Wow! Very nice done! only 600mb? hmm... thats sure is cute >.< Keep'em coming Dopeman!

Shamshel (2007-10-23)

Thanks for the great game mate. :D

tpxjongusmoe (2007-10-23)

Thanks so much! You're the best!

babbakanoush (2007-10-23)

I open the game but I get a message that says that the game needs Directx 8 or better to run, I already have the latest directx, help?

whitekid77 (2007-10-23)

Dopeman, you are God.

oppsaer (2007-10-23)

thnx i love it very good.:) ANDREAS DET ÄR JAG PER DIN KOMPIS HAHAHA!!!

Tomee114 (2007-10-23)

you are cool dopey! :D

Razorbladesoup (2007-10-23)

anyone else having a problem with this?
im running it on a fresh install of xp..2ghz cpu 1gb ram and a geforce 6600gt
when i run portal the hl2.exe pops up under proccesses...then disapears and never runs

psmaniac (2007-10-23)

Razorbladesoup i had some problems, but i ran it with the "my pc sucks" then changed the video settings inside and it works fine now.
you should try that.
this is the only good rip out there. all the rest that are just Portal and not the other mods don't work at all. just noob packers i guess.

SENSEIDA (2007-10-24)

Razorblade soup I'm having the same problem you are, and Psmaniac- IT's not going to work like that. He and I run either batch file, and it will get to the blurry splash screen, and shut down. There are no options to change videos or anything.
I also have more than enough specs, and Dx9.0
Any help, people?

SENSEIDA (2007-10-24)

Also- Every few times I run this game, it pops up with "The minimum requirement for this game is DirectX 8.0", but yet, I have 9.0...

lolunteer (2007-10-24)

I'm having the same problem. Whichever batch file I run, I get the error message that I need at least DirectX 8, even though I have DirectX 9.

eLitePunK (2007-10-24)

600 mb, you must be king of kings, but thing is i already got the unleashed vers. and it workds perft. but congrats on getting it down to 600 megs, fuck anybody who releases unnessisary file sizes, dopeman rox 2 bad i cant dl any of his releases

mcat2001 (2007-10-24)

im running vista and iv got amzing specs so i shouldent have a poblem but when i open it. comes up with "hl2.exe has stoped working"
iv been doing this for a while and dopeman has been amazing so i dont think its the torrent. umm...eny suggestions?

someone724 (2007-10-24)

When i tried to run portal using the hl2.exe it didn't work but i used the my pc suks, then changed the settings. After that the hl2.exe works fine...even tho my pc does suck

Vi663 (2007-10-24)

This game was awesome! Didn't they say that the portal-gun was going to be in episode 2? :S Hope its in the next episode... BTW Thx Dopeman for a great upload!

barabusignasius (2007-10-24)

does anyone know what the chess, checkers..ect. files are in the addons?....is there a way to make them run?

Evil_Ananaz (2007-10-25)

This was a realy cool game. I have now beaten the game. It wasn't so long unfourtionally=(...but non the less a real gooooooood game!
Totally worth downloading! =)

mopable (2007-10-25)

For some reason when I launch MyPCsuks or the regular file, I get the Valve and Steam screens but after that it crashes.
Anybody know why?

LIBERTINE303 (2007-10-25)

thanks dopeman, works perfecto!!! as usual

Dopeman_Rocks123 (2007-10-25)

Thanks for another great game, it's way cooler than I thought, Peace.

barabusignasius (2007-10-26)

Awsome rip dopeman...AS Always. Mine is crashing after the first advanced map....anyone else?.....any suggestions?

barabusignasius (2007-10-26)

P.S. The Little song after you beat should win a grammy :-)

nilpferdkoenig (2007-10-26)

The song deserves a couple of grammys!
I listended to it over and over again on youtube, it's so damn funny!

zzzonday (2007-10-26)

me and babbakanoush are having the same problems.
it says i need at least directx 8 and i have xp sp2.
when i dl directx 9 from the windows site and try to install it it says i already have the better version. so wtf.

licnija (2007-10-26)

The game is pretty awesome, but i have a little problem. When i move mouse over portals fast, a white square appears next to my cursor. My configuration is Pentium D915(2,8GHz) 1GB RAM(667MHz) GF7300GT and the newest drivers.

barabusignasius (2007-10-26)

OK....Thanks Dopey...

stanleyman (2007-10-27)

omfg wow that was a funy song XD good job valve hope to see number 2 longer thx alot dopeman you are a torrent master i tip my hat to u

BRILLIANT!!! This game is one of the greatest ever!! Dopeman, thank you so very much. I've been reading about this over the last two weeks and now I can finally play the hell out of it!
But it sucks when you lose your Companion Cube...I...I....
CCCCUUUUUUBBBBEEEE!!!! Why?! Why-hy-hy-hyyyyy?! Come back, Cube!!
Rest In Peace, my dear friend...

cptnshank (2007-10-27)

thanks for the great game, i really enjoyed it. I'm only having one problem and thats that the game wont let me map the look up and down buttons to anything but the mouse. it says that it switched but no key works not even the default. i play on a laptop and the touchpad is really annoying for this type of thing. i appreiate any suggestions thanks. 8)

chanman1197 (2007-10-28)

problem fixed no worrys! =D thx dopeman

ragnaruss (2007-10-28)

hey im having some problems, i D/Led the torrent and tried to run it, first it started then said i needed DX8 and now when i try to open it at all the command prompt just closes quickly and then doesnt do anything. this is with both bats.

ragnaruss (2007-10-28)

ok now it just shuts down without saying anything, that is if i run either of the .bat files.
any help out there?

edrehn (2007-10-28)

does it work on windows XP?

ragnaruss (2007-10-28)

ok so all those problems solved, and now it starts up fine and stufff justnow i cant start a new game, even when i click the start new game thing it still dont work
any ideas, anyone got a a saved game (at the very start) they can send me

Jhongerkong (2007-10-28)

IM HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM AS EVERYONE ELSE! Takes me a week to dl and when I run it, it says i need direct x 8 when i have 9! Why is this?!!!

Mota77 (2007-10-28)

hey chanman, this is the one that works (with 'my pc suks') right?Xd

Mota77 (2007-10-28)

whoa, this is going to take a while, 15KB/s... but Dopeman, you stuff is the best, torrent master!

ragnaruss (2007-10-28)

mota, did you figure out a way to start a new game?

Jhongerkong (2007-10-28)

can someone post a guide to get this game working?

Mota77 (2007-10-28)

not yet, ragnaruss... the one with the starting problem was from another torrent by "Wersaq", im still in the process of dl' from dopeman. if i get it working, ill definitely share what i know... this game is worthy Xd

Mota77 (2007-10-28)

i think it might be possible to get a saved game to work on portal, if placed in the right location. but as much as i search through google, etc, i cant find any sources where you can get a save file, so good luck to anyone out there with this problem. it looks like steam/valve really didnt want this one to get pirated... to bad for them since some people are becoming successful Xd

dpdpdpdpdp600 (2007-10-28)

Damn Dopeman, last one I dl'd was 2.5 GB's, impressive upload 583.32 MiB, wow!
Probably because of "no bonus developers commentaries" ?
regardless, great game, great upload, ty.

dpdpdpdpdp600 (2007-10-28)

Mota77 there is no way to get a new game up and running? I myself can upload a save file right at the start of the game, you'd have to drop it in Potal/SAVE folder, is this the problem, does anyone need a start save?

Mota77 (2007-10-28)

AHH YES! i finally got a working one, and from THE uploader dopeman... oh and thanks chanman, don't know what i would've done without ya Xd

Mota77 (2007-10-28)

oh, thaks dpdpdpdpdp600, but i got it working lol

thatguyy (2007-10-28)

ok every time i try to start it the command prompt screen comes on then disappears and does nothing I NEED HELP???

cptnshank (2007-10-29)

ok im so pissed. i played through the entire game twice now up to the point in test 19 where you escape the flames. everytime i jump through a portal to escape the game locks up and crashes. i've tried on both .bat files and im about ready to give up. has anyone else had this problem?

Tophillious (2007-10-29)

Fantastic. Works great, and played through completely without a flaw. seeding...

krankyz (2007-10-29)

works perfectly! dopeman is the shiznit

dre420yo (2007-10-29)

is it just me that dont get a MyPC_SuKS_PoRTaL.bat or a portal.bat all i get is a hl2.exe then if i click that i get
"i was unable to locate clientregistry - - location of steamemu executable could just ignore it but its better to stop at this point"
anyone help a brother out here?

dre420yo (2007-10-29)

nevermind found them for some strange reason those 2 files didnt unpack from the rar

pet007 (2007-10-29)

works fine, thank you :)

GhostShoes (2007-10-29)

Works Perfect! This is the best Portal RIP I've played. All I had to do was run MyPCSuks.bat and everything ran fine.
Though it could've been because of my computer.
Note: Don't finish the advanced chambers or else it crashes the game due to it trying to access Steam for Achievements.
Theres really no way to fix this but you can play the entire game without it.

Shinichii (2007-10-30)

Hi i want to delete Portal bt i can't it keep saying that it can't delete it because it's running or something
please help

kvp1192 (2007-10-30)

what do i do? ive downloaded and ripped, but when i try to start the game, (both versions), i get the same thing..it starts with the valve thing, then this weird box thing with a timer on it, and all it does is go from side to side, nothing else....

