Source Portal Files

Game assets from Portal are sourced from the original game's files, which must be supplied separately. Copy the entire Portal folder to this directory (vpk/).

If you are not using Docker, you can use a symbolic link.

ln -s <SteamLibrary>/steamapps/common/Portal vpk/Portal

At a minimum, the following directory structure is required. However, it is easier and less error prone to just copy everything.

vpk/
└── Portal/
    ├── hl2/
    │   ├── media/
    │   │   └── valve.bik
    │   ├── resource/
    │   ├── hl2_misc_000.vpk
    │   ├── hl2_misc_001.vpk
    │   ├── hl2_misc_002.vpk
    │   ├── hl2_misc_003.vpk

Add Multiple Audio Languages

The original game supports English, French, German, Russian, and Spanish audio. This project only uses English audio by default. If you want audio languages other than English, follow the steps below for each desired additional language.

  1. Change the current language for Portal in Steam to the desired language using the game properties menu. The game will update.
  2. Open <SteamLibrary>/steamapps/common/Portal/portal and find the portal_sound_vo_*.vpk files corresponding to the new language.
  3. Copy the language audio VPKs to vpk/. These files must be copied because Steam only keeps the files of one language at a time.

When building, set the AUDIO_LANGUAGES variable appropriately. See Building the Game.
