I have read and followed the tutorial from RGN Wiki on outdoor portal creation but its left some questions unanswered. When creating the top portal brush that has the exterior portal texture and the interior portal no draw texture, does this piece sit on top of the caulked walls or go inside the boxed areas? Does the portals share walls or does each cell need its own wall? Can geometry be half way inside a portal and half in another or in the world or does that cause an error?

When you are portaling, imagine that the 'portal no-draw texture' doesn't exist. Line up the portal textures exactly. As to whether you can share walls, generally yes. Structural walls count as portal. Open mp_backlot from the tools and filter out (press F) everything but the portals. That will help you understand how to make it work. You can then play with the filters to see how they connected to different things, and how the textures need to be lined up. gl
