Aperture Science Laser Test
This is map number 2 in my serie "Aperture Science Test" This one is a little bit short. But i hope the puzzle is just a little hard. You can request a solution if you need it. I learned a lot from making this map. Thats why it got so short. I used some different stuff in it.
RB-TAM update 23
RADELITES BEE 2 ADDON MOD What is Rb-tam? Rb-tam is a mod made to add many of the more unique testing elements you might have seen over the past few years in custom maps. From paint guns to portal detectors and many more amazing elements that I have found created by fellow users like yourself I have collected them and worked with many awesome mappers to give you a mod that lets you use their amazing items in your very own peti editor(with quite a few of my own items of course. How do you use this mod you might ask? Its very simple, all you do is install bee 2(it can be found on this website) Then download this and follow the embedded instructions Have fun, also thanks to all you awesome people who were kind enough to share your creations to be incorporated in this mod. When you create an AWESOME map with this mod make sure to copy this hashtag inside your description of your map #RB-TAM link to a collection of simple maps made with my mod for bee2http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=202463960 -planned updates- While I cannot update items in the mod at this time I do plan to make a webpage for the mod and maybe add an eh little treasure hunt eheh. Also plan to create new icon for mod.
BEE2 Addons
My collection of items for the BEE2. These items mainly are rearranged or special versions of existing items. Some help is available in the right-click info panel, but consult the Readme for full instructions. All non-logic items are fully styled for all the default styles. It is compatible with Radelite's addons, providing styled versions for the Ratman Style. This includes my Refurbished Style, a hybrid of Clean and 1950s style similar to the Coop Course 5. I also have a modified version of 1980s style, with a damaged Enrichment Sphere showing the surrounding Test Shaft. I now have an Overgrown Style, replicating the dilapidated Aperture seen in the first few levels of the singleplayer campaign. There is also a debug Unlocked style to allow adding or deleting the mandatory entry/exits and observation rooms. Be careful with this! Thanks to Skotty (High Energy Pellets, Bumbleballs and Catapult Cubes), Moth(Bumbleballs), SoundLogic(Catapult Cubes) and PortalCombat (Sphere Cannon) for creating the original versions of some items, which I have made PTI compatible and restyled. You'll need 7-zip to extract the archive. See the GitHub repository for WIP items, styles and changes. I don't advise using these files unless you are willing to have your maps break.

When the next update is released, the readme will show a message (only when actually open). * v39: - Added files for some checkpoint instances. - Adjusted lighting in P1 Style Checkpoint, and changed droppers to use P1 style versions (both checkpoints). - Added the second door for P1 Style Chamberlocks (Whoops.) - Checkpoints will not close their front door if an object is placed between it and the fizzler. - Players will slide off of the camera in Refurbished Small Observation Rooms.

Felix Griffin's Editor Mod (FGEMOD)
An editor for the editor, which allows you to choose your test elements. Includes at least as many new ones as there are originals. Includes HMW's mod and the BEEMOD elements. Note: There's currently an error unless you have this package installed: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/51831059/Portal ... _v5_src.7z . Sorry about that.
PTI element: Living panels, 64x64 and 128x128
Wacky panels that do stuff. 64x64 and 128x128 sizes are provided. Inputs: * Start deployed -- Inverts the direction of the panel's animation. * Timer & Autodrop & Start Open -- Choose which animation to play, see below. * Button type -- See below Button types (64x64 panel): * Weighted = White or black panel surface, depending on whether it's positioned on a portalable surface or not. * Cube = Glass surface. * Sphere = Intangible skeleton: Just the skeleton of the panel, without surface, also does not clip the player. Button types (128x128 panel): * Weighted = White or black panel surface, depending on whether it's positioned on a portalable surface or not. * Cube = Glass surface. * Sphere = Portal 1 style metal wall surface. Use signal inputs / connections to activate the element. The panels contain a built-in AND gate just like the standard elements do. Of course you don't need to activate the element at all. Just affix it in a particular pose to provide a platform of your choice. There are 68 different animations provided. The animation is selected using the Timer value, the Start Open checkbox and the Autodrop checkbox. The list of animations is detailed in the README file provided in the distribution package. It is rather difficult to try to video-document all the animations that this object can play, but here's a sample picture which should serve to at least pique some curiosity. Unless you choose the "skeleton" type of panel, this panel is fully blocking and can be even used as a lift / piston platform for objects and for the player. The arm of the panel is only partially tangible, and only in some animations. It is a bit difficult to generalise for the set of animations present here, so the tangibility is disabled for most animations where the heuristic method does not work nicely. The object also does not contain a crush kill trigger, a portal fizzler, an object fizzler, nor a portal bumper. This is intentional. But it may lack other things that are wise to have (hint brushes? shrug), because I just began learning to use Hammer a few days ago, and I wouldn't yet know anything about those. Note: These panels have the "adjustment gizmo" which allows them to be placed at an offset much like the laser components -- except that it does not work. Sorry about that! Just use always the center position. If anyone has good ideas of how to fix it, it would be welcome. (This comes from the 5 positions method. The 8 positions method does not work, because the embedding pit would not be relocated correctly together with the element.) However, you can use the adjustment gizmo to rotate the element around. Just point it towards some edge of the voxel, and then place it back to the center. The object will retain the new orientation. Note: The platform may move within the first second when the map loads. Sorry about that. This may be fixed in a future version. The panel contains from 21 to 25 entities depending on version. The skeleton version has the fewest entities, and the large non-glass ones have the most. And finally, the in-editor symbols for this object are currently the laser emitter for the small panel, and the piston top for the large panel. I have not yet developed the skills to change the in-editor graphics. Download here: http://bisqwit.iki.fi/kala/ptal2/livingpanels.zip

