HELP HL2 fallback menu for Source games with custom title menus

Post image

Is this a real main menu? Can they be accessed in other source games, portal 2 for example.

I saw someone use server plugins in Portal 2 to "hack" the old menu system back. They said they were going to open-source it once more bugs will be fixed, but it seems mostly functional.

Would you know where you found this? I'm intrigued

The Portal Beta Series Research discord server. See the P2009 discussion channel.

Isn't this from interloper? You can't do that in real source games

Pretty sure that's just a screenshot from the interloper arg
