Check out the free Portal 2 VR mod here;

VR MOD video about installing https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OnFCTqKJP80&t=1s
The video misses telling you to move the three sub folders from the extracted Portal2VR file into the regular Poral 2 folder. Or at least I had to do that to get it to work.
Oddities at present, no visible hands until you get the portal gun, but you can still pick things up.Some of my levels with paint gun not quite right...
Multiplayer not functioning yet but they are working on it.

Note: if you get 'test chamber is unavailable,' you can either:
1:
* Load up the chamber
* Open the console
* Browse local files
* Go to ./portal2/maps/workshop
* Delete the folder that the console says contains an invalid BSP
or 2:
* Browse local files
* Go to ./portal2/maps/
* Delete ./workshop (All of your chambers will be redownloaded)

links to some videos and downloads?
JAZ  [ophavsmand] 3. apr. 2017 kl. 15:05 
Thanks! Since you have Portal 2, Portal 2 Authoring Tools should be under Library/Tools. Each version of Hammer is specific to the game it came with. Warning it takes a lot of time and learning to make maps in it. Plus Valve doesn't really bother to fix it anymore and there are problems publishing the maps. You need to download fixes, programs for making custom textures etc. for it. There are lots of Tutorials on Youtube if you really want to get into it.

Just tap E quickly twice, you drop it but catch it again immediately.
fantasychica37 7. okt. 2016 kl. 15:45 
How can I jump and then use the screwdriver to fix the broken light bridge if I can't reach the screwdriver to pick it up when in the air and if I'm holding the screwdriver and then press E, I drop it?

Your ship (The Tardis) runs into the two cores briefly in space but must land to pick him up later. Wheatley is actually speaking over the radio at the side of the room. Press the red button sticking out of the console to land. You also need the sonic screwdriver sitting next to the radio. Then you use the buttons to activate tractor beams to pull him down from space. If you are not a Doctor Who fan, or even if you are, the video walkthrough above may help.

Wheatley disappears before he asks me to pick him up and I can't find him!!

"Wheatley & Gallifrey Falls No More". The "Final" battle between Wheatley (with the Doctor) and the Caretaker (leading the Daleks) takes place on the Doctor's home planet of Gallifrey!
Based on the Doctor Who 50th Anniversary Special "The Day of the Doctor".
Hint - When Wheatley says let go, let go of him or die!
Time travel between past Gallifrey and the end of the Time War. Includes Antigravity swimming pools and the making of a Tardis!

This is a new map, published August 15, 2015. Due to an error, I am unable to publish new Hammer maps (I get the below error message). I was able to fool it and publish over an old test map and change it's name.

Getting error message "Failed to write File mymaps/Gallifrey.bsp to Steam Cloud! Please Verify the File name and try again." Anyone encounter this and know how to fix it? I verified the integrity of Portal 2 and Hammer, it didn't help.

Hi Sgt Beachboard, I see what is confusing you. The "screen" is actually your view out into space. Your ship (The Tardis) runs into the two cores briefly. Wheatley is actually speaking over the radio at the side of the room. Press the red button sticking out of the console to land. You also need the sonic screwdriver sitting next to the radio. If you are not a Doctor Who fan, or even if you are, the video walkthrough above may help. Also on youtube at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i87F4clNgm0

the cores arent apearingon the screen and wheatley just keeps talking, could you please fix or something?
JAZ  [ophavsmand] 12. juni 2015 kl. 15:50 
Sorry I wasn't online a few days - The Sonic Screwdriver turns on every time you pick it up, and turns off after 3 seconds.
timidphossu 9. juni 2015 kl. 10:07 
How do you use the sonic screwdriver
The diesel robot 10. feb. 2015 kl. 17:52 
The Moonbase falling apart... THAT explains why the turrets look like they're defective. THEY must be falling apart too.

thank u
JAZ  [ophavsmand] 8. feb. 2015 kl. 12:38 
ethan - Sorry I wasn't online for a few days. You make the entity called an npc personality core in Hammer. There are also some notes in the comments of another of my maps, on how to make him "talk". See Wheatley Breaks the Tardis,

