Portal 2 custom maps texture problem

#1 · September 12, 2011, 12:03 am

Hi everyone, I have been playing portal 2 custom maps for a long time but a few of them have some problems with texture. I checked on youtube if the map was made like that but it wasn't. This is what it looks like:

This is at the elevator looking at the ceiling. It is the same if i look at the ground. If you check "Redcarpet" video on youtube, at the end of the video when he uses the elevator, you will see that there is something wrong with my portal and not the custom map itself.

Anyone have an idea what the problem could be?

Try typing 'buildcubemaps' in the console when you're playing the map. Make sure your game resolution is 800x600 PR higher.

I did what you said but when I do it it exit the custom map but if I load it back everything is fine. Do I have to do that every time I open the game? Also, why is there a problem with the game? thanks
