Miscellaneous Portal 2 mods, assets, tools, and non-map downloads.
The 3D skybox models thread
So you wanted to make a 3D skybox for your Portal 2 map, browsed for skybox models but didn't find any and now you are disppointed. Don't be! This zip-file contains some skybox models that could get you started. Copy the contained folders into the model folder. You can create your own skybox models from the existing models in the game without any modelling experience when you follow these tutorials: 1. Decompile the model you want, as explained by Skotty here. 2. Rescale the model as explained in this tutorial on interlopers.net 3. Compile the new model following Josepezdj's tutorial here. If you do so, let me know via PM or upload the file attached to a reply in this thread and I'll add your models to the zip-file.
Falling Laboratory Monitor
An instance for a lab monitor that sparks and falls of a wall when a portal is placed behind it, like the security cameras do. Just chuck the instance in next to a portable wall, change the skin parameter and BAM instant success. Feel free to open it up and stuff with stuff if you want, doesnt worry me. Version Log: V1.1: Fixed rotation bug V1.2: Bug fixes
Gravitymod v.2
This version makes the gravity gun compatible with beemod1 Have fun Happy gravitying
Marlow's Coop Airlock Spawn Instance example
I've spent the last few days remaking the coop airlock/checkpoint spawn. I've tested that this works with the stock coop spawn. If any bugs are found let me know. This is made to be dropped right between two chambers. The default door state is closed/locked. You can use a simple logic_auto to open the entrance or exit(debug), or use a relay after a puzzle. Included files: Demo .bsp and .vmf instances- airlock entrance door airlock exit door (requires entrance door) entire check point (requires all other .vmf) Feel free to edit the instances to fit your needs.
VRAD Lighting Skipper
A quick and dirty program to help dramatically reduce build times in PETI. This program is currently Unsupported as I am working on a far more powerful tool that will include the functionality of the Lighting Skipper.
PDMOD
THIS IS A PORTAL DETECTOR MOD FOR THE PeTI EDITOR Created by Me (radelite) and BOB74j aka (brainstatic) This is not yet compatible with any-other mods but it is fun here is a link to one of the maps made with the earlier form of this mod http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/f ... =178598821 The new form has better placement then the older one Have fun mapping
[TOOL] A Propper MOD
This is a very useful tool for mappers, mainly if you haven't got any modelling knowledge. This tool will allow you to make models out of brushes; create whatever thing into your Hammer editor by means of only brushes and then turn it quick and easily into a custom model usable in game! Propper is not new at all, many of you know about it already. I even wrote a tutorial some time ago... But since I know many of you are having trouble in making it to work out after some Valve updates and the new SteamPipe file system, I've decided to share this little mod I managed to prepare some time ago mounted in the Alien Swarm game and as a mod. I borrowed TopHatWaffle's batch file altogether with the required binary files from his awesome tutorial some time ago, and edited it a bit for my purposes. So credit goes to him before anything.

Cube Inductance
This was an idea I had after seeing the "shake flashlight". This is a generator which uses the "infinite fall" technique with a cube or sphere to activate an object, i.e. open a door. The instance requires a fairly tall room as it is 512 high by 128 wide by 128 deep. Try it out and let me know what you think of it.
Portal 2 Beta styled vac tubes.
These are hexed vactube alternate models that have the un-textured frames, much like they did in the april 2010 game informer and valve's original meet wheatley trailer for portal 2. You may use these in any map that you want to look more like p2's beta, but please give me (tile) credit in your map (and let me know you made a map with my stuff in it, too, because i love seeing my work put to good use!)