Zell65 (2007-10-30)

I'm having the same problem as about 5 others on here. I get to the blurry loading screen, then it CTD's, saying that i need Dx8 or better even though im running the latest version of 9. Someone please help us!

SENSEIDA (2007-10-30)

FOR GOD SAKES DOES NOBODY HAVE AN ANSWER TO THIS PROBLEM? D:
A Dx Requirement of 8, a Dx LEVEL of Nine!

graffitiwall (2007-10-30)

thnx man ! nice game
bye !

b0a (2007-10-30)

Hi , im a newb.. and i dont really get the instructions.. i dont have an X: so i extracted the hl2.exe file to C: Lokal Disk, and there got a map there with hl2 named thingy, so i klicked it and it said failed to load the launcher DLL:
det går inte att hitta den angivna modullen.
what should i do pls?

b0a (2007-10-31)

Nvm my last post! it was a miss tell..
but i got a problem now too.. ive downloaded this, and double clicked (extracted) play_portal.bat, and mypc_suks_portal.bat and the hl2.exe, nothing happens, so i extracted it to the desktop and pressed play_portal.bat, and a dialog(those who come up when you write dxdiag in run and so on) for like half a second and it dissapears and nothing happends? pls help me! i will seed if u help me!

b0a (2007-10-31)

that problem could've been because of i didnt have latest version of winrar, but now i tried it, and this came up: Setup file 'gameinfo.txt' doesn't exist i subdirectory 'hl2'.
Check your -game parameter or VCONFIG setting.
what the hell is going on :P?

TheBombio (2007-10-31)

Nice! Thank you!
The MYPCSUX version worked like a charm. Very good game, took me 3 days to beat, even though its like a 1-2 hour game. :)
THE CAKE ISNT A LIE!!

chefski (2007-10-31)

to bOa- check all the folders ther should be a txt file that is called 'gameinfo.txt' just move it into the the directory with the hl2 game start icon..should work

b0a (2007-10-31)

cheers chefski, ill try that;)

b0a (2007-10-31)

didn't seem to work.. i found gameinfo.txt in the map named portal in the PoRtAl map, so i tried to copy it and paste it were the .bat files and hl2.exe was, but it only came this load (extract thingy) and it didnt get to the pOrTaL map where .bat and hl2.exe was.. so i tried to do it on the pOrTaL map i had on desktop, so when i went in portal map, there was a hl2.exe next to gameinfo, and i copied one to the .bat files too, nothing happend!

bnzabuza (2007-10-31)

Please seed.. I beg u, rly want this game and i'm downloading in 4kb/sec, i've got 20mbit internet... thx in advance seeders

daddypants (2007-11-01)

To those of you who still have not found this out yet, the fix to this Direct X problem, is that YOU INSTALLED THE NEW DRIVER FOR YOUR GRAPHICS CARD, this can be fixed by installing an older version of your graphics card, reinstalling Direct X and starting Portal. If you have any problems, or this doesn't work, just.... keep posting.

daddypants (2007-11-01)

An older Driver for your graphics card* -.-

b0a (2007-11-01)

my problem is still not fixed.. when i press .bat files a thingy comes up (the thingy u do with run, and for example dxdiag) for half a second, and nothing happens, and on hl2.exe it stands something like "faild to load launder DLL" .. please help me :(

chrelle (2007-11-01)

I have no problem lanching the game. But when the the counter in level 1 goes down to 00.00 my game crashes? Anybody woth the same problem or a solution to my problem
Thx

chrelle (2007-11-01)

I have no problem lanching the game. But when the the counter in level 1 goes down to 00.00 and the portal opens my game crashes? Anybody woth the same problem or a solution to my problem
Thx

de_e_najs (2007-11-01)

does this work or not?

de_e_najs (2007-11-01)

must i have Half life 2 or any half life?

Jolt_Boy (2007-11-01)

This is a really good torrent! But I thinked I fucked something up. First I started the game with PLAY_PoRTAL.bat. Everything worked fine! But then. I accedently started the game with MyPC_SuKS_PoRTaL.bat. Now I can't change the graphics or anything. Is there anyway to correct this problem? Please answer if you've got time.

pravoslavnie (2007-11-01)

Hi, I've downloaded this and am getting a problem that I've read many other people are having. I have an awesome gaming machine with Directx 9.0c. If I do either batch file provided by dopeman, the VALVe splash screen comes up and then the "source" spalsh screen and then I get an hour glass for about half of a second and then it goes away/closes and I'm back to my desktop. I've reinstalled Dx 9.0c and I have the latest nVidia drivers for my 7950GT.
Please help!

de_e_najs (2007-11-01)

strange... i just unrared and played. u r the man- dopeman ;D

Jolt_Boy (2007-11-01)

Anyone know why my graphics are bugged?(Read me previous comment to understand)

pravoslavnie (2007-11-01)

Jolt_Boy: did you edit that batch file in notepad to see the switches in there? mabye google on those switches and you may find what setting you need to put back to what is was before. ??... just trying to help.

pravoslavnie (2007-11-01)

Does it matter what compression utility you use to unzip this? I use IZArc. So far, I think the people who have been successful use Winrar, right?

Jolt_Boy (2007-11-01)

Pravoslavnie: Batch files? Batch files are the PLAY_PoRTal.bat, right? Well, I can't open them in notepad. I'll google it. Thanks!

pravoslavnie (2007-11-01)

Jolt_Boy: yes, a batch file is a .bat file. Right click and do "edit" or "open with" and choose notepad. or open notepad and do 'file' > 'open' and browse to the batch file in question.
I still need help with my issue so if anyone can write a comment I would greatly appreciate it. Otherwise, I will have to buy this game! BTW, I am a seeder!

Jolt_Boy (2007-11-01)

Hmm. I'm not sure but, I downloaded some nVIDIA Drivers yesterday. You think that's why I can't change the graphics? I think you need older drivers rather than newer. Sound weird, I know but It's worth a try.
Excuse my shitty english.

pravoslavnie (2007-11-01)

Jolt_Boy: i would think the newer drivers are the way to go. i've never heard of having to downgrade your driver version just to be able to play a 3D game. you can try it if you'd like of course.

pravoslavnie (2007-11-02)

Where are my Torrent Brethren when I need them most??!!
I can't play this game! Please see my OP above!
Thanks!

Jolt_Boy (2007-11-02)

Sorry that I can't help you with your problem, but. Now. I opened the Batch file in NotePad. What do I do now?

pravoslavnie (2007-11-02)

there may be some switches that follow the hyphens (a.k.a. dashes "-"). google for those switches and how they would affect your video card. i know one of them has to do with opening the game in a window vs. the default full screen.

axxofan (2007-11-02)

Engine error: This game has a requirement of directx 8.0 to run properly. Who else is angry at this message right now? Through all of my searching and possible fixes (very few) here is what I have found and tried so far and nothing has worked.
Completely Upgraded drivers, Downgraded drivers, Disable 'Support DXT Texture Formats' under More settings for Catalyst drivers, No solution was found to 'uninstall' directx.. an extension of windows needed to operate properly therefore directx was not reinstalled but instead upgraded as far as possible, Unrar game using correct rar file (no .00,.01, .02 file extension for those of you who are hiding known file extensions)
Has -anyone- found a working solution to this problem? If you tell me to upgrade my computer system or drivers I will beat your children to death. Everything is current. All drivers and versions tried from 7.8-7.10 for catalyst. Nothing is working and I would love to play this game.

Psychosomatik (2007-11-02)

Is there any way of making this work with Steam without buying it?

Jolt_Boy (2007-11-02)

I'm to retarded for this shit. Here's the PLAY_PoRTal.bat opened in Notpad.

Jolt_Boy (2007-11-02)

Ok, my textures seem normal again but. My portals look like shit.

pravoslavnie (2007-11-02)

I give up. I'm going to download "Portal Unleashed" and try that. I may have to wait days, but oh well.
Jolt_Boy: I don't know what to do about your graphics settings. If you have nVidia, use the nVidia control panel to force higher quality settings for that .exe file. Also, at the beginning of the game, do you have an option to change video settings? I would tell you where to go in the Portal menu, but I CAN'T GET TO THE MENU, AGGGGHH! ;-)

pravoslavnie (2007-11-02)

Would anyone mind posting how many BYTES that this download is exactly please? I would like to compare with the file I downloaded to make sure the file is complete. Thanks!

Jolt_Boy (2007-11-02)

GAH!!! I'm going to fucking shoot myself!! Anyone got a tip? Yo, Dopeman! You're the one who made the torrent! A little help, please? You see. I started the game with MyPC_SuKS_PoRTaL.bat And now I can't change the graphics back to normal!! Ugh, atleast it's playable...Good Torrent, though. Thanks;)

axxofan (2007-11-02)

OK Well. My Original problem came from Portal Unleashed version. When all else failed I wanted to try my_pc_sucks_portal etc to see if that would help (even though my pc doesn't suck) so I downloaded this version in much less time and it works beautifully! Strangest thing I dont even need the my_pc_sucks to play, full screen, full graphics, and loving it.
For anyone with directx problem, downloading this version instead of Unleashed allowed me to finally play, good luck!

