The INFAMOUS question...Which is the RIGHT shader to use for portals?

You know, for Q3 it's portal_sfx. There are 5 portal shaders for JO in the system set, but I don't wanna bother compiling and checking them all...so which one works? The "Portal" one doesn't, right now I'm trying AREAPORTAL...

FRNDS_Pommy:

Depends on what you are trying to achieve, the AREA PORTAL texture is used for blocking doorways. The mirror portal texture for creating Mirrors (when used in conjunction with the MISC_PORTAL Entity). The normal portal textures when used with the MISC_PORTAL entity and MISC_CAMERA entity can create view screens. (Still trying to get that to work!!!)

Hope this helps!

That's EXACTLY what I'm trying to do. Problem is, it doesn't work.
