Add to the list: When you're getting charged by that alien guy from the underground railroad lookout station, the game freezes. At least, it does for me. :/
@sw5451 You may have to play Portal (just the first level, if you like) in order to prompt the folder to be created... try this and then get back to me.
@sw5451 I've re-read my instructions and the scripts folder is contained within 'source engine.gcf' - you extract that with GCFscape to your portal/portal folder.
@robertghouston robert ive need big help when i try to fix the hl2 map sound by extracting the script and stuff when i start the game it says it has a gam_sound_manifaest file problem so i delete thoughs files then the game has an engine error is there any way to fix this
@IPRANKTheFool Try this: uninstall both games, then go into the actual steamapps folder and delete any residual folders related to the games. Finally, re-download them and once more follow the steps outlined in the video description.
Uninstall Portal and then re-download it. If you have any saved Portal files that you want to keep, simply copy the 'SAVE' folder to another location before uninstall. And after downloading it again in Steam, find portal within the 'steamapps' folder and replace the 'SAVE' folder with the backup.
Follow the instructions on the Primotech web site, if that doesn't work, uninstall half-life 2 and portal, uninstall Steam and then reinstall it and re-download HL2 and Portal. If that still doesn't work, try a maintenance scan of your system (IObit Advanced SystemCare - this is free).
I didn't say anything about something marked maps. Right-click the 'scripts' in your current HL2 folder (within GCFScape), and extract it to 'SteamApps/"ScreenName"/portal/portal' folder. About the maps, you need to visit the link to the Primotech web site (in 'more info' at the top right of this video page).
Thanks, this helped me alot, please tell me if you find a way to fix the bugs you mentioned. Acctually, its just the sounds i needed, and the bugs too of course.
Did you 'Use GCFScape to extract the scripts folder in the hl2 folder within 'source engine.gcf' to your 'SteamApps/"ScreenName"/portal/portal' folder.' Initially, when I only followed the instructions on the Primotech web site, there was no speaking from the characters (their lips didn't even move). Did you follow *my* instructions precisely - all 3 steps?
This is not an official downloadable mod, but you DO have to own *both* Half-Life 2 and Portal. *You* will then create this 'mod' yourself by copying the HL2 files to the Portal directory. Chances are the described bugs will remain, unless somebody finds a solution. But you might have more luck than me with the 'mod'.
But you're not supposed to submerge the portal device in liquid, even partially!

ANYONE HAVING ISSUES WITH DAMAGE:
in console type:
sv_regeneration_wait_time 7200
(Will delay any player health regeneration for 2 hours).
hislipsaremoving 1 year ago
Now that I've been in-game with this.. the default Portal regen rate is set to 1.5, so 7200 might be a BIT high.. but w/e check it out.

Anyone know if this will work with the portal demo? Files look compatible but it won't load the hl2 maps, the ole "map load failed".
I just wanna mess around with the gun a bit, not looking to get the whole game ^^

Have you got a compatible version of GCFScape?
robertghouston 3 years ago
i dont now where to go to exttract the scripts folder
wizzman159 3 years ago
Right-click, and extract the scripts folder in the hl2 folder within 'source engine.gcf' to your 'SteamApps/"ScreenName"/portal/portal' folder.
robertghouston 3 years ago
where is the 'source engine.gcf'?
wizzman159 3 years ago
Look in the 'Program Files/Steam/steamapps' folder. 'source engine.gfc' should be in there.
robertghouston 3 years ago
in the half life 2 folder there is nothing marked maps
