Page 1 of 2Next

right i know portal 2 is out and your gonna say why dont you get portal 2 well i do have it but it wont launch maps on my system and i was hoping that somone could point me to a map for portal 1 with all the portal 2 stuff (gels faithplates ect) just so i can prove to valve that it is posible for portal 2 to work in the old source engine

Valve knows they could have chosen to waste a lot of time on making their game work on even older machines than it already does. Glad they chose to put effort in making a quality game, instead.

Portal 2 should run on a 2004 game machine, the minimum specs are a Pentium 4 3GHz and a Radeon X800. You could try updating your video drivers or if your PC is that old just get a new one. The source engine is very friendly to old PCs compared to what most games use.

Portal 2 has new entities that Portal dont, it uses scripting, it also has blob tech, improved particles, New models, textures, that you cant convert, but portal 2 can work on low end computers.

I run portal 2 on a laptop with a 2.13ghz processor and integrated graphics. Generally I can have everything set to the highest quality too. If portal 2 doesnt run on your pc, then its time to update mate.

I think in terms of boolean variables. Generally, it makes things easier.

Your video drivers are outdated, update them and try again.

If that doesn't work, I had an issue on my laptop where the map would launch but a couple of seconds in, it'd crash. It appears to be linked to integrated graphics. I can't remember the exact fix but it had something to do with deleting a config file every time you wanted to play.

my problems more like it finishes the map load but then the graphics display crashes 3 or 4 times then it goes to blue screen but ill do the update and try your idea
