Portal Not Working in Source Unpack 2.3
5 years ago
United States

I've been trying to get Source Unpack to work for Portal for months now, and I've never been successful for various reasons. Currently, the reason it wont work (I think) is because, when running the downloader through 7-Zip, it gives me the error message "can not open output file C:\Users[My Name]\Downloads\portal[Game File]" for seemingly every file in the game (It goes on for several thousand lines). I have no idea why this is happening, and I can even get HL2 to run normally. When I try to run the actual Portal application (After it's done in 7-Zip, it does output the applications for both games, and like I said, HL2 works, but Portal wont), it gives me the error message "Setup file 'gameinfo.txt' doesn't exist in doesn't exist in subdirectory 'portal'. Check your -game perimeter or VCONFIG setting."

There isn't a lot of troubleshooting information online for Source Unpack online, so it'd be extremely helpful if someone here could help me through it. I want to start seriously running the game, however, with my Oob PB sitting a little over 19 minutes, there is a LOT to improve, and I want to have a decent time before I post my score.

Thanks for reading, and any ideas are appreciated

Audio requirements

Startong today, runs that require video proof (top 25) and runs beyond that where video is the only form of proof, now require audio, as recording audio for only the game is now a native OBS feature.