Jolt_Boy (2007-11-02)

Dude, could you change your graphics after playing MyPcSuks thingy? Damn...I want to die right now xD

J_Hook (2007-11-04)

Champ! Thanks again dopeman!

DaVince21 (2007-11-05)

"UnRAR a 7zip file"
Can you spot what's wrong in this sentence?
Anyway, thanks for sharing.

b0a (2007-11-06)

TheGayHare at 2007-11-04 00:07 CET:
I've been having an odd problem
Every time I try and play portal nothing happens
I click either batch file and for a split second a box opens and then nothing. No error message, I'll even check the running programs and portal isn't even listed as running.
Does anyone have any advice
..
i have the same problem :(

Zielak69 (2007-11-07)

why is this rip so gay?
to work it i should have change dir names from portal to hl2 and vice versa. i can hear menu music and sound when i move my mouse over buttons and stuff but i all i can see is WHITE! nothing else. somehow i've run new game (still seeing nothing) and i could hear my foot steps, use key sound, spray and some ambient radio music...
WHITE!
is there any way to fix this? D:

Zielak69 (2007-11-07)

PROBLEM SOLVED!!!!!!!!
for everyone who have problem with game where intro plays and then disappears:
Make a shortcut out of hl.exe, goto it's proporties and where it says "C:\whatever\hl2.exe" add there (after ") this: -game portal
when you see whiteness there is no other way than just copy parameters from "My_CoMp_Sucks.bat" file SO:
"C:\whatever\hl2.exe" -game portal -window -dxlevel 81 +mat_forcehardwaresync 0
HAVE FUN :]

Lintlizard (2007-11-07)

I just went to the DirectX site and got the latest edition, AND followed Zielak's instructions. It's still telling me the game has a minimum requirement of DirectX 8.0 to run properly.

djnforce9 (2007-11-07)

Wow! Download speeds are fast on this one (and I'm behind a school firewall so that's saying something right there). I'll have it no time. Looking forward to trying. Thanks everyone for seeding. I'll seed myself when I get home with this. Looks great!

Zielak69 (2007-11-07)

Lintlizard, sry to hear that though, can't help with it..

Marohen (2007-11-08)

It looks like a great game... but... It crashes right after going through the first portal, and always does so despite any change in graphics setting I attempt. Any help on this would be muchly appreciated.

Marohen (2007-11-08)

Upon further investigation the act of going through the portal itself is not the cause of the crash, but some sort of possible rendering error I can't identify. If I look at the ground and pass the portal, sticking to the outer wall and not looking at the cell I once was in, I can prevent crashing for an extended length of time. I will re-extract the file to see if a missing object is the cause...

Marohen (2007-11-09)

Never mind. Upon further examination the problem in question was due to my on-board video processing. As powerful as my laptop may be, it just can't deal with this.
Thank you, and sorry for the excessive spammage.

SirDEA (2007-11-10)

mmmmm köp orangebox

hhgg (2007-11-10)

Whenever I start it with anything, with either of the .bats or hl2.exe, it plays the valve introduction video and then closes as soon as the video is finished. I've tried altering the parameters like someone said, but that doesn't work. Can anyone help me, please?

luke1dude (2007-11-10)

same problem as hhgg!

TransRane (2007-11-10)

Its probably just for the rip. Thats one of the standard missing texture images.

TransRane (2007-11-10)

And mine says "failed to create D3D device" right after the first cutscene...

ooaar (2007-11-10)

SimultaniousDeaths (2007-11-11)

great realease! just finished the game for the second time. Works just as great as the Unleashed release on my computer! Thanks dopeman, can't belive how you managed to compress this game to 1/5 of the Unleashed size, great work! You're the no.1 gameripper!

shakraka (2007-11-11)

mcinus (2007-11-11)

Dopeman, lägg ner filerna som du ska ladda upp i en .zix fil!! Det tar typ hälften så lite utrymme.

shadowdahedgehog (2007-11-11)

Hi i loved the game thank u so much for the torrent Dopeman ;o) it even fits into whats left of space in my ipod :o3 anyways the music in the end should really have a grammy or an emmy whatever im danish so i dunno what its called. btw my game didnt crash once well once but that was the computer being weird in the great turret battle. So it aint the game thats the prob for all u guys.
PS. great cake

I got the game working and everything but sometimes while I am playing the game will quit out and an error message will pop up saying that i am out of OS memory should contact the steam website and stuff, is anyone else having this problem? does anybody have a solution to my problem?

swam1231 (2007-11-13)

fuzzyfuzball (2007-11-15)

I have the same problem as swam1231. Can someone please help me?

jingizu (2007-11-15)

@smumdax, hl2.exe should be in the same folder as the bat-files, if its not, you have done something wrong at decompression, also, IF the file is there, and i still dont work, try this (cmd in same folder as hl2.exe) ; "hl2.exe -game portal -window -dxlevel 81 +mat_forcehardwaresync 0" without the ""
dont know why, but the bat-files dont execute as they should for some reason, there is no fault in the batfile, im *guessing* that its an "feature" added in some update by M$ :S
(oldtimey way of creating lame viruses was through batfiles).
Also as allready stated by others, the endgame music MUST win atleast an grammy, or why not MTV:EMA? =) best god damn tune of the year! ;D
also, game is waaay to short :/
if anyone have alot of custom aka. "bonus levels" please upload and write a comment here! =)

sloppydave (2007-11-16)

what's the trick to getting around the game crashing, i have read and seen there is no fix for it but for me at some points in the game i cant even continue on because the game crashes..
please help me.. :(

_j0n_ (2007-11-16)

Well Dopeman... it fucked up my Vista partition when I accidentally clicked the "MyPCSucks" batch file instead of the "Run" batch file. I now have to reinstall Vista, but it's okay because it was [pirated] anyways.
Plays great on XP though I am stuck.
Anyways... I'll have to re-download all the torrents I was running on Vista [30 of them] and re-seed. I had already reached 125% but I still seed your stuff as long as humanly possible.
Later/_j0n_

fireboy129 (2007-11-16)

dopeman you are amazing.
simple as that.

mjolnir037 (2007-11-17)

Looking through the comments, I don't see a fix for the New Game button not starting a new game, getting past the Directx thing was easy enough but the only thing I can really do is installation of cracks and mods.....any help?

Supreme.Laks (2007-11-17)

Thank you for uploading this great game!
It runs great! But sometimes, after having played a bonus level, the game crashes. It saves, that I have completed the level though. But else than that - no errors!

JetSyn (2007-11-19)

I DLed it and everything works great...until the "powered by source" screen comes up. After that screen, it turns white and nothing happens. I can hear music and stuff, but everything is white. Can someone help me please?

nilpferdkoenig (2007-11-20)

Graphic card suxs^^?
My problem is that the game controller support suxs complete tits!
My Xbox 360 controller is identified by the game and stuff but I can't strafe left and right or look up and down. Impossible to play!

Diozakrod (2007-12-09)

Great upload, only problem is that texture that would normally be a maroonish color are purple for some reason, still a great game (Actually makes it easier, because you can distinguish a non portable surface from a portable one a lot better)

Hi, I'm having the same problem as some people. When I start either Bat files, command prompt opens for a second and then disappears again, but nothing happens further. I tried launching the game in cmd, but still nothing happening. This problem has never been really answered. If any1 knows the answer, please tell me. Tnx anyway!!

gtesgew4tgfxse (2007-12-24)

I too had problems to start this game. After the valve Intro the game simply exited.
Then I launched steam and now it runs finde.
Though not everybody has a steam account, this should work for most of you.

joshp123 (2007-12-28)

Thanx dopeman for a great game :)
Works perfectly for me ;)
And if people are having problems with the process shutting down straight away without loading the game, try restarting your PC, that has fixed problems with games doing that for me before :)
Thanx again, great upload :D

africansk8er (2008-01-06)

Give this man one million internets!
I've been wanting to play this forever, but the only other torrent was 2.5 gigs and that's a bit too big for me. But this is small and works perfectly.
Thanks a lot dopeman, I'm loving this game.

by the way, thnx dopeman..

Ardein (2008-01-15)

I'm at a lose, I've turned everything down to low and used the 'my pc sucks' way to launch. No matter what I do it always crashes after I try to play for a little bit. I see so many people ask but no one ever gets an answer so I have no clue on if there is anything I can possibly do to get this to run.

