contest_108 wrips apreture unknown
A short but fun three level map This map includes threes levels that have from basic to expert portal uses' and puzzle solving. I am certain that you will find this very fun.
Aldez's Test Chamber (contest 0108 version)
My first complete bonus map. This is my first map for Portal. The aim was to learn and include everything you can see and do in the official bonus maps. bmz file bsp with embedded custom files portal, time and steps challenges
Contest0108_Nameless_SimpleChamber
Short chamber, quality over quantity! This map is very short, I hope its length doesn.t cause any conflict with the contest. Its my first completed map in hammer and my 4th attempted map. I tried to make it as detailed as I could but I began near the end of January and I'm still learning a lot, so I hope you like it and any constructive criticism will be appreciated!

Portal map :P Great Portal map with Nice lighting and 3 Fun challenges for any player to do.
Thinking Outside the Cube
Challenging puzzles. . .new physics Surely, you do not like semi-challenging puzzles? Or flinging? Areas with new physics behavior that changes your Portal strategies? Of course not; nobody does! Terrible stuff. But if you wanted to waste your time on such things. . . . . .then try "Thinking outside the Cube". - 3 areas, 13+ challenges. (have about 18 challenges planned) - above-average difficulty (too early in development to state "very challenging", but be warned) - introducing new physics behavior (at least I havent seen it in a Portal map yet) (NOT gravity-related) - new GLADOS voices/commentary (I got tired of reusing the old stuff) - occasional music by The Hamster Alliance to set the mood. :) - first in a series BetaVersion2 ========= - Demos for all areas now present - Much more signage to help people navigate area1's open room; make sure to look for descriptive scrawlings to tell you where to go, what to do, etc. - Move a few walls, eliminated at least 6 ways to avoid doing the intended puzzles (man, you playtesters are inventive!) IMPORTANT NOTE: this map will fall flat on its face if you do not put the REQUIRED surfaceproperties scripts into your portal/portal/scripts directory. (They are in the ZIP). Sadly, I can bundle everything else into the map itself, but for some reason it refuses to use the surfaceproperties files that are bundled within the bsp. Only the Hammer deity (Thor?) knows why. . .but if someone could tell me how to do this, I would appreciate it.
Aperture Secondary labs - Room 01
My first map ever. Please give useful feedback! My first map ever, not only for Portal, but in general. It is the first in a series of 7 to 10 (don't know exactly yet) I am planning to do in order to learn hammer. This one focuses on buttons and doors, with simple flings. It is probably not really fun or challenging, but remember this is both my first map and room 1 in the series. The rooms will follow a progressive difficulty curve. The series takes place in aperture science secondary labs. In this lab, GlaDos "daughter" Glados II begins her own experiments. I am according lot of thought in creating new sarcastic lines for this junior sadistic AI. :) Planned improvements (any advice for making those will be gladly appreciated) : -Customize the "01" sign -Import a custom overlay to make the "aperture laboratories" logo on the black wall white. -Import custom sounds for GlaDos II speak. - Slight visual improvements - correct the tubes in the pit (I know they are wrong, but I was eager to get opinions before going further). -Listen to your advices :)
Portal Life
Portal Life is single player based maps. Portal Life is a series of maps that is mainly based around Aperture Science. These maps are more based around single player than puzzles. If you find Portal Life 01 and 02 easy, 03 will put your portals to the test. These maps have taken me months to make, with Portal Life being my first real map and has been greatly updated since I started it.
Tunneling Chamber 01 [v02]
An advanced technique map. Tunneling is the act of firing a portal towards a surface while the player is part way through an existing pair of portals (e.g. standing in a pair of wall portals, jumping into a floor portal) and then moving into position (e.g. backing out of the initial pair of portals) before the fired portal hits its target. While this map is not a tutorial on tunneling, it is a safe environment (player cannot die) that requires the player to use two tunneling techniques in order to progress through two simple rooms before being met with a unique tunneling-assisted fling puzzle. [v01]: ? Initial Release [v02]: ? Re-packed the .rar for easier installation. ? Compiled with the parameter '-StaticPropPolys' to improve shadows, esp. around the elevators. ? Added GLaDOS speech: entry, nags, success and detaching cameras. ? Drastically improved the visual design of and lighting in both stairwells. ? Added additional geometric detail to the metal walls throughout the chamber. ? In the second puzzle room, the trigger that lowers the lift was adjusted to prevent players from triggering it by jumping from the room?s floor. ? Minor optimization to geometry throughout the chamber.

Portal Raw Level Signage (PSD file)
A PSD image file to assist in creating level signs This PSD file contains all the basic elements used in the large level signs at the start of each portal level. Each element is on it's own layer to allow the elements to be hidden or made transparent so that the "lighting up" animations for these sign can be quickly and easily created. Please see the readme file for more information. v1.0 - initial release v1.1 - changed to use the actual large number font use in portal - added a tutorial on creating the signs in photoshop
[WIP]Portal: Facility Advanced v1.00
[WIP]Portal: Facility Advanced v1.00 Version 1 of the map Portal Advanced, this is almost done but needs a bit of work that'll take a while, so i guess it could be a beta.
