On October 22nd, 2008 a port of Portal was released onto the Xbox Live Arcade under the title: "Portal: Still Alive". Outside of being a simple port of the game, it included 14 new bonus maps which were based on Portal: The Flash Version Mappack made by Hen Mazolski. After 9 years, you can now play these levels on PC! The maps have been revamped a small ammount, with generally improved and shaprer lighting across the chambers. As well as this, our mod includes a mockup of the cut ending of the bonus chambers, was the same as the ending of The Flash Version Mappack, except with GLaDOS removed and other minor changes. It also includes the "GLaDOS Voice Map", a level made in 2009 by Hen Mazolski as a proof-of-concept for a GLaDOS voice actor he had acquired late in the development of The Flash Version Mappack, but did not put to use in the mappack.
Features List:
- The 14 “Still Alive” Chambers playable on PC with improved lighting.
- The Original Flash Version Mappack by Hen Mazolski.
- “GLaDOS Voice Map” by Hen Mazolski.
- Cut "Death Cube” texture used in Chambers 3, 4, 6, and 12.
- Mockup of the cut escape ending of the Still Alive bonus chambers.
- “Challenge” versions of the 14 chambers, with the original time, footstep, and portal amount values.

This will be the first of several projects by our small 6 man team, headed by Tyler McVicker, of the YouTube channel ValveNewsNetwork. He created this project after finding the Still Alive VMFs in the Portal leaks.
The mod should be played in conjunction with watching his video, "History of Portal: Still Alive":
This little project was very fun, and we're glad to have completed it so quickly. More projects coming when they are done!

Is there a way to use the Portal 2 skin packs/enhancement packs with this? I'm new to source mods.
Nevermind, you can load them by adding "game+mod portal/custom/*" to the gameinfo file. The closer it is the the top of the list the higher it's priority. It's worth noting that some of the replacement models look really weird with this addon.
does this work on mac?

Do You Need The Full Game?
Yeah alright, but how do I install it?
Extract the archive and read the text document included inside
getting an error saying "ai disabled" on the flash version maps.
Well it shouldn't matter, I don't think there is any AI in the Flash Version Mappack maps.
Well there are some gun turrets, but aside from that there are some vital things that never trigger since GLaDOS doesn't begin speaking in some rooms.
Well GLaDOS doesn't speak at all in TFV Mappack.
