Didn't say I was modding. I only said that you can create a portal-based third party mod, even if you don't code.

You can do that for anything...it doesn't really accomplish anything except add unnecessary icons in the Steam games listing...

I need it for GLaMS-DOS. I need to make new scenes (scene.image), new surface proerties, new NPC sounds, new gamesounds, override Half-Life 2 and Portal original files and models, and that thoughout many maps.
BSPZIPPING every file into each map, each file being duplicate in every map making the filesize grow a lot, is out of the question. And plus, I need scenes. As far as I know, I can't make new scenes with their own subtitles without making a new mod, even with BSPZIPPING.

So just don't bspzip them into every map and keep them in their respective directories?

EDIT: Orange Box games require a .image file, no more seperate .vcds

i think making it a mod is a better idea, no other custom maps to clutter up the bonus list, a campaign list, new scenes, etc.