AdDeOWN (2008-01-15)

Omg..cant download this torrent..it come to an
"Error 404" site..HAHA:P

AdDeOWN (2008-01-15)

Man , i want this game:(..i just trust at dopemans torrents

pldfct (2008-01-20)

thx again dopeman. for those getting nothing, use 7zip, or perhaps wait for the "my pc is a total load of shit.bat", or perhaps the "i really am a complete retard.bat" fixes :p

oryano (2008-01-30)

I've read through the comments, for some reason the game crashes when I enter the first portal of the game. A few other people had the same problem. Any insights on this?

mayfield4 (2008-01-31)

dopeman - ur the best - i'd gladly eat the undigested peanuts from your faeces.

limabean2468 (2008-01-31)

how do u open it up once its downloaded?
all i see is a 7z file (?), an MS Info document, and an internet shortcut. Help!

limabean2468 (2008-01-31)

nvm, i got it

limabean2468 (2008-01-31)

wait, now when i extracted the file i come up with an MSDos document that doesn't work when i click on it. Help anyone?

limabean2468 (2008-01-31)

nvm, got it again.
i had to extract the ENTIRE folder, not just play_portal.bat
Blonde moment! :P

limabean2468 (2008-01-31)

sorry, i'm posting a lot of comments...
but while watching the extraction, i saw a file titled cake.dll
yay cake
probably just a false dll
THE CAKE IS A LIE!!!

martin_gustafsson112 (2008-01-31)

Thx for a very nice game.
i have finished the game and wanted to play more maps. I download one from http://portalmaps.net/browse.php but i can´t fix the console it never appears when i followed the instructions on that site plssss help. this game i awesome

oryano (2008-02-01)

For the people who were having the game crash after stepping through the first portal (which looks weird), did you get it fixed?
Better yet, did you find a torrent of this game that does work? Step forward!

Glitch712 (2008-02-02)

this always crashes for me as soon as i step through the first portal (and sometimes, just when chell becomes visible through the first portal from the side)
graphics settings on minimum, using the "pc suks" batch file...tbh it could be my crappy pc but i think the problems might come from the fact that this was ripped from the orange box rather than the stand-alone version of the game you can get on steam. anyone got a torrent for that?

dawnraider (2008-02-03)

SEED THIS BAD BOY NOW! its going to take about a day to get 9%

dubz840 (2008-02-05)

Technocian (2008-02-08)

When I use the "my PC sucks" portal.exe it loads the screen funky. Everything is higher then it looks so if I want to shoot the middle of the screen I need to point my mouse under it.

man...all the games you upload are nice but i got a little prob with that 1...i unrared everything,started the game,but when on the loading screen (before the menu shows up) the game minimizes and it says that it needs atleast DirectX 8 to run,when i have DirectX 9 can you help me with that?

devilsrage (2008-02-17)

ok fixed it but i got another "popular" prob...when i launch the game i click new game then new game again but nothing happens any suggestions?

dscm (2008-02-17)

does it need half-life 2 run it??

devilsrage (2008-02-17)

@dscm no i think it doesnt...but some1 please answer my question about the start new game bug ---> please~!

slippiefist (2008-02-18)

@devilsrage
I was having both problems mentioned by people in these comments: when I click either .bat nothing happens, when I start from the .exe it works but nothing happens when I click the new game button. This is how I got it to work:
Make a shortcut to h2.exe. Right click on the shortcut, choose Properties. Go to the Shortcut tab. In the Target box, add these parameters at the end, after the quotes:
-game portal -dxlevel 81 +mat_forcehardwaresync 0
So the Target box should contain:
"C:\Program Files\PoRTaL\hl2.exe" -game portal -dxlevel 81 +mat_forcehardwaresync 0
(assuming you put the game in C:\Program Files\PoRTaL)
If you're on Vista, you may want to go to the Compatibility tab and choose Run this program in compatibility mode for XP SP2.
Push apply, then OK. Use that shortcut to start the game, it should work. Good luck. Great game.

dscm (2008-02-18)

@devilsrage what kind of error does it says??

devilsrage (2008-02-19)

slippiefist thanks man it works now!!
@dscm nevermind its fixed

mostlyharmless1 (2008-02-26)

hey guys, everything works fine in the game but i have a minor annoyance. for some reason , when i shoot a portal it doesn't have the normal animation of the wall opening up, but there's some light and a bunch of swirling polygons. is this my own computer's fault? any way i can fix it?

mostlyharmless1 (2008-02-26)

okay, so now i tried to change some of the graphics options and it crashed. i tried to play it again, but it crashes every time i shoot a portal. shit.

DeadCruiser (2008-03-01)

This torrent kicks ass. Works perfectly for me, and also easy to get running. Nice job Dopeman.

Maxy_Dawg (2008-03-06)

those who are having portal problems:
I have posted about having problems myself, and the fact is, that if you cannot get through the first portal (containment cell to outside room) in the beginning of the game, or you have the light with swirling polygons portal, oyu must upgrade your graphics memory. If your computer is dated and has a regular PCI Bus like mine, I recommend the GeForce 6200, because it is cheap, and it seems to be working fine for me. On another note, thanks for the rip dopeman!

dmx_wyrw (2008-03-07)

PURPLE / Pink TEXTURES are Fixed by setting the shaders to low in the options.

sp33dm3tal138 (2008-03-08)

Great up man, tops. Also, thanks for the "MyPC_SuKS_PoRTaL.bat" 'cause my PC...well, sucks.

kudosa (2008-03-12)

For those who dont know: Dopeman torrents >
You dont need to "install" just run from the game folder.
You cant patch unless there is a specific dopeman patch.
You cant play online unless you use a private server.
You will need to install directx and /or ageis phsyx which will be included.
Files sizes are smaller because the game has been specially hacked to reduce size. (movies etc re-encoded)
Doctors dont use leeches anymore, Seed your torrents.

Ia there some way to change the graphics manualy?

Falleen_Fan_No_1 (2008-03-28)

Okay, so i did the whole "create a shortcut and add the parameters" thing perfectly.
I downloaded the patch, and placed it in the same directory as engine.dll (the bin directory). I tried opening the patch (it's an exe) and i got "C:.......half-life.2.episode.two-patch is not a valid Win32 application"
Still, it doesn't work!!! I get the Valve and Source logos, but then it gives the DirectX 8 error!!! Please help!!! I REALLY REALLY REALLY want to play this game!

S3MM7 (2008-03-30)

Maybe u have to update ur DX8 to DX 9?

plz seed! :)

Falleen_Fan_No_1 (2008-03-31)

No, i have DX9, but it keeps telling me that there's a min. requirement of DX8.....
HELP!!!!

freezindevil (2008-04-05)

Falleen_Fan_No_1, I believe it's your hardware that does not support DX8 and not that you do not hav DX9 installed.
Try upgrading to a card that uses NV20/R200 or later G/VPUs. ie GeForce 3/Radeon 9000 or later, excluding GeForce 4 MX
Also try updating your drivers.
Regards.

firebirdfx (2008-04-09)

Quatroking (2008-04-23)

Works. Like Dopeman says, unrar and play. Even Steam Community works in it!

Tannu27 (2008-04-24)

How i can download PRTL.7Z on my computer (PRTL.7Z) please help me

wildcat.nl (2008-04-26)

You can find it on the iso i guess.. Look for a folder called dopeman or crack or something like that... I didn't download it myself so it's just a guess!

GNUlancer (2008-04-27)

Everything's great except pink-black sky in the final scene which wouldn't get fixed by setting shader detail to 'low'. Maybe there should be an extra texture or two? :)

ClonedDog (2008-04-28)

It wont really start...
It stops after 10 seconds. Maybe i didt something wrong ... but if you know what it is tell it pleas!

smacksak (2008-04-30)

yea me too. it quits after the valve intro

Nowtheworld336 (2008-04-30)

The game downloaded and plays fine, but the scenery was severly glitched, the walls kept changing all kinds of funk colors, and would the game would freeze/studder a lot with me. Tho i seem to be the only on with this problem ?

CabJunk (2008-05-02)

I have a problem ... when it have finished count down in the start it crashes :S

Torrentgrampa (2008-05-05)

CabJunk (2008-05-06)

ilikemonkeys (2008-05-07)

can't play...

d0min8rix (2008-05-10)

I can get the game to launch but then this error comes up "Invalid or corrupt background texture materials/console/background1.vtf"
Is this a problem with the file or a compatibility problem? I'm running 32-bit vista premium with DirectX 10.
Any help would be appreciated, I'm totally at a loss and REALLY wanna start playing this.
Thanx guys.

xenomex (2008-05-11)

pluto_the_renewer (2008-05-13)

Awesome game! Thanks for this torrent.
The only complaint I had was that my video card wasn't compatible on my PC and had to switch to a recently bought laptop. Otherwise it runs great!

Reynardin (2008-06-04)

For some reason it only worked in the "MyPC_SiKS_PoRTaL.bat" verson, but aside from that, thanks for giving us access to a great game.
5 hours down the drain =D (its too bad that about a third of that was spent downloading instead of playing =( )

Mediciman (2008-06-04)

Thanks.
Works good.
I have a Question,
Does anyone know if/Where I could download the developers commentary?
Cause' That would be really nice to have without downloading a 2GB file.
Thanks.

rapzeh (2008-06-08)

works perfectly !
thanks Dopeman !

olegnep (2008-06-08)

hey all , i finished portal but was left wanting more and then i found this on stumbleupon
http://portalmaps.wecreatestuff.com/
free , legal , awesome. gives another 4 - 6 hours of play.
I'm playing through it right now
*this is not spam , i just thought it would interest you all*

thegands (2008-06-13)

to repeat what dmx_wyrw said,
if you're having a problem with purple textures on certain walls, turn the shaders down to low in advanced graphics options. Worked like a charm for me.
Thanks dope!

dirkzen (2008-06-14)

Quick fixes for those who don't want to read every comment on here.
If you're playing this with vista, and it crashes, right click, switch compatibility to windows xp.
Crashes anywhere else on any system, even under 'my pc suks', you got a 99% chance its a video card issue, your pc truley sucks ass.
((steam has some kind of patch, but good luck with gettin it to work with Dope's work here... no disrespect bro. ))
Get a better video card. Even a cheap one with 256mb will work. Other than that.. some grapics cards just plain won't work with some games.

winchester_34 (2008-06-16)

great torrent!! thanks

disc_man (2008-06-20)

everything is perfect except for one small thing. SPOILER WARNING in the ending cutscene, the texture for the sky is missing, so it shows a purple and black checkerboard. just a small glitch, but its perfect otherwise. thx

phry (2008-06-21)

worked awesomely!

hoswai (2008-06-27)

it only downloads at 3-10 kb/s

catwalkass (2008-07-01)

Dopeman can you please help me. When i try to start playing it says: This command prompt is disabled by administrator. But i am administrator. Can you tell me what should i do. Please and thank you.

bulletcowboy (2008-07-07)

The bat files don't do shit bar make my p.c ( quadcore ) make a "bleep" noise when I extract I got fully up2date everythin' & all other PC games by Dopeman work ( except Pro evo 08 ) can any1 help ?

