Would it be possible to port the original Portal 1 source code to a HL2 Deathmatch mod (source 2013)?

Very possible and easy however probably not very legal as the only available portal code comes from a leak

I remember seeing ken playing with portal leak code in the 07 and ASW engines. But yeah. I don't know how much Valve cares about people using portal code in mods.

They should really just let us have it. But considering how long it took for them to legalize the usage and modification of leaked beta content, it probably won't happen for quite a while.

I would definitely love to see a modified HL2DM that incorporates portals and stuff. Just think of the crazy ass levels we could make.
