Turret Jumper (PROTOTYPE) Mac OS

broken image


  1. The Apple IIGS (styled as IIGS), the fifth and most powerful of the Apple II family, is a 16-bit personal computer produced by Apple Computer.While featuring the Macintosh look and feel, and resolution and color similar to the Amiga and Atari ST, it remains compatible with earlier Apple II models.
  2. The 'turret' is a standard crewspace for the gunner which can move like a regular ball turret, but the gun mount on the exterior of the ship is actually a tiny remote piloted vehicle which flies in formation with the ship at all times, as if it was attached to the vessel.
  3. Jumper wire, also known as DuPont wire is an electrical wire with pin at each end, which is normally used to interconnect the components on a breadboard or other prototype circuit without soldering. Resistor is a passive two-terminal component that implements electrical resistance.
We just released a Feb. 5 '89 prototype of DuckTales for the NES!

  • Revisional differences (first version: Windows Orange Box; last version: latest Steam update (Win, Mac, or Linux) or Android port.

Hello, and again, welcome to the TCRF wiki article pertaining to unused assets within the computer entertainment software known as 'Portal'. We hope your brief detention in the relaxation vault has been a pleasant one. Your specimen has been processed and we are now ready to begin the article proper. Before we start, however, keep in mind that although fun and learning are the primary goals of TCRF activities, serious injuries may occur.

Unused Textures

BLU Briefcase

Present in materials/models/flag is the Team Fortress 2 BLU briefcase texture, apparently misplaced here.

fixed_portal_border

Turret Jumper (prototype) Mac Os Download

The early fixed portal border texture, seen in many pre-release screenshots, remains in the game files in the portal/materials/signage/ directory.

Turret Jumper (prototype) Mac Os X

Red Portal

A red-colored portal, present in portal/materials/models/portals/portal-red-color.vtf. This is the color the orange portal had during development, and if you turn on the closed captions the message 'Red Portal Open' will appear whenever you shoot an orange one. This misnaming is present in all languages.

To enable it in-game (replacing the orange portal), modify portal/materials/models/portals/portalstaticoverlay_2.vmt to read '$PortalColorTexture' 'models/portals/portal-red-color' instead of '$PortalColorTexture' 'models/portals/portal-orange-color', although the particles around the portal will stay orange.

Alternate Portal Particles

To do:
Add an image of this in action.

Present in the game's particle files are a different particle system for portals that was never used in-game. It can be enabled by running the game with the -tools argument.

'Sparta' Sign

This odd texture is present in portal/materials/models/props_facemovie/wet_floor_sign, without a matching model in the game files. Files used in the 'props_facemovie' folder were originally intended to feature in a Source Filmmaker video, and a matching model for the sign can be found in the Source Filmmaker files, albeit with a plain texture.

  • Texture from the Portal files

  • The sign with the SPARTA! texture

  • The sign with the plain texture from Source Filmmaker

White Phone

There is an unused skingroup texture of Aperture Science's emergency phone prop, colored white.

  • Texture from the Portal files

  • When applied to the phone and receiver models

v_portalgun2

Present in the portal/materials/models/weapons/v_models/v_portalgun/ directory is a texture for a much earlier Portal Gun, as seen in this video.

Unused Map Textures

A couple of concrete and plastic textures that never got used.

Turret Jumper (prototype) Mac Os 11

  • concrete_bts_floor001b.vtf

  • concrete_bts_wall001a.vtf

  • plastic_light001a.vtf

  • plastic_light001b.vtf

This texture, in portal/materials/nature, apparently would have appeared as the surface of toxic slime as seen from below. The material simply reuses the top texture for both sides.

Overlays

A few overlays, a poster and a couple of oil stains, also never got used. stain_oil_06.vtf lacks an alpha channel.

  • aperture_poster001a.vtf

  • stain_oil_02.vtf

  • stain_oil_06.vtf

Skyboxes

An odd skybox showing metal test chamber walls with glowing orange holes.

  • bts_custom_cubemapup.vtf

  • bts_custom_cubemapbk.vtf

  • bts_custom_cubemapft.vtf

  • bts_custom_cubemaplf.vtf

  • bts_custom_cubemaprt.vtf

  • bts_custom_cubemapdn.vtf

Another odd skybox showing the first Xen map from Half-Life. The map escape_01.bsp is in fact set to use this, but the map doesn't contain any skybox brushes, so it is never rendered.

Turret Jumper (prototype) Mac Os Catalina

  • sky_escape_01_up.vtf

  • sky_escape_01_bk.vtf

  • sky_escape_01_ft.vtf

  • sky_escape_01_lf.vtf

  • sky_escape_01_rt.vtf

  • sky_escape_01_dn.vtf

Unseen Portal Gun Viewmodel Hand

In the actual Portal Gun's viewmodel, there's a non-animated hand without textures. Unfortunately, Chell's hand texture's UV mapping does not match the VTF meaning the texture does not align with her arm.

Unused Dialogue

GLaDOS

To do:
There's more unused audio for GLaDOS than just this one, extract them and upload them here.
ListenSound Summary
Present as portal/sound/vo/aperture_ai/file_deleted.wav. It is simply GLaDOS saying 'File Deleted'.
Jumper

ListenSound Summary
Unused line for when the player is spotted by a Turret.
Unused line for when a Turret is searching for the player.

Unused Sounds

ListenSound Summary
Unused fluorescent hum variant.
Unused ticking sound for a clock.

Tim Larkin

If you noclip to the end sequence, you will find a radio NPC named Tim Larkin. Larkin created the ending cinematic music/sound, and this NPC controls the playing of those sounds. It was named after him in his honor. Apparently, Tim didn't know about this!

Unused ASCII Art

Various pieces of ASCII art go unused in the credits.txt and, by proxy, in the ending credits' ASCII art section.

RADIO

COMPANION_CUBE

LIGHTBULB

MECH_ARM

PERSONALITY_SPHERE

Unused Subtitles

A few unused subtitles can be found in the closed captions files. They are translated into different languages. The scripts/npc_sounds_aperture_ai.txt labels them as BONUS REWARD SOUNDS, and reveals they were to be spoken by GLaDOS. Some of these correspond to lines which were are garbled or cut-off in the final game, while others are for lines that go unused or are only present in the leak.

Half-Life 2 Leftovers

There is a folder titled 'hl2' filled with Half Life 2 assets, mostly there due to reusing some assets and possibly not bothering to clean out irrelevant data.

Half-Life 2-Style Testing Equipment

The prefabs included in the Source SDK Episode One tools with the folder 'prefabs' (having three folders inside, one which is for Portal) feature old versions of map elements in Half-Life 2 style. Portal used Half-Life 2 assets in the early stages of development as placeholders.
