Not very difficult but indeed need some time to figure out. A good map in general. But the button on the platform in chamber 1(near the blue gel) doesn't seem to be of any use, and I found getting the cube covered in blue gel and washing it once and once again a little bit frustrating. But other things are fun. So I give you 4/5. 
the map was good overall. One thing to think about would be the size of the second room. I just felt it was too large, or perhaps should have been outdoors. the large walking distances were abit too much. Otherwise, good work!
Thank you for testing my map
I work on another map, and I want to do better
And your comments will help me to do better
(I'm French and I'm not very good in English
thank you for your understanding)
I am stuck on the final part of this level, I got the Excursion funnel running, however I cannot figure out how to get the cube in the button and reach the ending door.
Basically a paint playground with goals, will keep you busy for a good 10 mins mindlessly splashing gel everywhere. Puzzles themselves are fun! But level geometry (cutouts platforms) and skinning need improvements.

||Put some blue gel on the ramp below the funnel. Then use the funnel to hit the ceiling, from the 2nd room white floor. Up there, put the funnel output portal to the floor of the upper platform with the cube receptacle.
Place the cube on the target panel below the upside down receptacle way above. Jump in the funnel with the laser cube, and put it in the receptacle of the above platform. Now shoot the funnel output to the cube on the target below. It will fly up to the upside down receptacle.||
Just played it again. Still fun, but the second room is kind of a letdown. Don't get me wrong, the puzzle is good. It's just what with all the ramps and gels available, them being a red herring seems kind of a letdown. Expected some weird acceleration/flinging, but you can do without quite easily (well, 1 easy fling is necessary); I don't even know if it was intended to be a red herring or not.
This is my solution:

I used the ramp on second room totally in unintended way, i think..
Nice work!
but maybe this solution is faster

One thing I noticed, when I had my camera facing the water spout in the back, my FPS dropped by about 10. It may be because it's pouring quicker than normal spouts. I've never had any kind of FPS hit in the game until I ran this map. My computer's fairly powerful as well.
Ah, just opened my console and saw the following message repeated about 20 times in Red text:
[Blobulator] Recycling fragments to draw to prevent deadlock. Expect visual corruptions. Please set your Effect Detail to a lower setting.
Maybe there's some kind of glitch.
I'm running the game at max settings, 1920x1080 windowed-noborder.
new and final version of my map, with one test chamber add
http://cloud.steampowered.com/ugc/59694 ... F9ED08403/
okay, i have no idea how to solve that with only 1 cube.
Also no idea what the little thing with the other cube is.
Didnt know there was a new version.The added chamber is seriously hard at least so far lol.Time for a break and try again later
I also am completely stuck in the room with the vent. I got the cube out from the turret. I cannot figure out a way to get it on the button in the vent. I was able to put it into the top opening, but it just blew out the bottom one (I think it does; I've done it 3 times and didn't see it coming out the top.) The timer on the vent seems much too short to accomplish anything.
So anyway, I need some hints. I find it hard to believe that this map has been out this long and no one claims to have solved it.
Well it seems obvious to me why no one has solved this map, parts are broken.

Here i have easily taken the cube to the top of the grid and hit the button with it, as you can see from the orange sign, yet the shield is still up. No point continuing until something like this is fixed.
I don't know if anyone will follow this thread anymore, but the map did work till the end for me. It is, however, the hardest map I ever played (the last room), although perhaps I haven't used the intended solution. I never managed to get the cube through the upper vent, but I did through the bottom vent, the switch cut the wind for a while but you have to be insanely fast. This is probably not the intended solution because I never used the faith plate (though I managed to activate it, I guess this may be to get it through the upper vent and then you have to cut the wind just as it gets into the tube). If anyone want to know in more detail how to get to the end, just ask.
has anyone solved this map with one cube yet? Can we get a walkthrough? Even for the second room, I can't get it with one cube!
okay, i've finally gotten the door open in the second room (the room after the two downpours of orange and blue gel). I can only find one cube, this room is impossible without 2 cubes - there is no way to solve it. you can't have the door switch open with one cube and then walk through it - help?

You have to bring the cubes from room 1 to room 2 (and 3). Try again and if you are really stuck, I can put up a video. BTW I remember you can skip loads of puzzles in this map, like not using some gels IIRC.

Help with the cube thingy:
There are 2 cubes, one normal and one reflecto-cube. I presume it is the normal one you did not find, it is hidden underneath the big ramp in the first room. The cube makes a turret voice to attract your attention (you did not hear it?)

PS: to avoid any confusion, you can't bring the cube(s) from room 2 to 3 straigthaway, you need to solve some things in room 3 first.
Sigh, I figured out how to get the cube into the upper vent in room 3... but that timer is WAY too short. Overall, room 3 needs better lighting. Room 1 and 2 are just fine.
Okay, so I figured it out with what I believe to be the the proper sequence for room 3.
First thing is to place a portal behind the timer switch and then another portal on the wall behind the air vents. Get the cube and place it on the round switch to activate the faith plate. Then, have the faith plate throw you and in midair grab the cube off the platform, quickly release it so it goes into the top vent and then as your going through the portal that you placed on the wall behind the vent switch the timer which allows the cube to fall into the switch in the bottom of the air vents.
This one took me about a week to solve, damn hard !
I have pictures, sorry no videos - I don't know how to make them.
I'll gladly make a video if someone tells me how to do so.

Here is a video walkthrough for the third room
To benjedi420vt: sorry it took me so long but I bet you are now happy to have solved it on your own!

http://cloud.steampowered.com/ugc/65099 ... 0540E8B6F/for this pick, this is an easter egg and you found 1/3 of that continue...look at the first place of compagnion cube there is changed...but isn't necessary for finish my mapsorry for my english again
PS: i forget to said, i work on a mappack portal 2 !named Portal 2: The corporationsteam Group : http://steamcommunity.com/groups/P2Corporation
""
I solved the last room by shooting a portal between the gap in the emancipation field and the doorway and then using the gel to do what I want. Also I don't know if it's intentional but you can shoot another portal on this ceiling in the last room by shooting above it.