The Opening Hour
Now that GLADoS is gone, you are the only one who can still keep tests running for who knows what happens if they stop. ____ My first "big" project. The map is a mix of various Portal 2 map styles: factory, bts, chambers etc. Workshop page: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/f ... =380441134 Enjoy!
Take-Off
Take-Off is a large, highly tested and polished custom level for Portal 1. Brimming with big secrets, custom models, and custom textures, Take-Off is almost certainly unlike any Portal map you have ever played. The observant player will find that the scope of Take-Off is much greater than just a Portal test-chamber. This map is designed to be a moderate challenge for experienced players (Portal, Portal: The Flash Version/Still Alive, at least.) The difficulty ramps up significantly within the level. Solutions to puzzles NEVER require cheats or exploits, and all playable parts of the map are designed and tested to be reachable without cheats. Once figured out, the solutions to puzzles in this map are designed to be as easy to execute as possible. However, given the types of puzzles in Take-Off, some finesse with control will be required. The required control should not be a problem for experienced players. Take-Off includes the three challenges: Time, Steps and Portals. Getting the gold in Time and Steps will likely not pose a huge challenge for those who have completed the level, and are experienced in these types of challenges. The gold in Portals, however, is a serious challenge, and will be very difficult for virtually all players. I assure you, it IS possible to get the gold without cheats, just very hard. Aesthetically, Take-Off is deliberately clean. I have, in general, avoided grungy accents and opted for a "perfect," streamlined look. Except where noted in the in-game credits, I created all custom props from scratch. Except where noted, I either created custom materials from scratch, or modified Valve's materials. I think that those who play this map to its full potential, will find that it is a unique experience they won't soon forget. : ) Enjoy! Sword of Apollo [Note: Take-Off v1.1 is identical to v1.0, except that one extra portal cleanser has been added to remove an exploit I just discovered.] [Note: Take-Off 1.2 fixes the fact that the player could put a portal on the inside of the raised glass box in the large chamber. This is not an intended solution to getting to the last button, but an embarrassingly bad oversight on my part.] [Note: Take-Off 1.3 has a slightly longer timer late in the level, a few exploit fixes, and secrets that are made slightly more obvious. One green fizzler that used to dissolve objects no longer does.] [Note: Take-Off 1.4 is identical to 1.3, except that one part of a secret puzzle has been made easier and hopefully less frustrating to do, (physically.) Take-Off 1.4.1 fixes a couple of model texture issues in the secrets.] [Note: Take-Off 1.5 adds a functionality bug fix for secrets. If you downloaded v1.5 prior to 6/24/11, please redownload and reinstall, because I accidentally left items in the map that I used for testing. The prior release of 1.5 definitely will NOT play as intended.] [Note: In Take-Off 1.6, a secret puzzle now works exactly as intended, (instead of approximately.) A portion of this puzzle is now slightly easier.] [Note: In Take-Off 1.7, a couple of unintended solutions in the main level have been eliminated (or as close as possible.)] [Note: v1.7.1 makes getting to one of the secrets easier than in all previous versions. The update to 1.7 had the side-effect of making it excessively hard to get to.]
