Hi again..

I´ve seen for some days a portal camera in [stk]compound and wanted to add one in my new Map.
But something goes wrong...
on modsonline is no Sof2 tutorial for Portal camera--but in Q3A and the same method dosnt work for sof2.

These are the steps i´ve made:

1. Mappin a screen and add on one surface Tools/Portal

2. add a misc_portal_surface and placed it 16 units from the Portal like to make a mirror.

3. add a misc_portal_camera

4. connect the misc_portal_camera with the misc_portal_surface

5. add a target_position and connect with misc_portal_camera

Nothing will work.

Hope one of you can Help me....

THX alot

Okay, i have found the error after reading lots of Mapping Pages.

The Secret is the Tools/Portal texture, its MUST be the Mirror Texture !!! and a little Shader as follow:

//Shader:

textures/portal/portal_tex
// portal_tex is a fictive texture and you get in Radiant a "no Shader" error, but is okay.

{
qer_editorimage textures/portal/a_portal
surfaceparm playerclip
surfaceparm nolightmap
portal
{
map textures/portal/a_portal
blendFunc GL_ONE GL_ONE_MINUS_SRC_ALPHA
depthWrite
alphaGen portal 2048
}
}

The Texture a_portal you can get it from my Page: www.ccs-arena.de/mapping/a_portal.jpg

put the texture in your base/textures/portal folder
put the shader in your base/shaders folder

..
I will add a complete Portal Camera Tutorial in some Hrs here in Modsonline...look out for it..

greets