Higgzyprophets (2008-07-08)

I can't open it.

alex316 (2008-07-08)

I need help please. So i successfully downloaded the game. So at the beginning of the game there is a countdown and then after it finishes counting down a portal will appear. But then right away after the portal appears, the game crashes. I have windows vista and ran the game in compatibility to XP but it still doesn't work. I used all the bat files and the exe.
Please help i'll appreciate it!

NeverWest (2008-07-11)

Crashes with Vista:
GET XP!!! Vista has too many problems.

Wohypzor (2008-07-13)

Tyvm! Game worked perfectly for me.

NeverWest (2008-07-13)

Great game, works perfect.

Dragunhart (2008-07-17)

Vista users:
If you are crashing and when you check your crash info, it says that the "Fault Module" for the crash is shaderapidx9.dll
You might have a WMI problem.
Go here to fix it, REAL easy, no-download, 3-5 step solution trust me.
This fixed my problem for even starting up Portal

Dragunhart (2008-07-17)

Wow sorry, forgot the link.

Silly me.

js1438 (2008-07-17)

Thanks Soooo much 420dopeman! There was no problems whatsoever! Granted i had to use the 'MyPC_SuKS_PoRTaL.bat' but it still worked perfect! And great download rate!

Aceskies (2008-07-18)

But I have Windows XP and the problem persist. When the first minute of the game ends, and I am going to exit the room, it crashes. I have also Vista style, but I dont think that the problem was these.
(Sorry, my english level is bad XD). Help!

This fixes the Directx8 problem:

But if your videocard is a hundred years old, life just sucks :(

blakpoison (2008-08-10)

I'm having the same problem as Aceskies, in that the game crashes after the minute countdown is over. It says there is a problem with half life 2 and does that "send" or "don't send" the problem to microsoft thing.
help me please!!!

Ljas (2008-08-10)

Great torrent, except that I can't unrar it. Winrar and 7zip just say "can not open output file" on just about every file in the package. How do I make it work? :/

ekgutten (2008-08-10)

I have a problem:
The game works perfect, but the console won't open...

Kolchev (2008-08-14)

I have an issue that you might be able to help me with. My comp sucks, and your version of portal with the "my comp sucks" app works perfectly. but, I can't play the hl anthology on it. and I would absolutely love to be about to play them. I was wondering if you could put up a version of the hl anthology that could run on a crappy PC. and I noticed that you have it hl2 E2 up but could you do it with just hl2 with that app.
P.S. you rock, and this version of portal is straight from god.

VEpP (2008-08-15)

When I start the game, the usual Valve splash screen appears, but then the rest of the time the entire screen is white. Just blank. I can hear sounds, but can't do anything.

VEpP (2008-08-15)

Nevermind.... It just randomly started working after the 20th try...

sigjack215 (2008-08-16)

I downloaded some bonus maps (portal the flash version mappack) for this and i'm getting big flashing red "ERROR", invisible vents, white haze, purple walls, and missing items while i'm playing. what's wrong?

lvasylp (2008-08-21)

Can anyone explain this; On the download screen it says it's 99.8 percent downloaded, but it's way over 583.32 MiB. Also before it got to 99.8 % it was going really really fast but now it's been there for over an hour and it won't budge, yet the screen still says it's going way past 583.32. What's going on?

True-Haven (2008-08-25)

Perfect torrent Dope!!! All you have to do is unzip, and click and play!! No installation so its uber easy!!!

Juuti (2008-10-14)

The game works but I cant change settings because in the settings window I cant see any text and also for example if I press quit I cant see the yes and no text (if that is what reads in there).

dmoore99999 (2008-10-21)

this is a great rip except one thing...
when i start, as soon as the portal out of your sleeping room opens, the game freezes and windows cant figure out why. any ideas?

Viivamies (2008-10-21)

Im having same problem as dmoore99999.
Goes just fine in the start, but when its going to open first portal, game freezees and comes error message.
Plz somebody, awnser this problem.

Anarith (2008-11-05)

LawrenceX (2008-12-05)

600MB (from 1.3GB) is great, but I've seen 1GB compressed till 163MB. Go check it out for stronghold crusader extreme.
btw I had a few glitch the first time
1. You can never click on hl2.exe
2. Play_portal.bat wont work the first time
3. Click on MyPC_SuKS_PoRTaL.bat. I changed it to 800x600. that's all
4. Play_portal.bat is working now.

And it works great on my vista x64! thanks dopeman.

spc7533 (2008-12-11)

I even checked if I can handle it and I can.

Nemesis1326 (2008-12-13)

How do I and what is Seeding?

Nemesis1326 (2008-12-13)

Once the file stops downloading it starts seeding. Now what do I do.

Nemesis1326 (2008-12-13)

How many times does it take to work Lawrence?

Nemesis1326 (2008-12-13)

I also have the first portal problem. What the hell's up.

danieljackson (2008-12-22)

For all you people complaining that is doesn't work its not the game, its **YOUR** COMPUTER**.
Quit your bitching and get a new one or at the very least a new graphics card. Has anyone heard from dopeman lately as he hasn't uploaded anything new for quite some time.

DoomsdayTomorrow (2008-12-23)

my comp says that it needs a directx version 8 or higher... i have the newest version! someone rly help me so i can help others with same problem... OR say a good other torrent which is ''RIP''

Norvegr (2008-12-25)

When I escape the walls are pink!
Everything is pink! :(
Please help me.

AshenSeraphim (2008-12-26)

Well, works fine for me on Vista x64.
Only problem is that the sound skips a bit, like when GlaDos is talking it will skip forward and cut off a random word/letter in her little speeches.
It's annoying, but hopefully it will go away. Nothing that makes it unplayable, though. ;]
Thanks Dopeman for another clean, easy to use torrent!

camydoger (2008-12-28)

Yeah this works great on my laptop but on my desktop it does the "First portal crashes the game" thing. That is proof that it isnt the game thats bad, its your pc nothing else.
Also, some of the textures dont load properly and come out as purple. I suppose it helps to identify non-portable walls.

Death_Banana (2008-12-30)

Thanks SO MUCH! Everything works great!

NeftyPR (2009-01-08)

Working 100%. Sometimes it randomly crashes. Sad thing is that I beat the game about 1 or 2 hours. But it has unlocks, achievements and its very very fun to play. You can download custom maps too, I downloaded 40 Levels, they are very hard, Im kinda stuck. Heres the link http://portalmaps.wecreatestuff.com/
I get arround 25-50 FPS with MyPC_SuKS_PoRTaL, at low settings.
I get arround 10-25 FPS with Play_PoRTaL, at low settings.
My Specs:
Intel Pentuim 4 2.4ghz
Nvidia Geforce 6200 A-LE 256mb AGP
1GB Ram
80GB HD
IT HAS CONSOLE STOP SAYING IT DOESNT.
To Activate it, go to:
Options>Controls>Advanced...>Enable developer console
You can activate NoClip:
Press ~ to activate console
Type in: sv_cheats 1
Then: noclip
To deactivate it, type noclip again in console.
NoClip lets you go all around the map and "cheat". You can use this when you are stuck. If you are stuck google any walkthrough or go to YouTube then look for the chamber you are trapped.
Go to FPSBanana.com to download maps, skins and much more for alot of games including Portal.
Have fun.

elitefgt (2009-01-12)

Works perfect, fuck Steam! I am seeding for all!

Harrewho (2009-01-14)

Sometimes on some games when you have AGP (or just some random PCIcard) it get's pink, or it may depend on your drivers. Maybe some textures are missing in this torrent, or may be corrupted.

elitefgt (2009-01-15)

torrent is completely fine, my game probably crashed about twice and that was it everything else PERFECT, it's your **** graphics card

Sirlimpit (2009-01-17)

Ashen, it's supposed to do that. lul. GladOs is quite broken.

banditbob (2009-01-25)

Does anybody know if there is a way to add mods? I downloaded the portal prelude mod but can't get it to work

shdw3121 (2009-01-28)

hmm.. downloaded, it said i needed Direct X8.0 to play, but only after showing the first screen ads...
i got directX 9.0. and it STILL doesnt work. halp?

nippizs (2009-01-31)

How i can get this in steam?????? plz help

nippizs (2009-01-31)

or how i can get console in it

Mr.Pipa (2009-02-01)

The DirectX Problem should be solved here:

You guys really suck! I just searched in google for:
"This Game has a minimum requirement of dx 8.0 to run properly" ^^
Hope this works for you, I havent got it work yet.

