There's something even better than this: Use that cheat, but then use the ccommand "Map [ Map Name Here ]", and picking the starting HL2 map. Portal gun in HL2 :D

Here is a mini-tutorial for the "skin" mod in Portal to make Chell dressed in camo. first download this www.fpsbanana.com/skins/53296. then go to computer in the start menu, and go to C:\Program Files\steam\steamapps\(username)\portal\portal. when you get the rar. file downloaded you should see a folder called Materials drag this onto the 2nd portal folder and start up the game! To remove drag the Materials folder to the desktop.

oh and i have to hit "G" if i want the grav.gun
Duct Tape Dude in reply to levatorFeb 13, 2010. 4:24 PM
You just don't wanna go into *thirdperson mode or look in a portal with 1 on the floor and 1 on the wall derectly in front of it with grav-gun equipped. Trust me O.O *type in sv_cheats 1 then type thirdperson
Duct Tape Dude says: Feb 12, 2010. 4:30 PM
I figured out a cheat for the zombies/headcrabs/fast/poison zombies

do the sv_cheats 1 thing then for normal zombie type in "npc_create npc_zombie"  (no quotes)  for headcrab "npc_create npc_headcrab" (no quotes) for fast zombies "npc_create npc_fastzombie" (no quotes) for poison zombie "npc_create npc_poisonzombie" (no quotes) for the lols type in "npc_create npc_zombine" (no quotes) to rapidly spawn them type bind (letter here) "npc_create npc_(whatever)" EXAMPLE-  bind z "npc_create npc_zombie" (WITH quotes)

follow the freeman. Gordon is right on this. it started when half life came out. But i give you credit for doing this. it probably will teach a few how to do this.

You CAN NOT use this on level 18 to fire at the turrets. Works on other chambers though

how do you get portal on a pc
halonoob1234 in reply to zpersichettiSep 22, 2008. 4:14 PM
get steam, go 2 the store, and buy portal.
Ward_Nox in reply to zpersichettiJan 29, 2008. 11:55 PM
orange box pc version theres also a way to load the portal gun into HL2
peach_fart in reply to Ward_NoxMar 17, 2008. 5:53 PM
its called garrys mod. you download & install the swep Handheld Portal Device, have hl2 on the same steam account and play on a hl2 map.
Ward_Nox in reply to peach_fartMar 18, 2008. 5:31 PM
actually if i remember its as simple as loading HL2's maps into portal

would there still be all the enemies and allies like Alyx and the citizens?
kobimaru in reply to peach_fartJun 15, 2009. 5:00 PM
There would be generic sounds, such as firing weapons, Combine beeping, and scanners, well, scanning, but as far as talking, no. The classic CP who gives orders to pick up cans is silent, Dr. Breens never ending broadcasts are mute, and citizens are as silent as Gordon himself. But, there's portals! So who cares!
kobimaru in reply to kobimaruJun 15, 2009. 5:09 PM
But the people are there. Just no speech.
DavidKaine in reply to kobimaruMar 4, 2010. 1:04 PM
Instead of loading the maps into portal or using garry's mod, there's an easy way to get the portal gun into hl2 and play through the game with it.  I, uh, don't remember what it is right now.  You open a GCF editor and move a file from portal to the hl2 directory iirc.  I'm sure google will help you.

This is a nice instructable it just requires a little bit more planning and to explain what is happening during the instructable. :)

mine doesn't do #1 why????
curtisseligson says: Apr 25, 2008. 4:47 AM
There's actually an easier way of accomplishing this step. If you go into the options of any Source game, and under the controls options tab click the Advanced button, you can enable Developer Console. This can then be accessed at any time in the game by pressing the "~" key. Just saying, there's an easier way.
NICKSTER117 says: Apr 12, 2008. 9:29 PM
Its actually easier to go to "options" go to the keyboard tab, click on advanced keys or something like that, and check the box that says "Developer console '~'". to access the console, just press ~ at anytime. if u have it on and your in the menu, it will close. also ul need buddha. just type in buddha
yx516 in reply to NICKSTER117Apr 13, 2008. 3:58 PM
impulse 101 into console, NOW can we have a instructable for portal gun in regular hl2 :)
dUc0N in reply to yx516Apr 15, 2008. 11:33 PM
I actually just saw that in a magazine... try googling "how to get portal gun in Half Life 2" and it'll bring some stuff up. Basically, you need to use the level editor to import all the HL2 levels into Portal, then play portal (it works because they all use the Source engine).
yx516 in reply to dUc0NApr 17, 2008. 9:27 PM
thanks dUc0N!
peach_fart says: Mar 17, 2008. 5:56 PM

Source is the greatest engine ever made.
