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.
Panel models 32 & 64
A request by ChickenMobile. She wanted 32322 and 64648 panels with ceiling/wall textures. The 32-panels have ceiling textures. Skin 0 - observation room ceiling Skin 1 to 8 - underground ceiling tiles, different variations Skin 9 to 16 - white dirty ceiling tiles, different variations The 64-panels have wall textures. Skin 0 - black metal wall Skin 1 to 16 - destroyed metal wall, different variations If you want to have other skins, ask me.
PUNT Gravity Cubes
As seen in Reepblue's previews for the mod PUNT! The example map isn't very good, and I'm not actually sure it doesn't leak, but it shows the triggers you need. Copy-paste them into a plain box and it'll look better. Used with permission, but you need to attribute PUNT to Reepblue if you make something big with this.
Wall Tile Randomizer
Ever get tired of cutting up your walls to create tile variation? Wish there was a way to automatically generate randomized walls? Now there is! Just extract the 7z, run WallRandomizer.exe, and either copy the contents of the output vmf or use it as an instance. --NOTICE-- You WILL need to install Python 3.3, available at http://www.python.org. The WTR will NOT work without the dlls from it, which I cannot distribute. Features: -Customizable size -Either white or black wall -Clean or dirty variants -Enable/disable of certain tile sizes -Automatic texture alignment Please note that this is in very early testing - just something I whipped up in an afternoon. The algorithm is also a tad slow and can lead to some odd results. Please leave feedback about any bugs you may encounter. Changelog: v1.1 -Fixed texture alignment -Added clean/dirty variants -Added input checks (no more putting "fish" as the width ) -Improved and optimized randomizer algorithm -Added texture arrays, making it possible in future versions to add a text file to change textures -Other miscellaneous bugfixes v1.1.1 -Fixed clean wall bug (thanks protoborg and tile) v1.2 (A day late and a dollar short, sorry) -Fixed side alignment issues -Upgraded from Python 2.7 to Python 3.3 -Replaced crappy 15-minute-implemented brush writer with PyVMF

Wall_Dest_Section03 With Collisions
Sprowl requested models/props_destruction/wall_dest_section03.mdl with physical model. So here it is, for everyone of course.
Felix Griffin's Editor Mod (FGEMOD)
An editor for the editor, which allows you to choose your test elements. Includes at least as many new ones as there are originals. Includes HMW's mod and the BEEMOD elements. Note: There's currently an error unless you have this package installed: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/51831059/Portal ... _v5_src.7z . Sorry about that.
Gravity Gun instance v2
Place the instance called gravity_gun_automatic.vmf in your map to use. press and hold secondary fire to pull and carry, press primary fire while holding to launch. See the readme for better a better description EDIT: All cubes, paint bombs, and combine balls can be carried now! EDIT: very few glitches now! The only know glitches are the occasional messup on map spawn which can be fixed by reloading, and the ability to shove things under the floor and past doors, but this can be prevented with fizzlers and triggers that send a forcedrop output to the gravity gun. EDIT: Now with particle effects and other awesomeness!
In-Game Timer
This adds an on-screen timer to whatever map you want, without requiring a recompile. Good for speedruns of custom maps. Made by Chickenmobile and FelixGriffin.
Alexander's Bomb Dropper Instance
This is a bomb dropper I made, its pretty good (although I don't know how to make a brush pitch black, if you tell me how I'll add a thin pitch black brush to it so it doesn't look like the bomb is coming from the ceiling). Pretty simple, and if you replace your cube_sphere p2editor instance with this (and re name it cube_sphere), you should be able to use it in the PTI.