Mr.Pipa (2009-02-01)

I got it work but; the portals doesn´t work! Only the edges of the portals is shown, the portal itself is still the wall and when i try to go through it the game crashes! HELP!!!

Mr.Pipa (2009-02-01)

WTF?! My whole system crashes while trying to go trhough the portals! Someone plz help! I have to get this game!! ;(

DServ1037 (2009-02-03)

This doesn't work. Anyone who says it does is lying. End of story.

Mr.Pipa (2009-02-04)

IT WORKS! Just a few problems... and my system crashes because i dont have a real version of windows XP H.E.

Haeres (2009-02-06)

Works perfectly, just stuck at the forelast level.
Seems, going by the walkthruogh, you need to do some quick moves...I'm no good at that in Portal...
Anyone got an idea where to find some solid cheats or something to get past it? The puzzle is solved in my head, so I shouldn't feel guilty if I cheat, lol. =P

diss4life (2009-02-10)

well im always really sketchy DLing pirated games.
i have a near heart attack when something goes a bit astray, and after DLing a shitload of apps and games, no viruses yet.
peple gotta realise not EVERYTHING is a virus.
specially this.
game works fine no errors lovin it! better framerate than my steam demo for some reason :D
scanned with trend micro antiv and spy sweeper
clean
no problems playing on my vista 64 rig.
DL AND ENJOI!
i like the whole NO install thing ;D

gr3g0s (2009-02-15)

Works 100% for me!! good if you dont want anything but the original portal!
i downloaded the flash version maps, thanks for the link nefty, very challenging and lots more fun, i'm kinda stuck coz some objects arent there, most of the time you can get through but near the end there are pipes that you need to jump onto that are "error" text and you just fall through. looks like i'm d/ling another version without too much stuff taken out

Bladt (2009-02-15)

Great up. works perfectly using vista x64.
Dopeman: the batch file u use to start portal is pretty unneccesary as all it does is run the hl2 exe, and promote you ;-) still a great up. I was pleased to see you've made the "my pc sucks" etc. etc. i find no use for it myself. but i dig the fact that you made it for those who do

vanindo (2009-02-24)

when i try and run either the play portal batch or the my computer sucks batch it doesnt run and says its an error with hl2.exe after the screen goes black for about 1 second.
could any of you tell me what my problem is? k tnx

Butterzroxxx (2009-02-24)

EVERYONE HAVING THE PINK/PURPLE WALL PROBLEM:
I found that if you go into options->video->advanced and then make shader detail "low" it fixes it. Well, at least for me.

Mr.Pipa (2009-03-15)

... and the problem is that i cant se through the portals and when i go through them my system crashes. Could a BIOS update fix this?

MasterSha (2009-03-15)

i tried the shortcut but in compatibility mode it didn't have the choice xp sp2 or anything else xp and when i tried to add the things to the target it wouldn't let me I swear if someone helps me i will seed this torrent for 3 months

Thank You

JaZZySepH (2009-03-26)

Great torrent man works perfectly on my 32 bit vista. But i am having one small problem, evertime i close the game down and go back to it later it displays a message saying 'Only one instance of the game can be running at one time' even though it isn't running. I've been gettin around it by signing off and then back on my screen name, and that seems to work. Was just wondering if theres any other way of fixing this problem? Thankx mate

spakmakare (2009-03-27)

Hi!

Yet another amazing torrent by Dopeman! very fast downloading aswell!

Thank you verry mutch!

RedAlert7 (2009-04-04)

MrPipa & mastershaw:
The simple reason why your computers doe not work is because they are crap., mine is crap but not nearly as bad as yours. no hard feelinhgss, but you REALYL need to get a new video card, and if you want to do any serious gaming upgrade your ram. processor two, you need a minimum 2.0 single core processor tor un almostt any game at minimum setting.

bored12 (2009-04-05)

downloaded at 250 kB/s in an hour, worked great on my vista business :D

bored12 (2009-04-05)

well, this sucks, after the second time i tried to re-open it, it didnt work, i tried the mypcsuks thing, didn't work, and the normal play_portal didnt work either

bored12 (2009-04-08)

oh, its working again after a reboot

chrisw91 (2009-04-08)

Thanks, you maxed out my dl speed with all the seeder :D, can't wait to play it

zackismet (2009-04-09)

There is absolutely nothing wrong with this torrent
NO install, NO complicated unpacking (after unrar ;p) ... just click "play"
the only reason anything will go wrong is if your computer isn't powerful enough to run this program, as it runs very thick code.
I have 2G RAM, GeForce9800, ect. Pretty much best thing on the market 3 (2?) years ago (minus 4GB RAM) for a laptop, and I still had my graphics glitching every now and then.
If the "mypcsucks" tightened version doesn't work for you, then you're just SOL
amazing job, dope. I aspire to have your understanding of programming some day.

xCrappyx (2009-04-17)

OW MY FUCKING HOLY SHIT!
Ok I downloaded this torrent and extracted it.
Then I started the game and it had an error about the Directx thing. BUT I FIXED IT ALREADY
OK NOW I CAN START THE GAME.
I was on the menu and clicked new game and start a new game.
So now I'm in this cube like shit and doing shitty stuffs while a shitty woman voice speaks.
And so she says the portal will open in 3.. 2.. 1..
AND HOLY CAMOLY COW AND APE SHIT
THE GAME CRASHES EVERYTIME THE FIRST PORTALS OPEN!
APE SHIT! APE SHIT! APE SHIT!
PLEASE HELP???????

papasmurfff (2009-04-22)

I'm a newb.... what the hell does unrar mean???

FluffedMonkeyPoo (2009-04-24)

Thanks works perfect. Pretty much if you're getting an error, you need to upgrade your graphics card. Interegated gpu's wont cut it.

liam10 (2009-05-02)

HOPE THIS WORKS. i will seeeeed
6 HOURS LEFT TO I CAN PLAY :)
CANT W8

WendigoO (2009-05-16)

I am soooooo glad I didn't pay for this game. Great Upload and thanx for it, cause otherwise I would have wasted money on the chance to play a game that I beat in 3 hours. Very playable bo no real replay value. Puzzles aren't random, so once you figure them out there's no point in doing it again. I died a total of 3 times playing the game all the way thru. If I had paid more than $5 for this I would have been pissed, as it is I thank dopeman and TPB for saving me that aggravation. Thanx all!

WendigoO (2009-05-16)

*oops - "playable but no replay" sorry for the typo

Darkmatter0 (2009-05-29)

Excellent DL speed, done in under 15 mins, nice, and 46/2 seeds/leechers ratio extremely nice! I'll seed for a few weeks just for you dopeman.

swgeek10056 (2009-06-03)

using windows xp sp3 with integrated gfx card..
game crashes soon after starting due to direct x error.
i have direct x 9.1 (or whatever the newest is) and its telling me i need direct x 8.1 or higher. i've already done research so im going back to the source... in other words: anyone know a fix?

darthnegate (2009-06-04)

downloaded, and am seeding forever!
besides the occasional skipping, very good game and i beat it a few hours =P
download and seed this shit!

Nevan2479 (2009-06-05)

55Slickuser (2009-06-08)

Thanks for wasting a couple of hours of my life, I installed it then followed the shitty instructions and it didn't work, I won't be downloading from you again....

Laitela (2009-06-08)

OK... I am very grateful of you! I am running Vista 32x and everything is fine... Guys, just don't mess up and it will work perfectly. I even added this to Steam and I can chat via Steam while playing this... Btw, maybe the best game ever ;)

oxide17 (2009-06-10)

works fine after you add to the shortcut info on page 18 i think.
do it and it wont freeze

Mutter42 (2009-06-13)

what do i do? i downloaded the game... i did unrar it and when i klick th e play portal.bat only cmd window will open for a few seconds and then nothin happenes! tell me what to do!?

arthur24681 (2009-06-15)

i got the same effing problem as Mutter42... this is the 3rd turrent i try to get this game and again not working, windows vista sucks ass! HELP PLZ!!

arthur24681 (2009-06-16)

laitela how did you download this exacly?? i have a vista 32x

SamFisher440 (2009-06-17)

Works great. Downloaded super fast.
If you're having the error happen after the first Portal I can confirm that it is most likely a graphics card problem. I recently moved from a Geforce2 to a Geforce4 Ti and the game works now.

Hope that link works. If not, go to YouTube and search Half Life 2 Directx Fix. The link should be in the 'more info' part.
The site has patches for the Engine.dll for Half Life 2 Ep2, Portal and Team Fortress 2 for people with Directx 7 cards.
I can't confirm that it will work for Portal but it's a possibility.
The Ep2 one. I wouldn't bother. You'll have many graphical issues. Rainbow colors included, lol.
I've never had a problem with a Dopeman release that couldn't be easily fixed. It's always in the NFO or requires something simple like renaming a folder.
Thank you Dopeman for you many, fantastic releases.
I will seed this for a few weeks or so.

