Rename it to THE APERTURE SWEP, nobody can find this by original name "The aperture", that's why i did this rename in my localization. Everybody expect weapons and entities when see "SWEP" in the title, even if they don't know what does it means

out of curiosity i unpacked this addon and, for a personal use case, made PaintTexture() calls stack in a queue that gets executed with a 0.01 second delay between each call, that seems to slightly improve performance when you're dumping tons of gels however that's not the main culprit:

somewhere around line 219 you'll find:

canpaintChunk = CheckForPossiblePlacement(uvX, uvY, chunkPos, paintPos, offset, normal)

that line is the ABSOLUTE LAG INCARNATE (looks like util.TraceLine being called way too often starts lagging the game); as a bandaid fix i've opted to just replace it with

canpaintChunk = 1

and while that comes with its quirks on small surfaces, imo it works Fine for casual use until the addon creator can find a permanent fix (if they still work on this) and *mostly* gets rid of the lag

I guess we are never seeing the fix for lagging gels. Kinda sucks but it's still an great addon at the very least.
BigDMcGee 31 Oct, 2024 @ 1:25pm

BigDMcGee 29 Oct, 2024 @ 2:24pm

Nova 6 Mar, 2024 @ 12:22pm 
now that turrets have been added to the game, you need to fix the bug where the portal 1 turret gets replaced by this addons turrets

its not best portal gun addon anymore
Gog-Killer 11 Nov, 2023 @ 2:37pm 
about the gel lag problem, just see the description. even though the paint gun was fixed, it now lags when gel hits a surface.

thanks for asking!
NotAlexYT (F2P) 20 Oct, 2023 @ 3:21pm 
Im having the same problem
Ziutek 16 Oct, 2023 @ 8:25am 
why its so laggy when i shoot gel
Flint 11 Oct, 2023 @ 6:56am 
Im getting an lua error that looks like this:
[Aperture Continued [Fixed Paint Gun]] lua/aperture/main.lua:85: bad argument #1 to 'ManipulateBoneScale' (number expected, got nil)
1. ManipulateBoneScale - [C]:-1
2. JumperBootsResizeLegs - lua/aperture/main.lua:85
3. CreateBoots - lua/entities/item_jumper_boots.lua:71
4. SetPlayer - lua/entities/item_jumper_boots.lua:77
5. unknown - lua/entities/item_jumper_boots.lua:48
is there a way to fix it? I dont know if downloading a bone editor / manipulator mod would really work. I may try fixing it before i actually look at advice.
Erik The Grate 2 Oct, 2023 @ 8:48pm 
the objects only spawn through the tool gun and not when you load any portal 2 maps. it would make me happy if this was fixed but i can live without it.:steamthumbsup:
DisplacedDev 2 Oct, 2023 @ 2:05pm 
an actual bug report i have is that when you get one of the crushers out the 'hologram' showing you what it would look like before you place it will stay forever no matter what you do
DisplacedDev 2 Oct, 2023 @ 2:01pm 
so the pneumatic tubes worked perfectly the first time i tried them and i made a big system and it all worked but when i reloaded the game and tried again they had the bug in the description. i really hope you find a fix for this please becuase i absolutely love the tubes

Can someone find Aperture Lib?
MonoConeMatic 9 Sep, 2023 @ 3:09pm 
how do i connect things together with wiremod
Shadowlynx42 3 Sep, 2023 @ 1:09am 
For some reason when I shoot the Portal gun/Paint Gun the game lags so badly it becomes unplayable and the Gel Dropper doesn't work it creates Lua errors.
Yedahs 4 Aug, 2023 @ 11:13am 
so many thingssssssssssssss
♫MusicMen225♫ 14 Jun, 2023 @ 6:00am 
The addon actually works, the tools are there in their proper section. I'm dumb, thinking they didn't work. All the entities in the entities tab are all the ones you will only ever really need to go with rest of them that you spawn with tools.
CharybdisSlashCrow 1 May, 2023 @ 5:12pm 
Okay, so this mod is incompatible with a few VJ Base addons (Namely common L4D2 Zombies and the Brutes from that one Halo mod) and Zippy's Realistic Blood mods whenever they're used together with this addon. It says there's a NULL entity. I wish this could be fixed at some point.
minty 8 Mar, 2023 @ 2:30pm 
PLEASE use this more stable portal gun because the current one is kinda buggy plus its kinda low on features and the test chamber building blocks are useless and this Improved portal gun mod will allow portals on props: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1800764828
♫MusicMen225♫ 13 Feb, 2023 @ 6:20pm 
Flamant, try reading FAQ in addon description. It's possible that you have conflict with another addon.
Flamant 12 Feb, 2023 @ 9:24pm 
I get nothing but errors and missing textures and yes I have the required mods and both portal games.
The Horseless Headless Horsemann 25 Dec, 2022 @ 8:19pm 
oh my god, from first look, this sounds amazing, i've been looking for good portal content for this game for so long

PAINT GUN STILL DOSE NOT WORK
cardinal 21 Dec, 2022 @ 3:17pm 
the paint gun is incredibly laggy, shooting it even for a second causes the game to freeze for a couple seconds, it even crashed my entire computer and I had to restart it.
True... 11 Dec, 2022 @ 8:42pm 
Super happy to see the gel cannon working properly again

Only problem is that it lags hella bad when shooting gel, but eh, it works
minty 19 Nov, 2022 @ 4:19pm 
Please use a different portal gun addon like this https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1800764828
Crabulous 16 Nov, 2022 @ 6:48pm 
Its not only old PC's. There is no current fix for it currently, if you go back a few pages the creator of this addon says it. It is likely possible to, but for now its just broken. Do not use the paint gun or gel dropper.
Crabulous 13 Nov, 2022 @ 8:12am 
The gel has a massive issue, which might only affect older PC's, but the paint gun is incredibly laggy, and holding it down for a second lags the game for seconds
Commander-LVJ 5 Nov, 2022 @ 5:30pm 
The game crashes every time I try to place a blue and yellow portal.