hey question how do u use whealtey in your chamber cause i really want to put him in mine
JAZ  [ophavsmand] 19. jan. 2015 kl. 15:08 
The Moonbase is supposed to be abandoned and falling apart, with the lightbridges malfunctioning. Read further if need help with the solution. - When the lightbridge breaks it also breaks open the way out. You should see two targets, where you need to place portals to jump and fly through the opening in the glass. One target is up high by the light and tractor beams, the other you can see looking down from there.. See the walkthrough video if that didn't help.
The diesel robot 17. jan. 2015 kl. 17:29 
How come the light bridge connected to the cube button malfunctions after not long?
JAZ  [ophavsmand] 17. nov. 2014 kl. 19:10 
Thanks for letting me know, I will think on that. Also I forgot to say Thanks for the compliment on the radio easter egg.
sunsette 17. nov. 2014 kl. 4:44 
Bit of an issue with the time vortex linked portal door- I don't know if you can fix this- you can shoot portals in it, and maybe grab wheatley for a short period of time.
JAZ  [ophavsmand] 16. nov. 2014 kl. 19:28 
If it is getting to the other side of the glass towards the Earth/tractor beams: you need to portal jump so that you go up the vent with the smoke, you will see it bends and extends through the glass. You can place a portal where the light hits below it, then jump down into a portal from either of the highest platforms.
sunsette 16. nov. 2014 kl. 17:41 
I found the radio easter egg- best easter egg ever- but I'm having trouble advancing past the moon part.
JAZ  [ophavsmand] 16. nov. 2014 kl. 16:27 
AAAH! You killed your companion! LOL. Sorry about that. The Sonic Screwdriver has a fizzler that activates during the sonic sound - you can use it to kill turrets by touching them. But you need your companion, so don't use it on her or the map will end. But hint - your companion just stays there for this map. I did it to be consistent with the storyline in the other maps. Hope you are enjoying the Doctor Who theme. If you would like, Play Part 2, just published (see below).
sunsette 16. nov. 2014 kl. 12:47 
What the heck, I used the sonic on the companion cube and the chamber ended

Updated my first Doctor Who "Inside the Tardis"map to become Part of a collection of maps with a storyline.
In timeline order it would be
*Wheatley’s Halloween Adventure (A strange Halloween non-Doctor Who Map where Wheatley is “attacked” by the Mad Caretaker.) Made earlier, it is the first encounter with Wheatley’s Nemesis, the Caretaker.

oh, thanks JAZ, video wouldn't load so I couldn't check. The idea is very good- I hope the whole level will be too!
JAZ  [ophavsmand] 7. nov. 2014 kl. 14:54 
If I understand your question - When Wheatley says Pick Me Up (voice on the radio), Wheatley means retrieve him from space. You can't grab him, you must use the buttons on the Moonbase to tractor him down from space. It is half way through the map before you actually get to him and carry him with you. See the video, if that didn't answer your question.
gremlin 7. nov. 2014 kl. 13:57 
This is going to sound stupid... but at the very start how do you pick up Wheatly!???

To get to the other side of the glass section: you need to fly up the vent with the smoke, you will see it bends and extends through the glass. You can place a portal where the light hits below it, then jump down into a portal from either of the highest platforms.
JAZ  [ophavsmand] 2. nov. 2014 kl. 13:48 
Thanks for the Advice. I made the Tardis console in Hammer, cut the shapes and used game objects. I am not sure how to share it, but Yes you can use it and give me credit. I made it for the Map "Wheatley Breaks The Tardis" and then re-used it in this one.

I had a lot of problems with the Tardis doors, and had to settle for this way. I had an issue with func_door deleting the linked_portal_door when used together. Also the custom Tardis door texture would disappear when I tried putting it on the func_door.

Can you take a screenshot of the texture that is not aligned?
Doctor_GLaDOS 2. nov. 2014 kl. 9:16 
Yes custom sounds did work, sonic and radio. However i did not finish your map, id get stuck in the moment when you find the radio but no idea where to go next.
Few advices:
1.Align textures
2.For the doors in the TARDIS use func_door AND linked_portal_door. Or just make doors texture and when tardis lands trigger linked portal door.
3.Go to www.thinkingwithportals.com and ask questions.
BTW how did you create Tardis console ? It is incredible !
Can i use it in my maps with adding you as a co-creator (of course) ?
JAZ  [ophavsmand] 2. nov. 2014 kl. 5:45 
Thanks, One thing you can help with right away. I put a couple custom sounds in this map. Did the Sonic Screwdriver make it's sonic sound when you pick it up? Did you find the hidden radio, and did it play when you picked it up? Finally did a brief bit of the Doctor Who Theme play at the end?
Doctor_GLaDOS 2. nov. 2014 kl. 4:43 
I really like your idea and I would love to help you somehow
JAZ  [ophavsmand] 1. nov. 2014 kl. 21:07