YumiZumi (2009-06-19)

Is this Portal or Portal: First Slice?

HOLY SHIT! GREAT TORRENT! Speeds of 500kb/s or more the whole time.

qrafzvwtsgxb (2009-06-25)

Awesome download speed. Thanks for the game, which doesnt work on my BRAND NEW COMPUTER. Oh, and one more thing:
THANKS FOR THE VIRUS, ASSHOLE! never downloading from you again.

Djandjan (2009-06-27)

to crappy, other users(who get error), and me. The error after 3,2,1 (and quiting)means tht your graphic card can't support the game. Just stop playing and delete it. You cant do anything to solve it other than buying a better graphic card. I have a 64mb card and it dont work.

Llurdaen (2009-06-29)

direct X error I have direct X and half life, half life 2, counter strike source etc all work....

GonGon1 (2009-07-09)

Awesome, worked PERFECTLY :D Thanks!

twilight13 (2009-07-14)

every time I start portal i get an bsod at lvl 14 can anybody help me!! i lookt everywere and I can't find nothing.

Risket (2009-07-15)

It works great but I seem to have problems when trying to add new maps. I also seem to be unable to access the console window to play around with any cheats.
This is really awesome game. It's very easy and you can beat it in a few hours but it's still a great game.

prakhar20 (2009-07-15)

Whahah :( this just isn't working.first it was showing that it needs DirectX 8 although i had DirectX 9 then i patched the engine.dll then the game started working but after the countdown when the portal opens it looks wierd with squares with diagonals circling it and when i try to go through the portal the games crashes.it happens with both the .bat files(playportal and mypcsucks) .Please help me..:( i want to play this game so badly .any help is appreciated

enclavespyder (2009-07-31)

This was awsome man! ur the best! it runs great and everything works only downside is tht it cant count as u bought it on steam so u cant do achievments but i downlaoded it today and i beat it! noting went wrong! ive been seeding ever since it finish Dl'ing! THNX much!
EVERY1 SEEEEED!

saladful (2009-07-31)

Doesn't work for me. I tried both .bats, tried to add the parameters to the shortcut, the result stays the same: Game starts, shows the Valve and Source screen and the blurred menu background shows up, but here the application freezes and can only be closed via the Task Manager. My PC is good enough to run it, yes, and i have the newest directx installed. What can I do (besides buying the original and playing Portal Flash?)

legilas78123 (2009-08-01)

Woah!!!!! 650 kb/sec !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

pandeixonz (2009-08-02)

... :(
when i open de .bat file, a error says the hl2.exe has a problem and need to be closed... both of the .bat
so i try to open the hl2.exe file, and an alarm says: "Setup file 'gameinfo.txt' doensn't exist in subdirectory 'hl2'. Check if your -game parameter or VCONFIG setting'...
whyyyyyy? i wanna play ;____;

SamFisher440 (2009-08-04)

Has anyone been able to use Half Life 2 with this. I followed the Primotech tutorial but it just caused Portal to crash. The tut was for if you have both steam versions of the two, which I don't. All you need to do is move the HL2 maps and scripts folder into Portals but when I loaded Portal and chose one of the HL2 maps to load, the screen flicked and game crashed.

neon4 (2009-08-05)

ou yea, 2mb/s :)

bmff (2009-08-15)

okay, downloaded (fast speed!) and i have vista 32bit. extracted, tried play_portal.bat and it froze, so i tried mypcsuks.bat Lol.
it got to the loading screen, then main menu. haven't tried the actual game yet, but it works!
Thank you dopeman!
(And apparently "advanced chambers" Dont work? True or false?)

Morphie (2009-08-20)

Dopeman's version of Portal -> SUCKS. Sorry to say this, it is Way More Buggy than the other torrent 'Portal - Unleashed' the first thing I discovered of Dopeman's version was the bonus levels crashing... cheap RIPs like this suck ass!
I suggest I have tried the both versions and I can tell 100% sure that Portal-Unleashed is better version and works flawlessly for a RIP and you can make it to be detected in Steam also.

Hagn99 (2009-08-30)

works great. thx for uploading

Itwazntme (2009-09-05)

WUT!? this game is WIERD!

soclose310 (2009-10-10)

It works perfectly! I've beaten the game now. Thanks Dopeman! And this is the first torrent I've downloaded from you...
Is there a way to add this to Steam?

soclose310 (2009-10-10)

and... THE CAKE IS A LIE!

s8nskeeper (2009-10-26)

WARNING.
After playing this my machine contracted Anti Virus System Pro. It's taken me more time to clean the PC than it took me to finish the game. (1h 30 minutes if you must know)
I've not downloaded anything else, or done anything else on my machine. This must have been the source.
Game is fantastic though,

elitefgt (2009-11-16)

this worked perfectly for me, seeding for the win

Riyukko (2009-11-18)

Slow download, but worked perfectly once I extracted it. Not a single problem. Thanks!

muse_[13]_bliss (2009-11-29)

really fast torrent!
but i cant play,
i try and run it and it says it requires Directx 8
and im using Directx 9 :/

robot456 (2009-11-29)

WORKED PERFECTLY!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH and for the small size :)

LucasAlfa (2009-12-07)

Work for me in the mypcsuks.bat With Portal.bat keeps crashing. Even so in the end after the final battle I'm got a cenario mostly with black and purples squares and the manetence areas have a lot of purple. I'm believe this is some kind bug on my part because in Counter Strike Simpsons house map i always get this black and purple squares in one of the cars. Besides that work great (just played the main 19 levels not the bonus). Thanks for this mate. Totaly worth.

Oxyfast (2010-01-23)

THANK YOU DOPEMAN!
I just wanted to take a moment to sincerely think you, Doperman, for this upload and the numerous others of yours that I have downloaded and enjoyed greatly recently.
I can't even believe some of the comments on this (and all) torrents.
For example: "Thanks for wasting a couple of hours of my life, I installed it then followed the shitty instructions and it didn't work, I won't be downloading from you again.... "
I can't imagine what this kiddo is like in real life. Probably the kid that all the teachers hate and none of the kids want to sit by. The kid that gets a new car for 13th birthday and throws a fit and kicks it because he doesn't like the color.
I just don't understand what this person is even thinking...
To the kiddo that wrote that and all of the comments like it: Go play in traffic, don't come bitching like a prom queen to a good torrent because you are "bad at computer". The person who put out this (obviously good) torrent put a lot of effort into ripping it, packaging it, accurately .nfo-ing it, and seeding it initially. What did you do? Probably nothing, you probably don't upload more than 3kbps while downloading and sure as fuck don't seed. You've done nothing. The people who rip these and the people who seed them do these things for community benefit and AS A GIFT in a sense, so don't come running your mouth as though you were owed this.
This torrent happens to be perfect, however if it were not that would not give reason to leave a personal attack on the poster. Only that the torrent didn't work for you - Beggars can not be choosers.
The next time any of you idiots like 55Slickuser look a gift horse in the mouth and blabs around like a toddler, I hope it straight kicks you in the cunt on your face that you call a mouth.
ANYHOW -
This torrent is perfect, 100%. I had no issue whatsoever using the standard .bat file to start it. No missing textures, graphics issues, broken levels, missing sound, none of that at all. Unrar and play. Perfect.
I've learned I can trust Dopeman rips at this point. His Half Life Ep. 1 and Half Life Ep. 2 are also perfect. The single very minor issue involving an NPC not boarding a train in Ep. 2 is discussed at length in the Dopeman readme and includes a simple fix for it. That is quality. (if you look at the comments on there you can see all of the 55Slickuser type of third graders crying about the elevator problem, clearly never having read the readme or any of the dozens of comments. If it werent for the fact they had to type their message to begin with, I swear I'de think these people couldn't read)

elitefgt (2010-01-24)

Oxyfast you can be passionate by seeding, you don't have to comment.

xalexgc (2010-01-28)

nah just 65kb/s common guys i want this file

elitefgt (2010-01-28)

If you are getting slow download, it means you are not uploading enough. Good uploaders get 700kbs-1.5mbs dl speed.

