lol, and a new regular cube.

[113mac113]

Who Voices the Turrets?

[reepblue]

@113mac113 Its the same lines from the original. PlanetPhillip Voiced acted for them a while back.

[Thoopje]

Nuuuuuuuuuuu :c don't cancel D:

[warnightify]

Soo...is it permanently canceled , or it will be gonna remaked on Source 2009?

[reepblue]

@warnightify We have no idea what to do with it to be honest.

[FinnishGuy101]

@reepblue release it

[ryanw2ooo]

Too bad. It looks amazing!

[777teg]

can you tell me how you re-textured the goo? please?

[100crisps]

Truly the king of mods

[iGamr]

Well that's a shame... as cool as it is that you'll still be adding to the original Blue Portals, I find it hard to play Portal 1 (and, by extension, Portal 1 mods) after the refinement that Portal 2 brought to the game mechanics and physics. Good luck with future projects, though.

[killbunny90210]

Would it be possible to release the files in shorter sections?

Also, would it be possible to find a host that cold handle the size better?

[al648srobloxvideos]

will you release materials just in case some one else wants to use them?

[Foxiol]

Reepblue let me tell you...You sir, are a beast. Amazing work and amazing ideas.

[jord8851]

Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww. Damn. Real shame, looked amazing...

[ethosaur]

Bloodeh brilliant!

[gamehacker655]

Why not just use Portal 1's engine?

[reepblue]

@gamehacker655 If we kick start this again, it will mostly will be in the Portal 1 engine because I just love it much better to mod, although the visuals will be lack lacking. For once, I'm glad Colossal made all the textures VTF 7.2, so I would not need to convert them if we do so.

Also, why make a equal in a new sourcemod if you can just update the original? There would not be a new code so if BP2 was ever to be done in the Portal 1 engine, it would be a sourcemod that leached onto BP.

[gamehacker655]

@reepblue If you thought SDK 2009 was easier, then why didn't you switch engines?

[reepblue]

@gamehacker655 Visuals, Blob tech, and Portal 2 is whats in now, there is not much of a demand for Portal 1 mods anymore like their was.

[gamehacker655]

@reepblue ah, but you can still improve on your old portal 2 collab designs right? and maybe use them in bp 2 if you ever start it again.

[kiback]

WOW, this stretching portal gun was so good !

[Minecraftdude121]

where's 4:41 ?

[TDIBattler]

You abandoned THIS?! Holy cow! I would totally pay for that! It's almost as good as the real Portal. Almost. ;)

[48vinicius]

How you make the cubes change the size? and make some functions of physc gun?

[reepblue]

@48vinicius Sixense Motion Pack

[Smil2007]

@reepblue Do you have a razer hydra controller?

[Aamelo]

@reepblue Wait? These means the Mod Wouldn't be playable without sixtense?

[ColossalSoft]

@Aamelo It doesn't matter because the mod isn't going to be released.

[nerfman100]

How did you get a mod to work with Sixense? I can't get my mods to work with the pack.

[reepblue]

@nerfman100 You need to copy the bin file with the scripts from the portal2_sixense folder to your mod folder.

[nerfman100]

@reepblue I just tried that in CosmicD's Portal 2: THE CORE. It doesn't work.

[warnightify]

It looked sexy.Bye.

[knizz2]

I want to make a game-company and earn a lot of money, just so I can hire you. Seriously though, hasn't Valve contacted you yet. You *do* stand out among portal-modders.

[TheLastTrainRider]

Do not fret myfriend! Portal 2 was made by the portal/L4D team! When Episode 3 pops out from Valv'es womb it'll surely have the good ol' mapping fun that came with HL2 and the orginal HL!

And if it doesn't! We can always bitch on the forums!

[TheYhrite]

Australian turrets, WHY DID YOU CANCEL!? :L

[sWin129]

Genial!!

[Habzs]

Shame. This was the best mod / maps though.

[DemonEyeOfFire]

Really? Damn... it looked pretty sweet.

But your still working on infestation...right?

[reepblue]

@DemonEyeOfFire Its on and off. But unlike BP2, its not really a group effort, its more me playing with code, and gameplay. I have not touched it since I made the new system for it, and its apparently broken, lol.

