It’s been a long time. How have you been? I’ve been really busy being dead. You know... after you murdered me?

Description

This package has been created to preserve the Portal 2 Sixense MotionPack DLC as it has been deprecated for a very long time since the discontinuation of the Razer Hydra product and support for the Sixense DLC.

I want to play the campaign with this. Can I just modify the contents of my Portal 2 installation to do this? (putting files in normal portal 2, changing gameinfo) Why can't I just do that?

the latest version of portal 2 breaks the sixense dlc in a way that pretty much makes it impossible to play the dlc which is that you have no ability to move your player whatsoever. the only way to solve this is by downgrading to an older version of the portal 2 game which i completely simplified the process by making this package. trying to override the files of the main game will cause a lot of issues to happen

To fix that, you need to opt into the previous_release beta.

as much as that is a solution, it's an inconvenient solution if you'd prefer to have the latest version of the game installed

To fix crashes, you need to create a symlink to your Workshop
In Windows, you do this like:
Open Command Shell with admin rights and paste there:
mklink /D "[Your Steam location]\steamapps\common\Portal 2 Sixense MotionPack\portal2_sixense\maps\workshop" "[Your Steam location]\steamapps\common\Portal 2\portal2\maps\workshop"
If your Steam Library is on disk C, then it will look like:
mklink /D "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Portal 2 Sixense MotionPack\portal2_sixense\maps\workshop" "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Portal 2\portal2\maps\workshop"

Would this still work with Co-op?

co-op will only work with people who have the sixense dlc

ShygalCoco do you have a build without the extra content (A Little Higher and Designed for Danger)?
I'm looking for an unmodified original.

you can actually quickly do that by deleting the "portal2_mappacks" folder and renaming "extras_old.txt" in "portal2_sixense\scripts" to "extras.txt"

Thanks! I was also looking for a way to get the "clean" files only. I don't want any user-made levels in this bundle.

for whoever wonders about what happened to the steamvr patch, it has been removed due to just not working well or being a pain to use

you must play using the razer hydra or someone has to be willing to make a program or driver that allows you to play without the razer hydra. unfortunately i don't know anyone who's willing to do that and i have no ability to make a program or driver myself

I just ordered a razer hydra and it should arrive in about a week, is there anything I should know before installing this mod? thanks

not really, everything should be available and explained to you in the zip file