ThinkCreative (2010-02-02)

Very good torrent, I only seem to be missing textures, which makes me unable to end the whole game without using the developers console.

dushanbe4 (2010-02-05)

jra64 (2010-02-15)

How do you get normal settings back?!
I ran MyPC_SuKS_PoRTaL.bat and now the settings won't go back to the badass graphical settings. I reinstalled, even downloaded a different Portal torrent, still nothing. In the bat I see it sets these settings:
hl2.exe -game portal -window -dxlevel 81 +mat_forcehardwaresync 0
I can't seem to change those in settings, if I copy the bat and change them there (which I haven't tried yet) it will probably work. But I STILL want to know where these settings are being saved on my computer. Someone please respond, I'm fixing to nuke my computer because I've been meaning to for a long time.

elitefgt (2010-02-17)

jra64 copy the bat and replace the commands with -autoconfig

jra64 (2010-02-18)

elitefgt: Cool! I appreciate it man. Would you (or anyone else) happen to know where these settings are saved on the computer though? Because even if you download a different portal, it's the same settings for all of them. I'd really like to know, or at least have a way to check the current settings.

jra64 (2010-02-19)

Also, when you complete some of the advanced chanbers, I get a crash. I'll check which ones. Anyone know how to correct it?

elitefgt (2010-02-19)

i think the settings are stored in properties of the exe, and the advanced chambers will randomly crash because when you complete them the game tries to save your score to the Steam servers, but as Steam isn't running it crashes

zxkb4s29 (2010-02-22)

does NOT work.

osquu_94 (2010-02-23)

works great on my dual core laptop with vista, but how do I get the console open, since now the game is not on steam and I can't write console to properties? help anyone?:( :D

muse-13-bliss (2010-02-25)

good download speeds, 180kb/s
but i cant play it, it says it requires Directx 8.0 to run
im using directx 9 :/
any help?

elitefgt (2010-02-25)

osquu_94, you need to modify the .bat file so it contains -console
muse-13-bliss, try to configure your gfx card to use dx8 via its control panel, otherwise trying adding -dxlevel 90 to your bat file

mobe12 (2010-03-03)

hey great d/l only problem i am having is getting it to run, both .bat's get me to the valve and steam adds then it crashes any help?

elitefgt (2010-03-04)

mobe12 what are you talking about? you don't need steam with this version

x4u2sm0ke (2010-03-05)

i just downloaded and i used my pc sucks portal because play portal wouldnt get past the loading screen. and on my pc sucks portal, in the very beginning a computer makes the first portal and whenever i look at it the game fails im and i meet the requirements.

FacelessFox (2010-03-10)

Wow. Downloaded in like 8 min. I'll be seeding lots and lots. Heard a lot of good things about this game ^^ Hope it's good

paves911 (2010-03-15)

I am having the same issue as ALOT of people. somebody please for the love of god answer. I've tried running both the regular version AND the my pc sux version.. I know for a fact everything has extracted okay. What happens is, the run window opens up and says that portal is initializing. then it says for fullscreen, change the setting in the menu. then the game starts SORT OF. The valve screen appears, and then it goes to the Steam screen... but rather than go to the game after that, it all just closes..
SOMEBODY PLEASE HELP.
so many people have had this problem.I've already beaten this game on xbox but i want it for nostalgia purposes :P

paves911 (2010-03-15)

inm sorry i made a mistake in my last comment.. the two screens that go by are for valve and then for source, not steam

xEp1cAzNx (2010-03-29)

why is it during the first mission once the portal opens the game crashes? (this is on the sucky computer mode)

xEp1cAzNx (2010-03-29)

edit- nevermind instead i cant look at a portal... why? D:

ozzula (2010-03-31)

very fast torrent and game runs with no problems

MarcFirewing (2010-03-31)

Great torrent, only two or so problems that I've found.
1.) Sometimes when starting up, the screen is off to the right but fixes itself when it loads up
2.) The Bonus map I tried crashed when I completed it.

peeebody (2010-04-02)

to lazy to read through the 506 comments but does this version have the updated ending leading to the sequel they are making? going to download anyways since it's such a great game

karlXVIhubertusbernadotte (2010-05-11)

zammysage22 i lol'd is the problem that hard to solve:

DeadHeadProd (2010-06-14)

I run the game and it works like a dream, until i get out of the detention center and it crashes with a "MyPC_SuKS_PoRTaL.bat has stopped working" and the same message came up with the other file :/ please help

Agnostos (2010-06-18)

this torrent doesnt work, how did you guys get it to work at all i cant figure out how to make the game run

raefaybro (2010-06-19)

THIS GAME RUNS GREAT!!!
the only problem i ran into was that all of the metal in the escape level and the acid was purple instead of what color it should have been - any help for that would be nice
p.s. the cake is a lie....
p.s.s. go to www.aperturescience.com and type login where the flashing box is - Username:CJOHNSON
password:TIER3
then try entering NOTES APPLY and PLAY PORTAL...
Dopeman... YOU ARE THE MAN!!!

Basstm (2010-06-22)

LOL I started downloading this and went to toilet. when I got back I saw 55% compleated and download speed was ~5 mb/s xD All I got to say is - thanks guys ^^

razorjonas (2010-06-23)

When I run the bat. portal comes up and then every thing shuts down.. wtf?

PulseCld (2010-06-28)

Thank you for this.
I played it and loved it. Great game.
The only problems (aside from no commentaries) I had were:
- GLaDOS's (the robot who talks to you all the time) voice was totally corrupted: it was like sped up and jamming and.. well, I couldn't understand anything he was saying. I had to turn subtitles on to understand what the hell was going on on that game.
- After finishing any "Bonus Level" the game crashed. Every time.
Thanks though, but I'll have to download ANOTHER torrent to have a great working Portal, which, again, was awesome.

-copy/cut prelude folder (this means the folder just above cfg/maps/materials) to the same directory as hl2 and portal from this torrent
-rename the folder to xxx or whatever you like, at least without spaces
-copy and rename the PlayPortal.bat, and edit the new bat file where it says "hl2 -game portal" to "hl2 -game xxx"
-play :)

For anyone getting the: "This game has a minimum requirement of DirectX8.0 to run properly" error, you'll want to:
1. Make sure you have the latest DirectX
2. Make sure your graphics card supports PixelShaders 2.0
PixelShaders are REQUIRED, no amount of fiddling with the program files will fix it.

Thanx on behalf of all the people who still don't have internet (I'm DLing this on a friend's computer)! Fuck Steam and fuck Valve! They make great games but they suck at commercial strategies: I would actually have bought HL2 if it didn't require an internet connexion, but Valve forced me to download a cracked version...

vonIgor (2010-09-27)

Dude, srs, you could buy the box set with HL2, TF2 and portal :P but, dling is fun so, why not dl!

Do what you want couse a pirate is free :D And spare the bullcrap, we steal, we like it and YES we are badass just for that! Release groups are more badass but that's another story :P

jcishere (2010-11-26)

If the game doesn't work and it freezes when you got through the portal No its not the game itself basically its a glitch with Intel graphics so if you have intel chips forget it ain't gana work lol you can get through the first level if you go through the portal without looking at it lol as soon as you look at it boom game crashes.

Gymnosp (2010-11-28)

I have an Intel graphics card and it works fine.. and I'm on a laptop too.

JackNitroWins (2011-01-04)

Quite a few textural issues...
Other than that though, game works great and plays to the end. Thanks 4 the upload

mattski123 (2011-01-06)

Portal doesn't work/does work because, the game goes past the valve thingy at the intro and as soon as it gets to that blurry loading... screen it says "hl2.exe has stopped working" "close program" any ideas?

zamzaa (2011-01-08)

Nice torrent, looking good so far for the speed and stuff.

AutoDeskMaya (2011-01-18)

Hey Dopeman? Friends don't let friends 7z.
You're better than that, bro.

BBBDaman556 (2011-03-08)

ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGH CANT INSTALL MAPS!!!! But still awesome d/l, everything perfect although some lags but that was my PC. I had my C:/ drive formatted so cant seed, sorry. But if youre looking for Portal, dont wanna add any mods, any maps, or any extras, just plain original game, this is the one to go.

Jakemeow (2011-03-13)

Works perfectly, but when I escape the sky is purple-black tiles not a normal sky and rust parts are purple. Any ideas?

binaryfusion123 (2011-03-15)

DAVKLAV: is this Windows7 compatible cos i've downloaded it unrar'd it and i click the play_portal.bat and a black system screen pops up for a second then disappears .... thanks.

naxre22 (2011-03-28)

forget about the above comment, i just needed a new version of winrar, now i get same shit like some of you, black screen pops up for a bit then disapears

antidood1 (2011-03-30)

extracting all files in the .7z file to a folder and then running the .bat file solved the problem for me :)

mrmarcus1 (2011-04-02)

I just did a pre-order on Portal2 so I thought playing Portal1 would make me understand the story ;P

The game shuts down after the first portal is created in level 1, right after the computer counts down at the beginning.

TPBrocks (2011-04-26)

nevermask7 (2011-04-28)

Works perfectly, thanks. It stops working after a long time though, so you might need to unzip the files again if you dont play it after months at a time :P

Devil_Spawn (2011-04-29)

I have installed it once, but when i try to play it just re-installs -.- what should i do?

1Gamesforyou (2011-05-01)

Dopeman stands for awesomeness :D thank you bro.

superfastracer (2011-05-02)

this torrent works perfect on all my computers, never ever had a virus from dopeman, can't escape trolls where ever u go online.

superbull (2011-05-04)

he's probably right...this game is only 600 mb...the actual portal game is about 6 gb..portal two is about 10 gb...i'm not downloading..i don't know about you...

FiveManX (2011-05-10)

It works. No trojans or anything. If you are worried about viruses and trojans etc. then why are you on The Pirate Bay?

Slammer94 (2011-05-19)

Have you ever noticed how people who post VIRUS ALERTS in all caps and write it about a billion times are always wrong? This is COMPLETELY clean. [dopeman] is always to be trusted. Works brilliantly off a flashdrive too. Enjoy one of the coolest puzzle games ever created.

lolmaker1998 (2011-05-23)

thanks dopeman
all your cracks are working perfectly om my computer :D

tatuDowns (2011-06-16)

Works flawlessly. No problems at all . Completed the game in 3 hours. I was like, wtf, was that it ? ...
It was interesting and fun though, so thanks DopeMan!!!
