Oh, just you wait.

Same problem. Just tested it. The game starts but it seems to ignore the steamclient.dll in the Portal/bin completly.
I guess SKIDROWs crack method bypasses that dll completely and uses the one from the main directory.

Yeah, tried it too, still crashes. So I guess we must wait for a fix or a proper.

Well done Skidrow! Rolling Eyes

Coop with skidrow works, but it crashes for the host. Happened both for me and my 2 friends.


How? Just connect to IP in console?

How....I can't even access coop multiplayer.
Hope your not referring to the old stupid method of running a Steam dummy account. Already created 3 of them for the last few games.
Hope a PROPER fix and maybe a Multi crack will show up. L4D2 was eventually cracked on multi so why not Portal.

Great, did not expect it to work but it works flawlessly with the Skidrow version!

No crashes to desktop, played for more than an hour.

Win 7 x64, 2GB RAM, Radeon 4850 (512MB). Everything on high, except MSAA just on 2x. Running VERY fluent with VSYNC on Smile

What I did to ensure that my legit steam account does not get banned:
+ Checked if steam is running
+ Checked if the steam service is running (run->services.msc) and set it to deactivated so that it does not start up even when called.
+ Renamed steam directory so if even some dll or exe manages to run, it is not capable to find the original steam directory
+ Blocked access to net of portal2.exe (windows firewall -> wf.msc, outgoing, create new rule)

Maybe all this crap is irrelevant. Whatever! Very Happy

BTW the leves were optimized to hell so that this game can run any good. This is not like crysis two where almost every polygon has multiple layer of shaders and textures. Just some of the stuff that catches your eye has higher resolution textures and multiple shaders.


Oh and the game is very good too!

Well, the first time it crashed, that firewall message by Windows popped up, so I guess it has something to do with Portal wanting to connect with the internet. Of course I didn't permit it.

I thought Valve said the extra copies of Portal 2 wasn't giftable? Either way, damn! Congrats Very Happy

Crashes even in admin mode with steamclient.dll copied to correct folder.

Win7 X64 Ultimate
GTX 560 TI

Gonna wait for some sort of fix.

Could this have something to do with the choice of firewall? I'm using Win7 firewall & MS Security Essentials as AV

Ps. I have blocked Portal2.exe in Firewall

try and go into the skidrow folder, copy all at once, and paste in the installation folder... That's what I did.. I tried doing it with the files first and then the bin folder; crashed, the other way, it all worked fine...?

Perhaps. I'm currently running an Nvidia beta driver.

@BLuNT318: I did that (I always do that) Smile


Anyway. I see people on other warez forums having problems, so something is definitely FUBAR.

I'm sure somebody will figure out a solution, one way or the other.

I allowed the exe but disconnected from the internet (unplugged) no crashes after that.

Can anyone else confirm? (probably a fluke)

I think I may have fixed my crash issues, by running portal2.exe in Win XP SP2 compatibility mode.

OS: Win7 Ultimate X64

Haven't tried this for more than 20 min. but that is still a success compared to the crashes I've been experiencing every 5 to 10 min.

Gonna get some sleep now. Smile

Ps. Maybe the problems went away due to me using the quicksave function (Didn't use that before running in compat mode).

I find this on another forum, seems to work!

"There are 2 -bin- folders inside Portal 2. Put the .dll files in the right one.

\Portal 2\bin - Wrong ONE - Game will crash

\Portal 2\portal2\bin - RIGHT ONE - Game works PERFECT"

No crashes here, however this is only game I've ever felt bad about pirating -- the voice acting basically sold it to me. Ended up uninstalling and buying it via Steam. The quality in this game is just too amazing to not support it.

I'm not saying everyone should go buy it, I just felt horrible not supporting Valve when they come out with stuff like this.

The game also seems to have made me come out of lurk status and make my first post on these boards Razz
