File Submission Guidelines

So you want to submit your map file, utility or your movie to us and are not sure what the procedure is? You've come to the right place. Below are the instructions for uploading information.

Map and File Upload Guidelines:

1. Only upload maps, models, tags or utilities that can be used with PC Verson of the Portal Game.
2. NO adult content, nudity or profanity.
3. Be sure the map file name has a unique name: As a general policy the we will not carry a map for download that has the same name as a previous version of the same map. There needs to be a version control system.
   
   
4. All Map files, Models, Tags and utilities MUST be submitted in a compression archive like ZIP, RAR, ARJ...etc. Raw map, model, or Tag files will be deleted without review. Use whatever archiving program you like to send us your map, however we WILL re-archive all content into ZIP format. Why? Because we like the ZIP format.
   
   
5. Include a readme.txt file in every archive. If you are too lazy to include a simple text files with your name and information then we will be too lazy to either post your file or if we do not give you credit for it. This is not rocket science.
   
   
6. If wish to upload a movie see the movie guidelines at the Machinima/Movies website
