You are told you are going to be testing a new set of tests for Aperature Science and procede into the door infront of you. You go through a couple of test chambers that use world portals. then proceding to the next test chamber, you are told that the flux capacitor that is running the world portal in this chamber is malfunctining and to be carefull... and as you turn on the world portal, the flux capacitor breaks down and messes up the time stream, and as you enter the world portal you continue onward into the Aperature Steamworks.[/b]

oh dear there's already another thread on this. as far as i know you can change the name of the thread.
That portal gun grip seems very unergonomic and silly.

Yeah, that concept is merely an artistic creation, if you want to make an actual model based off of it you need to make it look practical.
And the "banner" (for lack of a better term) is way to long. It shouldn't stretch the page at all.

That's not too unpractical, a handle curved like in the model isn't even practical or as said before, erognomic, in any way.
Didn't really deserve a megathread yet tbh.
Lookin' good, apart from the handle and the stock.
But you could have posted the thread when there was a little more... progress.
I came here thinking it was a mod about father Grigori.
So, are you going to make a new thread once you complete another drawing?
Do you need any voice actors? I'd be happy to try and help with that.

Yeah, that first portal gun with the stock was actually just a rough thing I made out of primitives to show what parts of the concept wouldn't work properly in 3D, and actually isn't even a WIP, for some reason he's putting it up as one
Also the concept for it was made by someone on deviantart completely unrelated to the mod and provided by the OP V:v:V

Yeah, he said it was on DeviantArt, right?
I think this mod's start is rather odd actually, he requested a Steampunk Portal Gun in the Gmod Models/Skins section, One Free man made it, and then he declared it being used in a mod.
And One Free Man, will you be texturing it?
[QUOTE=CakeMaster7;31015590]

Most likely
But being perfectly honest I may just see where the mod's going before spending the time on it
Steampunk Portal? How would that even work ?
A steampunk Artificial Intelligence would be interesting.
Did you delete it from moddb? It's not there anymore.
I'm sorry, but... the "Aperture Science Steampunk Center"? :suicide:
[QUOTE=razorbeamz;31016551]Did you delete it from moddb? It's not there anymore.[/QUOTE]
I think he just corrected the spelling mistake in the mod's title on Modb from "Annabella" to "annabelle" :v:
Cores will look awesome. Random puffs of steam coming out of their sides.
[QUOTE=Tentacle;31016572]I'm sorry, but... the "Aperture Science Steampunk Center"? :suicide:[/QUOTE]
Yeah, in my opinion it should never say it's Steampunk, because Steampunk is just a style that it is.
The term Steampunk implies that they don't see Steampunk as the norm.
Changed the name to "Aperature Science Steam Center" thanks for the tip CakeMaster7, and I renamed it this because in the mod Aperature Science will be founders of steam-powered products, and I remade the thread because I couldn't rename the old thread, and I will change the banner size
Why not make up a new company entirely? I don't like Aperture Science being involved.

Well part of the idea of Steampunk is like alternate history and stuff, so maybe it could be something along those lines?
And It would explain why they have the portal gun in the first place too, without old aperature, ther would be no portal gun

How about Aperture Steamworks? :buddy:
That's even better tepholman! Ill write your name down and you can get credit for the name :)
So, um, how that steam-powered portalgun work?
This is just like steam-powered internet.

Who said it was steam powered? The Portal Gun (apparently) is entirely "mechanical" (for lack of a better term) in that it does't require electricity.
That means they wouldn't have to use steam to power it.
Well also the "Ray Gun" is a common steampunk weapon and I'm pretty sure it is not run on steam
