Until 2008-02-02 11:00pm (GMT+11), the 1.1.5 installer was corrupted due to some upload problems. This is now fixed. Sorry for any inconvenience it may have caused you.
The file should go back online as soon as moddb's mirrors are up to date.
That's it, the new Portal: Prelude 1.1.5 complete installer is released!
Head up to the download page, and enjoy! (the complete changelog is included below)
Please uninstall all previous versions of the mod if you already installed it.
This new version is shipped with more than 115 bug fixes, improvements and additions (since 1.0.0). We know everything's still not perfect (voices, grammar, difficulty), but we believe we put enough work in this mod and thus, this version should be considered final (except if something really bad happens).
Also, there was so much changes to the game files that it's pretty much useless to release a cumulative patch. It would be nearly as big as the complete installer itself. Please note that there's nothing worth redownloading the whole mod again if you already downloaded it, as it's mostly graphical improvements, optimizations and minor bug fixes.

Thx for the german translation! :) I've been waiting for this since the 1.0 release. ;)
This sounds very interesting ! I'll give it a try...
Downloading now!... again :D
Corrupted file.. I'll dl again :/
FILE CONTAINS INVALID DATA
portal prelude is good, but man its so much harder than the original, you rly do have to think about some of them.
Not the way I remember it for most of them. Just inch perfect jumping, which was fun. In the 80s. :P
Congrats on 1.1.5 guys!
The file was fixed.
Thanks to the ModDB staff.
A nice list of fixes. Good work.
A really awesome mod that was well thought through, even though some of the chambers are just impossible. I was stuck at the first part with the four turrets for a long time...
Anywho, the only real issue with this is the voice acting, or lack thereof. When you use a computer, there's no emotion. This kinda' ruined the game for me in a couple of spots. Anyway, keep on going. This is looking great.
good mod
Mod is broken, do not play or you will end up using noclip for most of the maps, bad execution to a good storyline, I recommend Portal Stories: Mel over this mod. unplayable and i am a professional at portal maps.
the maps need to be better organized and not include hazards that are literally unbelievably hard to overcome. and the boss battle is unstoppable and includes weaponry Glados would not have at her disposal.
if anyone thinks this comment is harsh then please play my Aperture Vault test chambers on the steam workshop, i know hard and can create maps that are on a whole new level of difficulty...
