If you've used Hammer then you've used the Portal tool (I'm assuming at least). I imagine that only special thing would be the textures in that if you create one that you want to be able to place a portal on that's probably just a line in the texture file. Other than that, it's more than likely just like playing with any other mod in Hammer.


Actually, you have to create nodraw brushes that are something like func_noportal_volume, and these brushes prohibit portals from being placed inside them.  Kind of annoying to have all these extra brushes against all your metal surfaces, but I imagine you could save that part for when the map is finished, and just playtest the map without them.
