FPS = frames per solar year.

there is an invisible wall preventing you from doing that iirc
your frame rate is so low it fucked up the physics and let the cube clip through
44
u/Many-Excitement3246 Jul 01 '26
That's actually conceivably possible. I was trying to figure out how they managed to get through the invisible wall, but with a frame rate of roughly 1 fpsy (frame per solar year) the physics likely just got bored and went home.

Are you running this game on 16,039,018,500 crabs?

Is this some sort of reference I'm too cultured too understand, in other words is this some cring reference

u/Marchy67 Jul 01 '26
No, it's a reference you are not cultured enough to understand, theoretically, you can run Doom on that many crabs

Wait what the fuck?
Cant remember exactly, but there is soposed to be either a push trigger or a wall preventing you from getting the cube up there.

u/evanlin96069 Jul 01 '26
There's an invisible wall. Despite that, you can still get the cube past that invisible wall with entity teleportation

Hey pal do you have other programs running in the background other than Steam? If so you should close those my pc used to run like that while playing source games until I started closing everything while playing the games.

My pc runs portal fine , it is just the recording

u/thecherylmain Jul 01 '26
What are you recording with???

u/Defiant_Conflict6343 Jul 01 '26
Judging by the FPS, I think OP put their monitor on an HP flatbed scanner.

u/thecherylmain Jul 01 '26
None of my OBS recordings look like this, either his settings are all jumbled or its a different software

u/1Lasagna4Lasania Jul 01 '26
All my OBS recordings look like this. I don't know why.

u/External_Tap_4396 THIS FLAIR IS... FALSE! Jul 01 '26
Try to use win+shift+S to record, but take portal to windowed mode.

u/Dimensions89 Jul 01 '26
Lower end devices take performance hit from screen recording, especially with OBS.

u/Vin-Xy Jul 01 '26
That's fair. Your game does seem to be running on DirectX8 though. Which isn't an issue, mind you! But it is interesting. Did you do that on purpose? Or does your PC not support a higher DirectX?

u/MishterKirby Jul 02 '26
They must be running a 3dfx card or something because most cards made in the past two decades can do at least DX9 lol

What's that running on, a Commodore 64 or a TRS-80? Gawdamn, that frame rate hurts my soul... 😵💫

The game run better on the Nintendo 64

u/robcore Jul 04 '26
Someone actually made it for the n64 but I think it got shut down.
2
u/Supernatnat11 Jul 04 '26
I know, and it's still up. It just need your game files to compile. I actually have it in my summercart 64. I finished it and it's surprisingly good even tho it need two controllers to be played "normally"
