Just in case anyone wants to keep track chamber-by-chamber: Chamber 02: 3 cameras Chamber 03: 3 cameras Chamber 04: 2 cameras Chamber 05: 3 cameras Chamber 10: 1 camera Chamber 11: 1 camera Chamber 13: 3 cameras Chamber 15: 5 cameras Chamber 16: 5 cameras Chamber 17: 2 cameras Chamber 18: 2 cameras Chamber 19: 3 cameras Note that all 33 cameras must be destroyed in a continuous run. You cannot destroy some, then come back later and destroy the rest. However, if you miss a camera, you _can_ return to a recent save, and your progress will still be counted.
Finally got the achievement! If anyone wants some tips, you have to do this in one sitting, and each level you do, check the amount you got so far, and the amount in the video.
@@ImCertified yeah, I'm pretty sure it's happened before plenty of times, I've finished the run now though, only took half an hour so that wasn't too bad :)
@@alekosthecrow I think what we have is a classic case of a bugged achievement that technically still works, but absolutely does not work as intended. The urban legend that you HAVE to get all the cameras in one run is somewhat informed by the fact a lot of people's Steam clients (mine included) will show a tracker for the radio achievement, but not the security camera one. SOMETIMES when I knock down a new camera, it'll pop up grey as if there SHOULD be a counter on it, but my Steam simply does not reflect that the achievement is even a X/33. As a result, "do it all in one run" is a sledgehammer that can drive home all the little individual thumbtack edge cases of Camera Shy at once.
I can't believe how sneaky some of these cameras are. I was committed to trying to find them all without a guide for a long time and never actually did. I was convinced for a long time there must've been some tech to knock the ones off of unportalable surfaces.
Took me 5 playthroughs I finally got it. My advice is to make sure to count how many you got each chamber (and make sure you got all of the ones in each chamber), don't load a save, and start from the beginning and go all the way until chamber 19 (no skipping).
@@HeroWarsSeymour dang, idk what to say bc I haven't played this game in a year and can't remember what I did anymore. You might just have to try again a few times
Played this game for the first time in 2014, only JUST got this achievement today. I've done so many playthroughs, and I just never got this one. Thought I got all of them a few times before, but I must have just been missing some every single time. Until today!
Followed this guide for the second time today. The first time was to get the achievement. The second time was to get the semi-rare line of dialogue that only plays on the last camera if you knock the cameras off the wall when GLaDoS isn't already talking.
To anyone who hasn’t yet watched the “Rarest dialogue in Portal” video dive, I’d suggest looking it up as well as following this walkthrough with the knowledge from that vid in mind to get the best experience that the devs intended. In other words make sure that each time you knock down a cam, let the GladOs dialogue for that cam number finish playing BEFORE knocking down the next camera. It takes a little restraint but its best to let the audio finish each time. Don’t do ANYTHING that might interrupt the games code responsible for tracking the dialogue. This includes activating buttons, moving to areas that trigger further cues, completing the current test chamber, and of course knocking down the next camera to quickly. I’d recommend beating the game first at least once so you don’t have to worry about the dialogue tracking until your second playthrough and just enjoy the game first.
Pro tip. If you save the game frequently when doing this challenge you don't have to restart the entire run if you lock yourself out of an area with a camera accidentally. It also auto saves sometimes, so you can also load back to there if you make a mistake.
I was trynna do the cameras and transmissions at the same time and was so sure I got them all but on the ch.9 I missed the second last one so now I have to start all over again 😃
I know I'm probably 8 months late, but if you're able to figure out which camera you missed, you could most likely load an autosave from that chamber and get it, but you would have to play through the rest of the chambers afterward.
For some reason i did this (all in one sitting) and it didnt work... it didnt say anything when i got each one and it doesnt even have a count on my steam page
didn't know you cant quick load, bcs i beated the game twice and destroyed all cameras and didn't get the achievement but without quick loading i got thx :)
I’ve done everything, I’ve even done the exact steps in the video, I can’t 100% portal because it won’t give me the achievement. It just refuses for some reason. I’ve got every achievement besides this one because it just doesn’t work. It even says in the achievements menu in Portal that I got 33/33 but it just shows the locked icon
if u missed camera 32 too bc u were dumb like me, u can still get it by standing inside the portal in the wall and waiting for another floating platform then doing it again but this time jump and portal on the camera that didnt make any sense did it
Он мне не засчитывает последнюю камеру, а не знаю какую. Пожалуйста помогите, я уже пятый раз портал перепрохожу за сегодня, я уже знаю наизусть положение камер, спасите.

