PREY_SDK_2006-10-13.zip |
Description: Prey Software Development Kit (SDK)
Format: ZIP
Size: 3940 KB
If you're looking to develop mods for Prey, you're going to want the SDK. Aimed at more serious fans of the game, the Prey SDK includes all of the game code (for building your own Game DLL), as well as some code examples/tutorials which will explain a few of the basic things you should know before diving into the code-base.
- This is the second release, dated October 13, 2006. The first release, dated October 9, 2006, was almost identical to the second, but it (mistakenly?) included actual source code for the collision model and can be downloaded here.
- Neither of the two versions include Maya binaries or sample assets, because the ones used in the Doom3 SDK can also be used for Prey reference. The Doom 3 SDK can be downloaded here, or locally, here.
- This code is meant to be compiled with Visual C++ 2005 Express Edition. The package can be downloaded here or here.
- Registering Visual C++ 2005 Express Edition has been impossible for years. Without registration, you would normally be able to use it for 30 days only, but you prevent it from expiring, by following the guide here.

portalwrench.zip |
Description: Portal Wrench, by SnoopJeDi and deltaphc
Format: ZIP
Size: 2 KB
The first of two items Scott Miller wanted to have in Prey (actually, he wanted a portal gun), but Human Head could not implement because it would have required six more months of work. Of course, the real problem was not the item itself, which was obtained with a simple script modification, but modifying the levels in order to accommodate it.
- Locate your Prey executable
- Open the base subdirectory
- There, create a script subdirectory and open it (or just open it, if it already exists)
- Unzip the archive into that directory.
To use the Portal Wrench in game:
- Select the wrench from the weapons
- Click the right mouse button once to mark the point where the first portal will appear
- Move to where you want the second portal to appear and click the right mouse button again. Both portals will open at the same time
- To close the portals, click the right mouse button a third time

Description: Gravity Gun, by Dafama2k7
Format: ZIP
Size: 17607 KB
The other item Scott Miller wanted to have in Prey, but which only received a partial implementation as the tractor beam in the shuttle. This can be used together with the Portal Wrench, but if you want to reach the wrench while this mod is active, you'll need to press 1 on your keyboard (as opposed to using the mouse wheel).
Repackaged archive (the original used to change the language and the keyboard layout, this one does not).
- Locate your Prey executable
- Unzip the archive into that directory.
To use the Gravity Gun in game:
- In the main menu screen, click on Mods and load gravitygun_prey
- In game, activate the console (left Ctrl + left Alt + tilde)
- Enter the command: give all and press Return
- Use the mouse wheel to scroll past the launcher or before the rifle
- Aim the Gravity Gun with the mouse, left click to grab the desired object
- Right click to launch the object you grabbed.
