That's what I did in the original version made in Portal 2, and the layers were connected with world portals.

I don't have regular access to world portals in the HL2 engine, and I wanted transit through the map in this remake to all be a continuous experience with no required teleports; the only teleports left are found in spots related to SCP-106. (This even applies with the elevators; in the Portal 2 version, they teleported you, while in this remake they move through actual physical euclidian space)

i know a way you might be able to connect atleast 2 of the maps together: put the maps ontop of eachother maybe that will help

i loved this Map in the portal 2 And i'm so glad i found this map you are a amazing map Builder Allos This girl loves it alot >w<

Folks will tell you that the Source Engine map size limit is surprisingly small--and that checks out. When I was remaking this map for Gmod, I initially tried to have everything under the same map file, like the original version, only for it to not work--I was forced to split it apart by engine limitations. I was surprised too. It's just a rule I have to follow under, else my maps will not work. [2/2]

Source Engine maps have an internal filesize limit. For shorthand, I tend to call it the "map budget"; if you exceed the "budget", the map will break and refuse to compile until you remove enough stuff to fit back within the budget. (This is the same reason that my New Donk map is missing the two buildings in the back corners of the city)

The original version of this map, built in Portal 2, only worked because of the ability for me to use world portals to link rooms non-euclidian-ly, and probably something to do with Portal 2's branch of Source being newer, being a product of 2011 while Half-Life 2 and its episodes span from 2004-2007. [1/2]

why cant they fit in a single map file they cant be THAT large right?

You need a keycard to use the keycard doors.

And, a full version "using the smaller versions"? I'm not sure what you mean. The full actual SCP game experience? No can do. Having all of the sections in one map file? Literally impossible, they can no longer fit in the same file in HL2 Source.

and i want a full version of the map using the smaller maps please

why dont the keycard doors open and close?

The bean counters told me we literally could not afford to buy seven dollars worth of scp-999, much less seventy million. Bought ‘em anyway. Engineers said the scp-999 were too adorable to experiment on. Tested on ‘em anyway. Ground ‘em up, mixed em into a gel. And guess what? Ground up scp-999 gel is pure poison. I am deathly ill. Still, it turns out they’re a great portal conductor.

Cave Johnson here CEO of The SCP Foundation thats right youv bean bought.

ye i was hoping for sum funny little lore

In the new lore for this map? Uhh, no one.
If it doesn't exist in the 20 documents I wrote for this map, then I haven't written anything for it.

If you were asking just in general though,
then metal ball

who's Wheatley?

nevermind i'm dumb i figured it out

How do I open the keycard door?

sorry but I needed to make sure everything was fine, the card started up ok

Do you have so little faith in me? I tell the truth.
If content is ever required, I will mention so in the description.
If there is no mention, then you do not need to mount any game content.
If you happen to see any missing assets in-game, that is when you come asking about it.

Portal content?

I would have mentioned if it needed content.

is it need more content? maybe css, hl2, l4d?

half life, portal, tf2, l4d and l4d2, and then scp!!!! its all connected

imagine walking into a containment chamber and suddenly seeing fuckin space core

I can't. They're specifically split apart because they're too big to contain in one map file anymore without world portals.

tbh, you should connect all 3 maps together

Select a level (indicated by a little light coming on green) and then hit the big green button

how do i activate the keycard dispenser thing

Imagine if Valve just did a collab whit the SCP:CB game whit the portal gun being SCP 106 portals and all turrets being NTF soldiers or turrerts from the SCP foundation being corrupted by SCP 079

aperture scp containment where apertures secret failed tests end up like remember that mantis human thing cave talked about in chapter 6 well thats why they switched it out for something else

aperture science handheld anomaly device

Technically, she kinda is. (Find 079's document in the map for context)

Dude 079 should have been glados

HORI SHET THE MEMORIES

@Anachronistic ALLOS Well, glad you enjoyed it. ;)

Wow, that is pretty impressive! If I'd attempted to do that, I'm pretty sure I'd have gone a bit batty somewhere along the line. I'm impressed with how consistent you were on the relative elevation of several of the rooms as well, like how the second story of the office past 096's chamber is technically on a higher floor. And how you put both versions of the Maintenance Tunnels on the same floor.

A+ for effort. I think the only time I've done anything like that was sketching out the layout of my old map series "re:Escape from Aperture" on a whim, and I didn't even complete that. Cheated in a few parts to connect locations better.

@Anachronistic ALLOS Ok, here's another link, and I used imgur this time:

@Anachronistic ALLOS Oh, whoops. Looks like using Google Drive is an UNACCEPTABLE CONDITION! UNACCEPTABLE!

Let me try again.

Link was removed, guy.
Presumably you linked a bad site.
Accepted sites are imgur, Twitter, Discord embeds, or deviantART.

@Anachronistic ALLOS Alright, here it is, and also for anyone else who's curious: {LINK REMOVED}https://drive.google.com/file/d/1OokZ5Atvm02xCBD4e0Koqi_YKP0WTcRV/view?usp=sharing

P.S.: Keep in mind it's not 100% accurate, and I color-coded all the doors and stuff since I think it looks better.

Mm.

May I see it?

Thought I point this out: A while ago, back in June, I made an Ocarina of Time-styled map with Paint.NET of the entire facility, even combining all three sectors into one singular massive map.
Including the secret, seemingly non-existent, map/sector

cave johnson here, we currently started working with the SCP foundation, we only started working with them because we thought they have advanced technology. Turns out they just work with some weird looking creatures, or as they mention as SCPs. Maybe they will help, i don't know. Only one way to find out.

And by neutral faction, I meant neutral to the foundation

The GOC is the Global Occult Coalition (I think) which is essentially a Neutral faction from the UN, if I am correct.

GOC?
I don't know what that is.

black mesa GOC when

now we need a half life version

ai nodes!11!

very awesome
