CanNOT get bonus map packs to work

[marchettaanthony]

Hey guys, this technically belongs in the Portal 1 forums and it's there too, but they're way less active.

I just can't get my map packs to work-the rexaura pack by mevious and the Portal Flash Game map pack. I just can't get them to work. According to the readme it says I need to own Half-Life 2, but I've heard from other places that this isn't strictly necessary, though it will have some effects on the game. Whatever. I just want to load the maps.

I've put them all in the portal maps folder in steamapps, and I can even find the folders for the maps in the bonus maps menu. Just not the maps themselves.

They have different installation instructions. I don't know why TFV Map Pack isn't working for you (maybe you need to start the first map from the console?), but Rexaura is installed differently.

Originalmente publicado por readme:

Installation:
1. Extract the file and move the rexaura folder into your sourcemods folder (e.g., C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\sourcemods).
2. Restart Steam if it was running.
3. Open your Steam games library and select Rexaura.

You shouldn't need Half-Life 2 to play Rexaura, I don't know about TFV Map Pack though.

Thanks! I'll try it out and give an update. :-)

So, my update: No change. Are you saying that Rexaura should be a separate game in my library?

Portal says the games need to be in bmz format. Mine are in bsp, and I have no clue how to change that.