Thank you so much! I just got the achievement
can you still save and load?
@@koi3824 Not sure. I personally wouldn't take my chance.
@@CocoTheMii it works. i missed one, loaded my save to break it and i still got the achievement at the end. i did it one playthrough tho.
@@nyxielia Good to know! I'll update my comment.
You deserve more. Video design is beautiful. GLaD to see Portal still alive.

reading this while being on the last chamber after skipping levels with chapter select...
@@MightyOwl_01 oof that's happened to me for a few achievements I've done on games lol

Good video. Simplistic, straight-forward and an easy-to-follow guide. You deserve more subs my friend.
I believe you have to this on one play through, as I just did skipping from level to level and I didn't't get the achievement
can i start from testchamber 2 not 1?
Makes sense, as Steam doesn't show a progress meter for this achievement.
@@CocoTheMii it does when you actually take the cameras down. it says "x/33"
You can even see it when he's in chamber 5

@@ika32 Thank you, I did it now, I guess it didn't work because I cheated in the levels without any camera 🫣
Loading saves doesn't do any harm. You can load your saves just fine.
This guide was really helpful! thanks for making it!

I did all this to the end and had 32/33.
(And yes I have finished the game once)
OUCH
I just did the same thing
2 years later.. Just completed it.
I keep getting 31/33 so I gave up and looked up a walk through lol
Thanks. Quick and concise.
Thanks for this vid brother
I missed one. ONE GOD DAMN CAMERA
The pain.
Glados got tired of explaining not to destroy them she just said vital testing apparatus destroyed
Nice video design
thx so much made my live so much easier!
I was trynna do the cameras and transmissions at the same time and was so sure I got them all but on the ch.9 I missed the second last one so now I have to start all over again 😃
I thought my run was cooked when i realized i forgot about one camera in chamber 13 but thankfully portal is glitchy so i came back for the camera
ah ok so you don't have to destroy the cameras on non-conductive surfaces
FINALLY I FULLY COMPLETED PORTAL
Vital testing apparatus destroyed!
I think it makes sense why glados voice glitches when you destroy a camera, Cameras monitor the test subject. And with out them. Glados cant see
i got to chamber 19 before noticing i missed one camera from a couple chambers back that i couldn't return to ; - ;
I know I'm probably 8 months late, but if you're able to figure out which camera you missed, you could most likely load an autosave from that chamber and get it, but you would have to play through the rest of the chambers afterward.
thanks my man
you need wayyy more subs
thank you so much
For some reason i did this (all in one sitting) and it didnt work... it didnt say anything when i got each one and it doesnt even have a count on my steam page
great guide
I missed one camera at the end now I have to restart the whole game because my game did not save
same
Yes! I finished all of my achievements on portal 1 gg
Thanks!
i did it
thank you a lot
how do you get the portal gun at the start of chamber 02
console commands
You go back
great! thank you!
Do you have to complete the chamber for it to count?
респект і уважуха тобі)

Thank you :)
thx man
Are you not allowed to quick load? Because I did this twice and it didnt work either time
same wtf?

What does she say apparatus instead of camera?
I missed test chamber 11 1000 times
Now the only thing missing are the challenges with least steps. Which are even less fun than this archievment...
i did everything and i didn't get an achivement and i only need camera shy to 100% the game
why
and yes i did do this all in 1 run
same here
thanks
Vital Testing Apparatus
Does it work if you die in the middle, or do you have to restart?
Doesn't matter if you die, but you must finish a level.
@@durexiq1847 Does it work when i play new game from the chamber 00? i finished the game twice and still can't get it but i destroyed them all like in the video
@@wrightistheidiot same
I've been playing this game for years on my Xbox 360 and yet every camera I've shot down doesn't save on my achievements.
you have to do it all in play through
Vital testing apparatus destroyed
I did 32/33 ;-;
I destroyed all 33, twice, none did I get the achievement
pro tip: type sv_cheats 1; noclip; sv_cheats 0 into console

?
thanks ffam
i hate that you have to do it all in one run, makes it 10x more tedious
un capo
I got 32/33
I got 32 🥲
Prob the worst achievement in portal 1
