Eyyyy! This was definitely a part of _my_ childhood since I didn't know the Hammer Editor existed, and then uh... still couldn't figure out how to use it once I did. It's a bit buggy, and it certainly isn't the most advanced tool, but it's very easy to use and a fun relic of the past. Glad that people still know about it!
Yea it has its moments but it is powerfull for what it is, was kinda sad how some called it badunder a random video, and how it started fading into obscurity
Something tells me this would be harder than learning hammer lol, but I do remeber seeing old videos on this game and being confused on how to "unlock" it in portal.
I think this is a good thing not only is apparently a part of portals history, but it helps make test chambers easier and then you can go back and polish them and put them in a test track. I think that’s good if only other games for the hammer editor, had this
fun fact: it also works in G-mod like, you don't even need Portal, it has all the files it needs. so I use it somtimes, and it is was useful back before I learned Hammer
Even though I think it is a bit primitive, it actually looks interesting, and it provides quite a unique way of building test chambers! I can imagine that childhood me would've went nuts to get this, If He knew it existed. Thanks for the video! I always appreciate learning something about this game series' past.
Wow this unlocked some memories! I remember when I was like 8 or 9 i would spend hours just playing whatever random portal maps I could find. I stumbled upon this and somehow got it to work, then had no idea what i was doing and gave up rather quickly.
I'll be honest, I wasn't really a fan of this thing. I came across a video of it one time and I didn't click on it because I felt like it was a little complicated to use. And then came the times I was looking for custom Portal maps to play, and then I saw a map that looked great, so when I went to look at the file contents, all it contained was a save file for that darned map that was po_edit_03. And then I was like... nah. Not gonna do this.
i remember there being a portal 2 version of this, looking at the moddb page its still there but with no download, if i remember correctly it even included a coop mode
Honestly this stuff was really nice back in the day I was looking into the GECK as well for fallout but at the same time too when u get good enough at 3D animation n softwares u can translate all that over to unreal or unity n then pretty much just recreate the assets n make things a lot easier that way have dialogue n even add new types of portals robots have key story moments n cutscenes but yah I still will check this out I wanna make a custom portal game someday but for back in the day this woulda been a godsend
I love your Videos! I am a big fan of souce games, And videos like these are for people like me who want to know more about source games!. Thank you so much!
i remember watching some old video where someone was building test chamber. Also the video was called "portal 1: perpetual testing initiative" (This isn't fake apparently i watched the video)
Hey dude how did you get it working? I have read some stuff and I need a patched gameinfo thing and i keep getting errors that say: can't find background image materials/console/startup_loading.vtf dose anybody know how to fix?
With how buggy Hammer is, and how limited the Puzzlemaker is, even with BEE2, I wish there was a tool that could be both more versatile than the Puzzlemaker in creating not just interesting puzzles, but also cool environments, while being easier to use than Hammer. The Puzzlemaker's easy to use, but it's just utterly pathetic compared to Hammer. You can't even do anything with autoportals, which really should've officially been in the Puzzlemaker. Diversity Vents are understandable considering they never show up as an actual puzzle element in the campaign, but still.
Hey i have an good idea to combine maps Like you could make them in 2 separate maps at least cuz brush limit inst going betwen maps But really at least making a p1 maps that let you play them with 1 loading screen in the game I know it was not your full idea but still I think i would try it myself
I am still making part 2 (it is taking a while yea), still trying to make it only be 1 loading screen while ditching the looks, right not playability is the priority

I remember seeing this as a kid
So much nostalgia
I think I might get this
yea same, it is legit cool, it cant be used as a full hammer replacement or something but it is still cool
I remember thinking this was a part of the base game as a kid lol
Same
Something tells me this would be harder than learning hammer lol, but I do remeber seeing old videos on this game and being confused on how to "unlock" it in portal.
it would honestly be tons of fun if it was multiplayer
It could maybe be, there is a way to play multiplayer in portal 1, tho you would probably just get one square thingy to build with
And then they will be fighting how to build it.

I had this mod!! It was my "entry drug" into map making haha
I wish someone will make a remake of this
ohhh my god this just unlocked some hidden memories. i remember seeing this mod so long ago
Been watching for a few days, it's about time I sub.

call me pathetic but i only use this because i cant use hammer because its to complicated for me so i use this
I only use hammer when I need to hammer a nail.
hammer is complicated asf i literally cannot find the move tool anywhere
I really like how this mod functions, very original and very good idea, what a shame it went under the radar like that

I loved this mod. I even showed this to my friends after school so I was the only one who had PC then.

@@Pacman009 the sad thing you can't install the portal 2 version now
gamebanana.com/mods/39288 actualy you can get it from here. Havent tested if it works tho
@@JukoYTyou should really test it.
i am invested in the story of the portal map maker. i need to know everything about it and if i do not learn about it, i am going to be very angry
I remember this clearly, so nostalgic
You should look at unique co-op maps in the portal 2 workshop
Yea maybe
Can't stop watching this
i remember watching some old video where someone was building test chamber. Also the video was called "portal 1: perpetual testing initiative" (This isn't fake apparently i watched the video)
amazing vid! very explanational!
Thx :)
Lets make a test shall we? *proceeda to hear more gun shots than in an actual FPS Game*
WHY ARE YOU SO FREAKING UNDERRATEEEDDD
the 2nd(?) one almost reminds me of The Ball Pit
imagine poeple remake portal 2 maps in portal 1 with this
Hey dude how did you get it working? I have read some stuff and I need a patched gameinfo thing and i keep getting errors that say: can't find background image materials/console/startup_loading.vtf dose anybody know how to fix?
I used it as a kid (and only recently got into Hammer with TF2 maps), and it's made purely with Hammer logic??
Yea it is purely made with hammer logic. It is probbably placing down templates that are stored somewhere out of bounds
Finally Portal's mod
was that portal epic edition 😭
Nice vid!
Thx :)
Must have been pain to make DX
I remember this for sure
Yet another epic content
Thx :)
oh the memories
