You know, I found on Youtube a video of a guy finishing the game in 18 mins o_O. That was really amazing.

I've replayed Portal dozens of times, it was an amazing game. Challenging, humorous, and loads of fun. I can't wait till Portal 2 comes out.

I'd recomend buying the Orange box instead of just downloading Portal. The Orange box has some amazing games. Most of the are Half Life, yes, but there's also Team Fortress 2 and Portal. If anyone is stuck on the last boss, I could help you a bit. I beat the game in maybe 1 1/2 or 2 hours, and then beat the harder versions of certain levels. I want to say this, though: The harder version of the Companion Cube level is insane. You have to carry around a sphere instead, which makes using it as a platform extraordinarily difficult. usually when I had to reflect things i was just hitting them and hoping for the best X3 The final part of th game, Glados (Or whatever she's called) is pretty nifty.

And yes, the song at the end is uber. If anyone finds a place to DL it for free, pls let me know :D

Euthanizing the Weighted Companion Cube was probably one of the hardest things I've ever done in a video game.

Seriously, took me like 30 minutes to just decide and let it go. :(

No matter how hard I think about it, I'm still baffled as to why people feel so attached to the Weighted Companion Cube...The only reason I didn't throw it away when using he sphere was to hear the funny comments XD

There are 2 glitches in that game that would allow you to finish that level in 1 minute, no matter if it's the advanced chamber or not :p.

I found that level annoying, but not too much harder than the original chamber ;O.

A very difficult advanced chamber for me was the turret level, where all of the turrets are in cages so that you can't knock them over ;(.

But the hardest is the last one, you'll know why if you ever see it ;(.

    Hmm, how do I change my signature?
  • tom_mai78101 tom_mai78101:
    Signatures can be edit in your account profile. As for the old stuffs, I'm thinking it's because Blizzard is now under Microsoft, and because of Microsoft Xbox going the way it is, it's dreadful.

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
