who remembers some of the Portal 2 concept art pictures from the 2nd ARG showing giant-sized chickens in a simulated farm environemtn? Their idea was to come up with more food for people...well that got out of hand. My point is that maybe...just maybe...those farm experiments are still functional and that's where Glados sent Chell. Which would be fucking crazy. Kind of like an uber-holodeck designed for underground agriculture.

This is getting extremely annoying now, I load up steam and realise that half my Portal 2 folder has decided to go missing.

4Gb of Portal 2 has decided that I really hates my hard-drive and has dissipated into thin air. I suspect its a virus or something, considering that this has now happened twice in the last month.

Am I the only one with this problem (I very highly suspect so)?

Sounds like your hard drive has a bad sector. You can repair bad sectors with Spinrite, but often its a sign of a dying hard drive. You might want to run CHKDSK to see.

Should work perfectly. NCF files never contain any actual game content as far as I know. They're used by Steam for file referencing and shit I think; something along those lines I guess.

Also, you need to make sure you have latest version of VTFedit if you want to open any textures from the game since it uses the new vtf version 7.5.


Hey guys, I am trying to get the newest version of VTF Edit but the Nem's Tools website seems to be down suddenly. I am also having trouble finding VTF Edit anywhere else that is the latest version (VTFEdit 1.3.2 apparently) so does anyone have any ideas or hints? Thanks!!

It was a bot btw. I notified ad_hominem (joe) about it as it posted three necro response messages within the space of 2 minutes lol. The bots are getting surprisingly good...