[killbunny90210]

I would seriously donate to play this.

Also, I would deal with a 2GB+ download.

You guys should start this when you have spare time.

[reepblue]

@killbunny90210 I could not deal uploading 2 GB. My net is slow that 2 GB will take almost 2 days. imagine uploading?

It was a project we worked on and off a lot, but we are making plans for 2012, and BP2 was not going to budge due to all the issues we were having.

[ARealCoolUsername]

Can you put it in a zipped file so it is not 2 GB?

[knizz2]

@ARealCoolUsername Zip only works on text-files and other files with repeating byte-sequences. Textures and sounds can't be compressed by zip. (same with rar, 7z, lzma, etc.)

[ARealCoolUsername]

@knizz2 oh ok

[dregen137]

@reepblue Can I ask...... what console do you work on and play? Im assuming you use a PC or mac right? Can I ask how you exactly code in Portal 2? I know very little C++ but Ive seen that most of the things work in C++ and was wondering as to how to do it. Any help would be great. I do understand why you stopped though but still seems like great levels though.

[Raulness]

Were you using a motion controller for the electricity thing or did you guys figure out how to use the technique used for the Razor motion control DLC?

[reepblue]

@Raulness Blue Portals 2 used the Sixense DLC bin file. If we shipped, it was going to be as easy as porting the bin file from the Sixense DLC to BP2.

It is the Sixense, be glad Colossal prevented me from making BP2 Sixense only, because I was going too at one point. :P

[crazzywiiboy]

If Valve hires you then there will be a Portal 3!

There's still hope! (I hope)

[RubyCarbuncIe]

Well that's a damn shame, really, these levels look beautiful,the idea of oil instead of Propulsion Gel is excellent, The Pneumatic Diversity Vents work great with that certain cube, and you even found a great and creative use for the Electric Gel, I understand why it will never get released but still, it would've been great to play through these levels or at least see some of these cubes and what not in some Portal 2 maps. Best of luck with future projects you all. :)

[MunchyToast001]

Its oil , we are rich :D

[XMMM94]

reminds me of that razor thing at E3

[al648srobloxvideos]

Might I ask why you gave up on good work?

[reepblue]

@al648srobloxvideos I posted a blog post, its in the description.

[19KaPow91]

is the last part animated

[strnadik]

Aww that´s shame :(

[Hay1tsme]

i am so tempted to want to ask you if i could continue this myself...

[Katsujosh]

0:35

PEEKABOO.

HANDJOB.

HELLO THERE.

[reepblue]

@Katsujosh Its funnier at 0:32 where it sounds like he is saying "ahhh,, Fuck it" *BOOM!*

[doom3134]

@reepblue I wish you could upload it, it looks like an awesome mod! Although I understand that you can not due to the circumstances, although I believe it could be done with alternative sites. Either that or you could leave it up all night. I loved Blue Portals, and your other works are great as well. But this feels like a great big waste to me. Maybe if you upload it, some one else will continue the project? Anyways, good luck on your future projects, and consider what I've said (Please?).

[kloplop321]

This is unfortunate.

[verothix]

This makes me very sad. :C

[reepblue]

@verothix It makes us all very sad. We the developers are sad to see this die, but we still look forward to the future.

[BigBrother1993]

@reepblue was it cancelled due to the levels at the end requiring something nobody actually owns?

[reepblue]

@BigBrother1993 No, The Sixense parts were test demos. The actual mod never required the Sixense. Also note that none of these levels are from the actual mod.

[Craftulicous]

Wow.

[CakeMaster98]

So is this going to be implimented in Stop. Thnik. Refresh?

[ColossalSoft]

@CakeMaster98 No.

[CakeMaster98]

@ColossalSoft Ok, well still I give a big thumb up for all the work that has been put in this even the maps with the sixence (Yours, right?) were awesome.

[reepblue]

@CakeMaster98 I mapped all the maps, Colossal's part was buying me the Sixense. :)

[ColossalSoft]

@reepblue You're welcome, by the way.

[CakeMaster98]

@reepblue hahaha I understand now

[nikicpicha]

Why cancel? :(

[reepblue]

@nikicpicha Read blog post.
